About Us
Piedmont Provisions is based in lovely Athens, GA.
Piedmont Provisions handcrafts small batch preserves, herbal vinegar infusions, old-fashioned drinking vinegars (shrubs), bitters, pickles, relishes and all things fermented. 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.
About our Ingredients
We grow most of the herbs and peppers that we preserve, sourcing what we don’t grow from Georgia-based farms or nearby distributors when needed. Our mission is to support local growers, reduce transportation costs, and lessen the environmental impact by sourcing organically and sustainably. We prefer to use organic and Certified Naturally Grown produce whenever possible, but make substitutions from farms that practice sustainable and good growing techniques when necessary. We try our best to strike a balance between the use of organic foods and support of the local food economy. Customer demand far exceeds what is available locally; once we exhaust the local supply we must move on to other sources. Our sourcing tree is as follows: Northeast Georgia Farmers, Georgia State Farmers, Regional Farmers, and sourcing of items from the closest location possible.
