Sacred Fermentation

food sovereignty ~ mutual aid ~ kitchen witchery

Sacred Fermentation is an effort to share the magic & medicine of healthy, fermented vegetables.

How it works:

~ A small group pays for ingredients & makes a big batch of fermented vegetables.
~ 10 days later, the same small group jars the veggies from the crock & takes home their share.
~ Half the batch will be distributed to those in need.

Repeat. Repeat. REPEAT.

Meaning – this is an ongoing effort & there will be ongoing opportunities. If you’re on the email list, you’ll be able to sign up for a round of fermentation.

And if you’re wondering, Why fermentation?

That’s a great question.

Fermented vegetables are very healthy. And when properly stored, they have a much longer shelf life than fresh produce.

Proper storage = tightly packed in a well-sealed container (see photo).

Fermented veggies are an excellent way to have ready-to-eat servings of vegetables, that can be eaten alone or as an ingredient in other dishes, without the need to chop or cook.

If you –

~ want to make delicious & healthy fermented vegetables

~ understand that preparing food is powerful ritual magic

~ want to support those in need, without needing a direct, personal connection to the recipients

Please note - this is not a revenue-generating operation for me. I’ll get a share of the ferment, since I’ll be preparing it with the group. But costs are based on what’s needed for ingredients, supplies, and distribution.

Additionally, this will take some time to organize. Please be patient with me.
