We're Kyle and Meredith, welcome to Ferment Culture! Here’s a little bit about us:

At Ferment Culture, we believe true health begins with the right ingredients—and that starts with the culture of our food. We carefully source local, organic ingredients from regenerative farms to craft fermented foods that nourish your gut, body, and community. By using ingredients from healthy, nutrient-rich soils, we promote the growth of beneficial bacteria and compounds like probiotics, digestive enzymes, and organic acids. This not only enhances gut health but also creates vibrant, flavorful foods. Our commitment to local sourcing supports sustainable agriculture, regenerates soil health, and strengthens our local food systems—bringing you fresher, more nutrient-dense products that benefit you and the planet. 

We started tinkering with fermentation about 6 years ago. It all started with trying to make kombucha at home. We quickly fell in love with the creative possibilities and science behind the process. As we continued this journey, we learned how important it was for each ingredient to have a story. Going to the farmer’s markets to scope out the highest-quality and freshest organic foods from local farms. It was important to know that the produce was grown, cared for, and harvested by people we could actually talk to. That became a vital piece of the puzzle.

The best part of the process was sharing our creations with friends and family and knowing that it was not only tasty, interesting, and fun to eat, but also healthy. We’ve realized it’s essential for us to take care of our health and the health of those around us. This realization, along with the support of many, has led us to create Ferment Culture.

Our goal is to use only thoughtful, organic, local, and high-quality ingredients to craft fermented foods that are truly healthy for you, your gut, and our community.
