About this event

Learn how to create fermented recipes including Kombucha and Kefir.

Fermented foods and drinks are big news now, and for good reason. Enjoyed for centuries by people from many cultures, not only do fermented foods & drinks pack a punch taste-wise but those who eat them report many health benefits.

Roisin, founder of local fermented drink producer Wildling, has joined our team to share her knowledge with a hands-on fermenting workshop. In this 3-hour session she will teach you, step-by-step, how to make water kefir and sauerkraut. As well as demonstrating how to make kombucha.

Roisin will discuss the benefits of fermented foods & drinks and how to avoid the “fake alternatives” often sold in supermarkets. Also, enjoy lots of flavour inspiration, tasters, and ideas for how to use your fermented creations in smoothies, coleslaw and more. You will leave with a bottle of water kefir and a jar of sauerkraut, in your choice of flavours, alongside all the know-how you need to start making your own fermented creations at home.

“It was so simple, well explained, easy to do and follow. Good to work with and share ideas with others.” “Very friendly, good value. Totally enjoyable.”- Previous Participants
