Natural Probiotic Soda / Water Kefir Workshop, Thursday, May 31st, 7-9 pm $25 at my home

May 31, 2012 from 7pm to 9pm
Join us to learn how to make your own refreshing, bubbly soda containing over forty strains of probiotics (over 6 times more than yogurt) using water kefir.  Water kefir is a traditional probiotic culture, grown and cared for by many generations who used it to ferment sweet liquid into a healthy, hydrating drink – the precursor to modern day soda.  In the class we will taste different recipes including ginger ale, bottle a fermented batch, and you will start a batch of water kefir to take home…See More

"The benefit of having 6 movies chosen in advance would reduce the work of arranging venues, especially if copies of the movies could be obtained in advance and distributed.  I have also really enjoyed having a theme at the Friends movies which…"

March 8, 2011 from 6pm to 7pm
This time of year I am in the process of fermenting the abundance that my garden is supplying. For this class I will have some ferments ready to taste and fresh veggies for us to prepare them so you can experience the full circle of making them. We will taste and make lacto-fermented ketchup, beet kvass, ginger carrots, kimchi, and sauerkraut. Traditional cultures ate fermented food with practically every meal. They are loaded with healthy, immune supportive probiotics. Fermenting is also a way…See More

Thanks, Rebecca, for introducing me to Code Green Community> I'm placing World cafe notice.

Peace,

David S.

P.S. I, too, was a school teacher, and left system over their bureaucratic and, basically, abusive administrative manners. Long live the right pedagogy!

Rebecca,

Great class. I'm looking forward to exploring other means of fermentation... and of course, perfecting several different flavors of water kefir. Dakota likes the orange juice kefir and I like the ginger tea kefir the best. Also, good contact you sent me... I've already written the Weston A Price Chapter in Spring Hill. I've read the national web site before but never went beyond that. They must have had a speaker at Green World Path which is what led me to research them further. I'll keep you posted and let us know about your upcoming classes.

Hi Rebecca! It was nice to chat with you (again) at the Green Dean foraging event. Where do you have a list of your classes? I'd love to learn about some of the things you know. Have a great day. Stacey
