They will also taste the unique flavors of fermentation that Tara works with in the shop. Each student will return home with their own fermentation project to tend to and ultimately consume. You will be fully equipped to tackle any vegetable fermentation project after this class. This is part of our monthly fermentation class series which will take place the last Thursday of each month during March through October of 2022). Classes are limited to 6 students and will be at the Drifter Ferments shop. We aim to keep classes small, so students can receive individualized attention for all their fermentation needs.
