Fermentation is having a moment, but it’s also one of the oldest ways people across cultures have preserved food and built flavor.
Beyond taste, fermentation introduces beneficial bacteria that support digestion and a healthy gut microbiome.
That’s the spirit behind Fermentopia, Southern Oregon’s celebration of fermented foods and beverages, from sourdough, cheese and chocolate to kimchi, miso, cider, wine and kombucha.
