Plan to attend the second annual
FREESTONE FERMENTATION FESTIVAL

Thanks to everyone who contributed to making our May 2009 Festival such a huge success!

Over 800 people attended, 21 exhibitors offered generous samples of fermented food and drink of all kinds, 3 keynoters and 4 cooking classes packed the theater, the kids program was a big hit, and 3 food booths and 8 hours of live music kept people well-fed and entertained.

The enthusiasm and community involvement was tremendous, and proved the high level of interest in everything fermented!
