Fermented Food as Medicine

Christin has been fermenting food for 2 decades, and some of her ferments have been alive for almost as long! A student of the non-credo macrobiotic philosophy, Christin believes in learning through lived experience. After many years of studying the energy of food and natural health, she created her Eating with the Elements online course about the energetics of food and the changing seasons. She also teaches classes and workshops on crystals and nine star ki astrology. Get to know her on instagram @thatritzylife

If you are attending Herbfest, you probably already see the medicinal plants around you as part of your more-than-human community. But what about the life you can't see? Fermented food is teeming with life! And yes, they actually live in communities! Learn about fermentation, why it happens, and how you can incorporate this incredible part of nature into your own eating habits for better health!
