Fermentation opens a fascinating world of explosive tastes, smells and colours. A world where micro-life and health are beautifully intertwined. It’s easy to step in. However, also easy to postpone. Therefore, I am here to share my experience and guide you in stepping inside the endless and sophisticated landscape of fermentation.
There is much to say and learn about participating in the unavoidable processes of falling-apart and decay. Creating healthy and life-enhancing foods from decay, is something that people everywhere in the world had done for millennia. Fermentation is at a basic level, a transformational process. By which microorganisms enhance the vitality, potency and lifespan of our food.
But applying fermentation is so much more - it’s culture-making.
There are parallels between fermentation and the process of ageing, breaking things down, touching the essential and gaining maturity.
As a slow transformative force, fermentation reflects the capacity of letting go, the old becoming new life, the rhythms and circularity of human life. It marks the edges where humans and more-than-human meet. And inspires community and interdependence.
WHAT WE WILL DO:
In this workshop I will introduce you to the world of fermentation and the potential health benefits you can get from eating delicious and nutritious lacto-fermented vegetables. This is a practical workshop so everyone will be making some ferments to take home. We will be using organic vegetables most of them from local farmers.
This workshop is for open to all levels.
- Please bring a chopping board, knife, bowl and 2 jars with a lid (max 1L each).
- Tea, some fermented vegetables and vegetables for fermenting will be provided.
FERMENTATION VIBES: at the energetic and movement levels, fermentation asks us to slow down, engage with the cyclic forces and the tides of life force. Most of all it reminds us that falling apart is part of the process of renewal. Therefore, in this workshop we will practice still standing, body awareness and slow movement. Most of all, we intentionally use our hands in dialogue with the heart. Because all this is made with love, will flourish!
