About us

We're a group of people fascinated by fermentation in all its forms. Whether you're a seasoned fermenter with jars of kombucha and kimchi going at any given time, or you're just curious about what fermentation actually is, you belong here. We get together to share what we're working on, swap recipes and techniques, troubleshoot problems, and generally geek out about the science and culture behind fermented foods and drinks.

The beauty of fermentation is that it's accessible to everyone. You don't need fancy equipment or years of experience to start. We like to keep things casual and judgment-free, so feel free to bring your questions, your experiments that didn't turn out quite right, or your success stories. Some of us are into the health benefits, some of us just love the flavors, and some of us are interested in the history and traditions behind different fermented foods from around the world.

We usually meet to taste things together, do hands-on workshops, or just chat over snacks. If you're interested in learning something new, connecting with other people who find this stuff interesting, or showing off what you've been fermenting, we'd love to have you join us.
