Our Mission...
Bringing Back
The Tradition of Canning and Pickling
Canning and pickling have been an American
tradition since homesteaders arrived in the new world. Today,
preserving fruits and vegetables has become a lost art. Root
Cellar Preserves now offers a variety of delicious pickled
products once commonplace, but now hard to find.
Root Cellar Preserves honors the tradition of wholesome foods
made with integrity and craftsmanship. We select produce and
pickled products from small family producers who carry on the
tradition of pickling with only the finest brines and spices,
using traditional pickling processes to make the best tasting
products available.
Preserving for a Great Cause
Root Cellar Preserves is committed to the preservation of early
American homesteads. Many of these buildings, which represent
the historical foundation of our country are giving way to
disrepair, neglect and rural development. Root Cellar Preserves
has established a fund from its proceeds to support local
community efforts to preserve these homesteads for future
generations.
We hope you will enjoy the wholesome goodness of our favorite
recipes, while supporting an important cause.
