BELVIDERE, NJ, July 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Edible Garden AG Incorporated ("Edible Garden" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:EDBL, EDBLW)), a leader in controlled environment agriculture (CEA), locally grown, organic, and sustainable produce and products, today announced that its celebrated Pickle Party™ line has started shipping to Uncle Giuseppe's Marketplace locations.

Designed to appeal to modern health-conscious consumers, the line delivers gut-friendly benefits while transforming everyday meals with crisp, tangy, and bold flavor.

"We are thrilled to have our Pickle Party™ line available at Uncle Giuseppe's, a retailer known for offering premium, chef-driven products," said Jim Kras, Chief Executive Officer of Edible Garden. "Pickle Party™ is more than just a new product—it is a fresh take on a classic category, delivering bold flavor and real health benefits in a clean-label format. It reflects our mission to provide consumers with better-for-you options that do not compromise on taste or quality. Uncle Giuseppe's is an ideal partner for this expansion—they understand the importance of innovation, authenticity, and customer experience. We are proud to bring Pickle Party™ to their shelves and introduce their customers to a truly differentiated line of fresh, fermented condiments that elevate the everyday meal."
