Piedmont Provisions handcrafts small batch preserves, herbal vinegar infusions, old-fashioned drinking vinegars (shrubs), ferments, pickles, relishes and all things saucy. Using regionally sourced and organic ingredients whenever possible, we create our preserves using traditional methods with hand-hammered copper pots, which allow the true fruit flavor to shine without being overly processed. We never use any preservatives, synthetic materials, or high-fructose corn syrup. Our ingredients are fresh and simple.
Based in Athens, GA, Piedmont Provisions is named after the region from which we source our produce and where we make our home, the Piedmont. Our mission is to provide the community with organic, heirloom, and locally sourced food products that invoke memories of childhood, grandmother’s kitchen, and a time when people took things a little more slowly while enjoying the bountiful harvest of each season.
