Vegetables
Learn moreCrunchy, sour, salty, sweet, and a little bit nutty; our vegetable ferments are good for you, good for your gut, but most of all good for your mouth! Wild, raw and fermented; we've been known to grab a jar, a fork and a quiet space to eat the whole thing at once.
To Ferment....
Perhaps you ferment at home, and we hope you do; if only so you can experience a little bit of magic in your kitchen.
You can be sure that when you buy our ferments, what you are eating or drinking is part of an important food movement; a return to traditions - to living foods and small batch real food and drinks. We are wild fermenters in a largely homogenised world. We don't water down, force carbonate or add starter cultures. Our choices have never been for convenience; we are slow fermenters and our most expensive ingredient is time. By supporting us you are encouraging and supporting an artisan business that puts our customers, our earth, flavours, and the drive toward a better food system first.

Seeds, Oils & Sauces
Learn moreWe really (really) believe in sustainability and waste reduction at The Fermentary. One of our favourite ongoing discoveries is what to make with our spent produce (the stuff that doesn't end up in one of our usual jars). We used to keep these little mouthfuls of flavour-bombs just for ourselves, but they taste so good we've had to start sharing...

Legumes, Grains & Pulses
Learn moreScientific studies show that fermented legumes, grains and pulses have huge health benefits - far greater than eating them without fermenting them first. We like that they're healthy but we really like them because, a bit like a good, blue cheese, we are obsessed with the punchy, gut-loving flavours.

Live Cultures
Learn moreMagical SCOBYs... they can't be made by humans, they can't be recreated in an anonymous lab. They can only be passed on, from fermenter to fermenter. If treated well, they will keep producing delicious, gut-loving drinks forever.

Dry Store

Equipment & Kits
Learn moreYou can buy all of our produce (and we hope you do!), but our real mission is to change the way people think about ferments. We teach workshops and run events designed to get as many people fermenting as possible. It's so much more than very tasty food.
