Unlock the secrets of fermentation in this hands-on workshop. Learn to create probiotic-rich foods that support gut health and preserve seasonal abundance.
About This Experience
Fermentation is both an art and a science, and this workshop covers both aspects beautifully. You'll learn the fundamentals of lacto-fermentation, wild fermentation, and controlled fermentation processes. Each session focuses on 2-3 different fermentation projects—you might make kimchi, sauerkraut, kombucha, water kefir, or sourdough starter depending on the season. We'll discuss the health benefits of fermented foods, troubleshooting common issues, and creative flavor combinations. You'll leave with your own fermentation projects to continue at home, plus comprehensive guides and recipes.
