Pickles by the Jar

Calef’s has always been known for our sour and dill pickles. Calef’s Pickles are almost as famous as our “Snappy Old Cheese” and the pickle barrel is an iconic part of the store. Calef’s sour and dill pickles can even be ordered online! The 12 Pickles in a Bucket is our personal pickle barrel, containing a dozen of our famous pickles. We ship out a lot of these buckets. These buckets are fun to send and receive. Grab a bucket for your next BBQ or outdoor summer event.

Looking for a different kind of pickle? Maine Homestead Pickles, made in Lyman, Maine has some great options! Maine Homestead started as a way to use up the extra cucumbers from the garden. With way too many pickles to eat, Maine Homestead started expanding their recipes and taking their homemade pickles to local markets. A humble start for these wonderful products. Maine Homestead pickles are now a staple for many local households. Try Maine Homestead Bread & Butter Pickles for a traditional style crunchy sweet pickle or Maine Homestead Sweet and Spicy Pickles for eat out of the jar pickles.

All you need to do is add vinegar, water, cucumbers then shake it all up and refrigerate for 3 days. And, there you have it, fresh made pickles!
