Join Boston Ferments for the 6th Annual Fermentation Festival on Sunday, August 26th, 2018, from 10am-4pm at the Boston Public Market! Like previous Fermentation Fests, this year will be a *free* tour de fermentation composed of dozens of speakers, demos, fermented drinks (read as alcoholic!), scientists and authors. Plus we will have a Makers Marketplace which represents our growing small business fermentation community where you can sample fermented foods & drink. One centerpiece of the fest will be our free communal crowd-sourced #KrautMob where everyone will be invited to make sauerkraut together under the guidance of local Kraut Mobsters (read as: fermentation experts).

Samuel Estes and his family’s nursery and home have been completely lost to the volcanic activity there. Not only did they lose there livelihood and possessions, but also very rare and endangered plants from around the world. Almost 30 years of business gone in only a few days.
