3 hours Class size 1 to 3 guests     $229


Learn how to make your own fermented vegetables and naturally cultured pickles at this fun and practical evening workshop in Sydney. You will even get to take home two wild ferments!

This class is perfect for beginners, as you join author and wholefood educator, Marcea Klein, who will take you through everything there is to know about fermentation and pickling seasonal organic vegetables.

The class will begin with the history of wild fermentation and naturally cultured pickled vegetables, before discussing what fruits and vegetables work best in these processes and why they are so great for your health. You will also learn how to easily incorporate these foods into your diet and food safety processes like sterilising containers. There will then be a live demonstration on how to pickle with miso, plus tastings of earlier prepared ones and a sample of the nourishing drink, Kvass.
