Seasonal Spring Fermentation with Sara Yael

Learn the ancient art of fermentation using the produce harvested on the day from the Farm! Transform fresh organic vegetables straight from Northey Street's gardens into delicious probiotic-rich ferments that that support your microbiome, reduce inflammation and increase vitality.

Join wild fementer Sara Yael for a hands-on journey into ancient fermentation arts. Craft wild pink kraut, seasonal lacto-pickles, and effervescent tonics that boost health, brighten skin, and elevate your meals! Take home THREE jars of your handcrafted ferments plus the practical skills to continue this transformative practice independently. You will leave the session armed with both tangible skills and a renewed relationship to food and community.

The workshop includes morning tea with ferment tastings and the confidence to turn any seasonal abundance into living foods that nourish your body and delight your taste buds. Space limited to ensure personalised guidance. Book early!


Youth Offer
This workshop is available for teens (12 to 18 years) who are accompanied by mum, dad or an adult guardian who has also paid for a ticket.


About the Facilitator
Sara Yael is a wild fermenter and multi-disciplinary artist whose passion for ancient preservation techniques was nurtured growing up in a permaculture village. This early immersion in sustainable living practices laid the foundation for her current work creating small-batch, oak barrel-aged ferments that blur the line between food and medicine. For Sara, food is the ultimate love language! As founder of Feast for the People, Sara has taught workshops nationwide at venues including The Fermentation Festival, The Plant Fair and The Paddock Project, sharing her expertise in transforming surplus produce into nutrient-dense, probiotic-rich foods. Since returning to Mullumbimby, her focus has deepened on building community resilience through food sovereignty and traditional skills. Sara's workshops are hands on, down to earth sensory experiences that are curated to engage all senses, and create meaningful connections that transcend the merely educational.
