Not sure why this place only has one review, it's been open for four months now. Maybe because it's in the "farmer's market' category on Yelp? Perhaps "Health Markets, Bakery?, Grocery" could help as additional categories for Yelpers to find them.
Stopped by as we were passing through Grass Valley specifically because the storefront caught our eye and we are quick to be curious about anyone who is moving forward in the much needed fermented food niche.
They create krauts made with different combinations of ingredients for delectable flavoring, from juniper to hops to apple! In addition are specialty products like probiotic olives and dilly beans. Ingredients are organic and locally-sourced. Sample one or all in order to choose your favorites.
They also offer specialty ketchup, mustard, kombucha, and locally made ancient grains bread.
The store is pristine, they sell ferment equipment including fermentation crocks (including one that is locally made!), hermetic glass bottles, how-to books, and other supplies. A great place to pick up what you need or gift to friends.
The owners, Chris and Cristina are very friendly and welcoming. They're open to feedback and interested in widening their community of ferment aficionados. Their product is found in local stores and they have a strong interest in supporting their local community and gut health while providing education about the benefits of fermented foods. read more
