The fabulous folks at Farmhouse Culture will lead you into the secret, scintillating world of sauerkraut, chutneys and pickles. They will teach you the history
science and health benefits of lacto-fermented goodies. Then, you'll get to try your hand at making some of them. By the end of the night, you'll have a jar or ...two full to place in the warm hands of your Thanksgiving friends.
Farmhouse Culture was founded by Kathryn Lukas, the former chef-owner of a popular restaurant in Stuttgart, Germany. Lukas, now based in Santa Cruz, has developed quite a following for her amazing, local, organic krauts through the Taylor Mountain CSA local farmers' markets, Slow Food Nation and Whole Foods Markets.
