The Dill Behind Pickle Day

How did it all begin?

Pickle day is a literal slice of history. The Lower East Side streets used to be lined with pushcarts, peddling their goods and wares throughout this immigrant-rich neighborhood. Today these stories are told through our local Tenement Museum but history comes alive at the Lower East Side Partnership’s annual Pickle Day celebration! We recreate the original pushcart market that previously positioned the Lower East Side as ‘The Bargain District.’ Today’s market is full of contemporary, local restaurants paired alongside picklers – like The Pickle Guys – that put this neighborhood on the map, pickle-wise!
