Time to pucker up; this year’s Lower East Side Pickle Day is quickly approaching. Brine time. The event will feature over twenty picklers alongside other local food and fashion vendors. It’ll also most likely run in tandem with the semi-frequent DayLife series, as it did last year.
This year’s outing will be the second iteration of pickles invading Orchard Street between East Houston and Delancey Streets, since Hurricane Sandy went all fun police on the event, forcing cancelation back in 2012.
The date has been set for Sunday, October 19. Below is the list of participants, which is apparently still a work in progress.
