We create premium conserves, chutneys, curds, and condiments that capture the flavour of the seasons and the comfort of something homemade.
We believe there is something special about a homely preserve that is familiar and full of the season’s flavour. Our jars bring comfort and character to the table, ready to be enjoyed and shared.
What began in our Howden kitchen garden, in the heart of Yorkshire, has grown into a family tradition of preserving the seasons. Discover the story behind Nichols Pickles and Preserves.
You’ll often find us at food festivals, farmers’ markets, and country fairs across Yorkshire. Come and say hello, taste what’s new, and take home a jar (or two).

Our Yorkshire kitchen is always guided by what’s in season. This winter, why not enjoy jars like Cranberry Sauce, Bramley Apple Sauce, Spiced Plum Conserve, and Caramelised Red Onion Chutney — preserves made for sharing around the table.
Our online shop is filled with conserves, chutneys, pickles and relishes for every occasion. Whether you prefer sweet, spiced, tangy, or savoury flavours, explore the full collection and find your favourites, ready to be enjoyed or shared.
From family meals to festive feasts, our preserves have found their way into many kitchens. Here are just a few of the kind words our customers have shared with us.
