Vegetables For Pickling

Pickling has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity in the past decade or so - maybe because it's a frugal and easy way to make your vegetables last longer, and the results can be enjoyed for weeks and months after the fact! Whilst pickling itself is a relatively easy and straightforward process, perhaps the most basic and important starting point is to ensure that you've picked the best possible vegetable variety. Whether you're pickling beetroot, pickling onions, pickling chillies or shallots, ultimately if you've invested in growing the best veg varieties, the chances are that at the end of the process you'll have some pretty spectacular home-made produce.

That's where we come in. At Victoriana, we're advocates of home-grown produce through and through. That's why we've put the time and effort into producing a list of vegetables best suited for pickling - all vegetable plants listed within this category have been tried and tested by Victoriana's own Shirley family.

Whilst vegetable seeds for pickling are generally available throughout the year, we supply our vegetable plants in season, typically as compost block-grown plants. All plants for pickling are delivered direct from our UK nursery, and delivered quickly throughout the UK mainland.
