SUMMARY:Fermi-culture: The Art and Science of Vegetable Fermentation
DESCRIPTION:Discover how fermentation can nourish both your kitchen and your garden in this engaging\, hands‑on workshop led by permaculture instructor Elmo Ranelli. Through a blend of lecture\, demonstration\, and guided practice\, participants will explore the history\, science\, and practical applications of vegetable fermentation — and how these time‑honored techniques align with core permaculture principles. Learn what fermentation is\, how it works\, and why it has been used for centuries to preserve food and enhance nutrition. Then roll up your sleeves to create a simple fermented condiment and two fermented plant extractions that can be used as nutrient‑rich fertilizer for home gardens. Attendees will take home both edible and garden‑ready ferments to continue experimenting with at home. \n►Learn more about the Permaculture Design Certificate Course
