Join Olya Patiuta of Zhiva Authentica for an immersive hands-on fermentation and pickling workshop, where you will delve into the rich food culture of Ukraine, a land where fermentation and pickling are integral to the culinary tradition.
Olya, with her deep-rooted passion for these ancient practices, emphasizes that fermentation is about more than just preserving food—it’s about fostering community and enhancing immunity.
This workshop at Symondsbury offers a perfect blend of informative and practical sessions, highlighting how to make the most of fresh produce while minimizing waste.

Working in groups, everyone will get hands-on experience crafting their own jar of spicy kimchi, sauerkraut, or fermented veggies to take home, from chopping ingredients to mixing flavours.
