Fermentation Club
Announcing the new Somerville Fermentation Club!
About the Club
The Somerville Fermentation Club is an outgrowth of the annual Somerville Fermentation Festival, which has brought together a community of fermentation lovers and those who want to know more. The intention behind the club is to give us the chance to connect as a community on an ongoing basis throughout the year, to learn from each other, and to deepen our understanding of fermentation and help others do the same.
Club Meetings
The Somerville Fermentation Club meets from 6-8pm on the last Monday of each month at Aeronaut Brewing Co. (14 Tyler St, Somerville MA). Specific meetup dates are listed below:
Monday, November 30
Monday, December 28* (date TBC)
Monday, January 25
Monday, February 22
Monday, March 29
Bring your non-alcoholic* fermented creations to share - sauerkraut, pickles, hot sauce, kimchi, or any other fermented delights. This is an informal gathering where fermentation fans can swap samples, share techniques, troubleshoot batches, and build community around one of the oldest and most rewarding forms of food preservation.
*Please note that we have been asked not to bring any beverages that may potentially contain alcohol, including kombucha.
You can RSVP here to let us know you’re coming, or just show up to the meeting!
Future Events
As our club grows and develops, we intend to add other types of events such as communal fermentation activities, classes and workshops, and other opportunities to learn about fermentation as a group. If you have any questions or suggestions, or would like to join our club’s Google Group, please reach out to Flora at somfermfest@gmail.com.
Hope to see you soon!
