About this Event

This workshop takes place in the lovely St Peters Community Hall and Garden, in Fairwater, Cardiff.

Discover the art of fermentation with Laure Boutrais, naturopath and founder of the award-winning South Wales–based Water Kefir and Sauerkraut company, Absorb Health.

Together, we’ll explore the connection between our inner health and the natural processes that sustain it.

You’ll make your own sauerkraut to take home, learn the craft of water kefir making, and enjoy a variety of tastings inspired by traditions from around the globe.

Laure will share health and well-being tips for the seasonal change from late Summer to Autumn, the importance of looking after your gut; particularly for maintaining good mental health and digestion, as well as insights into the role of fermented foods in nurturing the gut microbiome.

What’s included:

  • Guided tasting of fermented foods and drinks made by Laure, inspired by recipes from around the world
  • Understanding the benefits of fermentation and its impact on gut health
  • Hands-on sauerkraut making, plus the difference between sauerkraut and other lacto-fermented vegetables
