Fermentation 101
Create Your Own Probiotic-Rich Foods
Many studies are cropping up these days
linking “gut” health with overall health and
well-being. You can spend a lot of money
on probiotic supplements, but the natural
way to promote healthy gut flora is eating
naturally lacto-fermented foods. In this
hands-on class, learn more about the gut-
health connection, simple wild fermentation
science, techniques, equipment and food
safety. Then learn how to prepare, hands-on,
your own wild, living batch of fermented
cabbage and other vegetables. Sample
other fermented foods, and receive recipes
and resources via emailed handouts after
class. No cooking skills required.
Cynthia
Farris
is a board certified Holistic Health
Coach and certified fermentationist. Bring a
whole green cabbage, a cutting board and a
favorite chef knife, if you have one.
