This evening is all about fermentation. “Fermentation is the process in which a substance breaks down into a simpler substance. Microorganisms like yeast and bacteria usually play a role in the fermentation process, creating beer, wine, bread, kimchi, yogurt and other foods.

Fermentation comes from the Latin word fermentare, meaning “to leaven.”

Our three producers & one nutritional therapist are:

– Rod Calder Potts (the other half of our host Julie) on the journey of apples into vinegar
– Hayley Milthorpe, The Cultured Food Co.
– Eleanor Duggan (The Little Green Grocer)

We kick off at 18.30 and finish 2 hours later…..there will be tastings :-).

The evening will explore the reasons why food producers use fermentation, their stories and passions and will also look at the positive impacts of those foods on our health.
