Description
Curious about how to get started with making your own fermented foods and beverages? In this workshop, you’ll learn about the mind-gut connection and why we are co-evolved to consume fermented foods regularly. You’ll enjoy a full charcuterie board and fermented beverages (shrubs) while learning how to start your own cultures to create delicious wild and cultured ferments. You will experience hands-on sauerkraut making, and take a mason jar home to continue to develop. You’ll also bring home a starter mother and all you need to know to start your own cycle of delicious ferments. Our vinegar mothers are over 20 years old, and have been growing continuously in organic wine for the duration of that time. They produce a rich, deeply fragrant and flavorful vinegar, and will continue to do so for decades with the right care.

Vinegar – aerobically fermented wine, beer or fruit juice
