The Ferment Farm
About Moonstone Ferments
Here’s a little about what we do at Moonstone Ferments:
- Cabbages in the field were bursting and needed to be picked and crocked.
- Everything is local home grown organic/sustainable/permacultured/biodynamic/synergistically as possible.
- We grow as much fermentables as we can to provide a “Field to Ferment” success.
- Our monthly full moon ferments are fully transformed by natural microbial activity into a food safe form where bad bacterium cannot invade.
- All without any potential estrogenic or ion disruptors from plastic or metal that may affect the working of natures plant enzymes.
- This has worked for tens of thousands of years and uses no power.
- Stone crocks, unleaded glass containers, and wood containers is what allow the magic of lactofermentation to occur as naturally as possible.
- Our collection of large quartz crystal points are used to hold down our veggies in the brine as they transform for a few months.
Learn all about fermented foods at www.ItsAllAboutTheGut.com. A new webpage The Ferment Farm getting built to separate our growing from our fermenting. The farm will feature pics and tricks from 35 years of experience in deep mulch gardening practices. And all just for growing fermentables in a field! “Synergistic” is a new name recently coined for this practice. I call it “like Mother Nature”. Bare soil is not natural. Covered soil grows better bugs/microbes that plants love.
Come to the Kelowna Farmers Market on Sat to try some!
