Everything that grows from the ground is kosher. Concerning the pickles only,
there's nothing in a pickle that makes it non-kosher, as long as it doesn't come

Kosher pickles should be kosher. To confirm this, you would need to check the labeling
for a recognized hechsher (kosher certification symbol). The US, and most other countries
with food labeling laws, doesn't allow any reference to being kosher unless the product
is certified kosher. Pickles that are labeled "kosher style", are most likely not kosher.
Items that could render pickles not kosher are primarily non-kosher spices and non-
kosher vinegar.
not all pickles are, you have to check the label or buy at a kosher grocery store.

"Kosher pickles" are something of a unique case. This particular item is called "kosher" strictly because of its close association with a style, a genre, a culture, an ethnicity, a region in cooking, and not because of any technical involvement with the Jewish dietary laws. They could just as well be labeled "Eastern European Pickles", but that would require bigger labels on the jars.
The major types are dill, sweet, and bread and butter. Other classifications include kosher and gherkin.
