National Pickle Day

Celebrate National Pickle Day with a Pickle Party!

National Pickle Day is on November 14th, and it’s time to start thinking about how to celebrate this much-loved holiday. Whether you’re a fan of dill pickles, sweet pickles, or anything in between, there are plenty of ways to honor the beloved pickle. Here are just a few ideas for celebrating National Pickle Day.

Pickle-Themed Snacks and Drinks

What’s a celebration without food? The beauty of having a pickle-themed party is that the snacks and drinks practically make themselves! Set out some jars of your favorite pickles for guests to snack on throughout the day (or night). Serve up some classic pickled egg dishes or whip up some delicious dill potato salad. If you’re looking for something sweet, consider making a batch of tasty pickled peaches.

Pickling Games

If you’re looking for something more interactive than just snacking on pickled treats, why not organize some games? A game of “pickleball” (a combination of badminton and tennis) is sure to get everyone in the festive spirit. Or perhaps mix it up with an old favorite like “pickup sticks,” but with—you guessed it—pickles instead! Of course, no party would be complete without a good trivia game. Test your guests’ knowledge with questions about pickles from around the world. Who knows? You might even learn something new yourself!

Create Your Own Pickles

Pickling isn’t as hard as it seems! To really get into the spirit of National Pickle Day, why not have your guests create their own personalized jars of homemade pickles? Not only is this fun activity perfect for any age group; it also allows everyone to take home their own unique creation at the end of the day. All you need are cucumbers (or other vegetables), salt water brine solution, herbs and spices or other flavors, canning equipment…and maybe an extra pair of hands if you plan on making enough for everyone at your party!

No matter how you choose to celebrate National Pickle Day this year, one thing’s for sure—it’ll be lots of fun! With these creative suggestions in hand, you’re all set to host an amazing celebration full of delicious eats and exciting activities that will go down in history as one memorable National Pickle Day indeed! So grab those cucumbers…it’s time to get picking!
