Known to improve taste, increase nutrients, and support a strong immune system, fermentation has been used for centuries as a sustainable and delicious way to preserve the harvest and sustain good health. Terry will show us how to make a number of different ferments and we'll get to taste, too! Terry is the author of "Clean Food," "Clean Start," and "Eat Clean, Live Well." She is a James Beard Foundation Award finalist, recipient of the Nautilus Gold and Silver Book Awards, and recipient of the World Gourmand "Second Best Vegetarian Cookbook in the World" and "Best Vegetarian Cookbook in the United States" Awards.
