DIY Kimchi
Kimchi is a traditional fermented Korean staple side dish made from a combination of salted vegetables.
​
Kimchi is a nutrient powerhouse! It is absolutely full of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, prebiotics, probiotics, digestive enzymes, fiber and more.
​
Kimchi is delicious, nutrient dense, and is widely recognized to have powerful detoxifying properties and is especially great for digestive function and liver health.

Each student gets a 1L mason jar filled with fresh homemade kimchi to take home and ferment. People can personalize their own batch to be mild or spicy.
Why Choose
Fermented Foods?
​
-
Did you know that the microbes (yeasts, bacteria, fungi) living on and in your body outnumber the actual cells that make up your body 10 to 1?
-
Humans have a symbiotic relationship with our microbes and we each have our own personal population of microbes called the microbiome.
-
Supporting the ‘good’ microbes and maintaining a healthy microbiome is essential to good health and consuming fermented foods is one great way to support them!
