If you can brew a cup of tea, you can brew Kombucha! As bacteriosapiens, we are bacteria powered which means the more bacteria rich fermented foods that we incorporate into our diet, the better we feel. Learn how easy it is to enjoy the benefits of brewing Kombucha at home for a fraction of the cost while nourishing your human microbiome in this lively presentation from the world’s foremost Kombucha expert, the Kombucha Mamma. You will enjoy Hannah’s Homebrew Kombucha to sip on during the workshop, SCOBY fruit leather to munch and a chance to try SCOBY skin cream.
