Join us for the 4th annual Fermentation Fest to explore cider, wine, pickles, kraut, salami, beer, cheese, spirits, kombucha, kefir, sourdough, mead, hot sauce, kimchi, koji, chocolate, coffee and more.

Experience an unlimited salon-style tasting of over 200 organically-farmed wines, farmhouse beers, and other beverages and foods fermented with wild yeast and bacteria. Learn from panel and classroom-style discussions in which producers, importers, writers, and retailers share knowledge within and across categories toward a greater understanding of an ever more delightfully-complex continuum of fermentory enjoyment.

This event creates a space for all of WNC and surrounding communities to join together in honor of fermentation, food preservation, farming and food resiliency in Madison County, NC.  All profits & proceeds from the festival will be donated to the Beacon of Hope Food Bank of Marshall, NC.
