Join us for a primer in lacto-fermented foods led by Jenna Empey from Pyramid Ferments.
Fermentation preserves food in a natural way without the use of vinegar, sugar, pasteurization or artificial preservatives. The process of fermentation creates a live and cultured super food, rich in nutrients, probiotics and enzymes.
In this demo with Jenna Empey from Pyramid Ferments, you will learn about various types of food and beverage fermentation, their health benefits, and our local ferment community.
