Full Earth Ferments!
The only thing better than fresh vegetables are fermented ones! We are excited to be adding seasonal ferments to our product list. We use our own farm grown produce and a process known as lacto-fermentation to create these delicious probiotic foods. Through the fermentation process good bacteria thrive where dangerous bacteria cannot survive. This is due to the salty and low pH environment created during fermentation. Lacto-fermentation is one of the oldest methods of preservation and happens to pack a probiotic punch that is nothing but good for us.

Seasonality
As we are using only locally grown ingredients, these products are seasonal. This means they won't be available all year, most likely. We are increasing our production and working on extending the allowed shelf-life for these products, but it will take time. Thank you for eating seasonally!

Kimchi is a spicy fermented vegetable medley that hails from Korea. Traditional Korean kimchi refers to over 200 different recipes and is eaten by many every day! It is a staple in Korean diets and was created in the 7th century. Learn more about the history of kimchi here. It is delicious on its own, but also makes a great addition to rice or noodle dishes, and tacos and sandwiches too. It is sure to enhance any meal. Our take on Korean kimchi is made from a variety of veggies from our farm and ginger from Turkey Hill Farm. Our recipe is comprised of Florida grown veggies (thus "Florida Style") and is vegan.
