Do you ship?
You have a desire to taste these tangy little snacks, we will find a way to get them to you! Shipping charges vary depending on orders, additional costs will be included for shipping and handling.
How long do your pickles last?
Debatable. You ask some, one night! Kidding! Pickles have a long shelf life. These have been tested for a year and then some. Once you open the jar it is best to preserve them by refrigeration, otherwise store in a cool dark place in your home like a basement pantry room. When refridgerated they will last 3 months.
Should I keep my Mickles in the brine?
Yes, the brine is like the blanket that tucks them in. Oxygen can cause them to spoil.
What are your wholesale or retail options
Please email us for wholesale or retail orders.
Are Mickles Gluten Free or Vegan?
We cook in a dedicated facility that caters to Celiac, so we're both Gluten free and Vegan
GMOs? Fat-free?
We work with Houweling's. We choose a strong product and look for healthy alternatives, our organic cukes come locally sourced and contain no GMOs. Mickles chooses to provide healthy options for our customers. Local Organic produce first, this includes our Cukes, Tomatoes, Peaches, and Apples. The Pears and Onions and Peppers vary in sourcing.
Any sugar in Mickles?
There is sugar in Mickles yes, this is how the natural fermentation process works. A by-product is good bacteria in every jar.
I have a nut allergy, are Mickles ok for me?
Mickles products do not contain nuts although there are other businesses in the facility that do. We can't guarantee there will no be cross contamination.
Can my Mickles go across the border to the US?
Yes, Pickles are not considered produce once they are in the brine. Therefore they can travel the border. You should pack in your checked luggage due to the brine though ;)
How can I exchange my jar?
Every jar returned will save you a $1 on your next order! Save your jars and we can pick them up on your next delivery or pick up.
