Why Alchemy

Locally Sourced

We support our local food economy by sourcing directly from farms within our Southern Ontario region.   This could be an urban farm in Toronto or a farmer as far as 200 kms.

Grown Organically

We purchase the majority of our produce from certified organic family farms in Southern Ontario and all of our retail products are certifed organic. We also buy vegetables from smaller scale sustainable farms that practice organic methods. These smaller farms may choose not to be certified organic because they sell directly to their customers which provides confidence from farm to table. Ask us for more information about our farmers and their growing practices.

Living Cultures

Our products are traditionally fermented with unrefined sea salt, creating nutrient dense, living foods with complex flavours. This transformation also creates probiotics and bio-available nutrients. Our products are unpasteurized and no vinegar is added.

Always Vegan

Our products are always vegan. Plant based, no dairy, no fish sauce.

Free From Gluten

Our products are gluten free, but we do not pay for third-party GF certification.

Hand Packed

Every small batch we make is packed into jars by hand in our kitchen. We are involved in the entire process to make sure your pickles are amazing! You may notice our jars are firmly packed giving you great value and longer life to the products.

Keep In The Fridge

Fermented food and drinks are not shelf stable. Traditionally, this was a way to preserve the harvest through the winter months. Refrigeration slows down the fermentation process allowing you to enjoy the pickles at optimum flavour. **Use a clean utensil to submerge pickles under brine and keep kraut/kimchi tightly packed.

Bulge Happens

Fermentation creates probiotics, complex flavours, and carbon dioxide. In our drinks, this means delicate bubbles of natural carbonation. In our pickles it means the lid may bulge or you may see some fizzing upon opening the jar. This is normal and safe.

Batches May Vary

Because of our direct relationships with local farmers, our products may be influenced by growing conditions, weather, seasonal availability, or kitchen temperatures. Cucumbers may come in varying sizes, and carrots may taste sweeter in the fall. Winter cabbage is more dense and crunchy than cabbage grown in summer. Our products taste best before the date on the jar. They do not expire, they will just change over time. Some people enjoy the stronger flavours of vintage pickles – taste for yourself and decide.
