Wild Vegetable Fermentation & Starter Culture Swap

Tara Whitsitt of Fermentation on Wheels will hold a vegetable fermentation workshop at Borner Farm Project. She will teach the simple tradition of preserving vegetables through bacterial collaboration using local, seasonal ingredients. Tara will also share the benefits of fermentation and how you can creatively & fearlessly ferment in your own kitchen. This workshop targets novice through intermediate students, offering a thorough overview of the art of fermented vegetables.

After the workshop, Tara will share the bus with students. Attendees may also bring starter cultures of their own for exchange & discussion as well as bring an empty jar and take a culture home from the workshop.

If you would like to take a starter culture home with you, please bring something to trade or $10 (per starter culture). There is a suggested $10 donation for this workshop, but donating less or more is completely up to you. All donations support the continuation of Fermentation on Wheels Midwest tour.
