Our Story 2.0 (HABIB)

If you had told us that we’d eventually start a pickle company, we’d have laughed at you. But as life often goes, one thing led to another, and our pickling hobby spiraled out of control, evolving from a part-time obsession into a full-time business.

It all started with us making pickles just for fun. Then one day, as we bit into a batch of what would later become our Jalapeño Honey Dills, we had a “Pickle Epiphany.” The pickles had an incredible depth of flavor, unbelievable crunch, and gorgeous presentation. They were unlike anything we had ever tasted before. We were hooked, and that’s when our hobby started turning into an obsession. So we set out on the journey to create the best products of their kind in the best way possible.

For the next year and a half, we spent our free time dreaming up new pickle recipes and honing our craft. After giving out a batch as the favor at Justin’s wedding, the guests' feedback confirmed that we were onto something special.

In 2012, we dove in head first by joining the local farmers market circuit and quitting our jobs soon after. Telling friends and family that we left our jobs to “make pickles” - and maintain a straight face while saying it - was not easy! But, our passion for pursuing this dream was only matched by our stubbornness.

As time progressed, our small product lineup grew, leading us to the happy accident that is now our famed Bloody Mary Mix. Our pickling process results in a delicious and refreshing cucumber-infused water, so instead of dumping it down the drain we built a Bloody Mary mix recipe highlighting it as the star ingredient. What we didn't know is that people would eventually recognize us for our Bloody Mary Mix more than our pickles, causing us to joke that we're no longer just a pickle company, but a Bloody Mary company with a pickle problem!

All these years later, we are still pushing boundaries and choosing the road less traveled. It's what motivates us and fuels our creativity.

Thank you for being a part of this wild adventure and making all of this possible. We're so grateful to everyone who has supported us along the way.
