I'm doing a second, more informal event in Atlanta

I'm doing a second, more informal event in Atlanta Monday, Jan 13 at 6pm. It's a fundraiser for Casa La Banda, an LGBTQ refuge that friends of mine have opened in Mexico City. $20 suggested donation but no one turned away for lack of funds.

Next weekend in Atlanta, I'm participating in Pres

Next weekend in Atlanta, I'm participating in Preserving Abundance: A Food Waste and Fermentation Weekend. Just a few tickets left. Come, and help spread the word!

Tee-shirt in Oaxaca. "Pulque is not a fashion; it's a tradition." Pulque, the fermented sap of the maguey plant, is soooo delicious. #pulque #fermentoaxaca

I arrived yesterday in Abergavenny, Wales, the final stop of my UK fermentation tour, just in time to participate in the small but spirited Climate Strike protest here. My week has been full-on, with great events at @goodlifeexperience, @collegeofnaturopathicmedicine, @schoolofartisanfood, and today @afoodfestival. Coming to the UK every 2-3 years, I've been able to witness how dramatic the fermentation revival here is. And I believe that fermentation can be part of climate resistance. Our food system is a major contributor to the crisis, from monocropping, to toxic concentrated animal feeding operations and agrochemicals, to long-distance transportation of everyday foods. Local food, regenerative agriculture, eating less meat, and fermentation are all elements of a more sustainable future.

Next Sunday is the Berkshire Fermentation Festival

Next Sunday is the Berkshire Fermentation Festival in Great Barrington, MA. I was there last year and it's a great event. I can't be there this time, but I want to encourage interested folks to check it out. It's a great opportunity to learn more, taste delicious and innovative ferments, and meet other fermentation enthusiasts. And, it's free! Help spread the word.

Kitty Katz 2010-August 9, 2019 Kitty died Friday

Kitty Katz 2010-August 9, 2019

Kitty died Friday night after a brief illness. She wandered into our lives out of the forest as a malnourished abandoned puppy, and in the end, wandered back into that forest to die. As a puppy she was extremely social with people, other dogs, cats, and other creatures. She played exuberantly, could be frenetic, and wouldn’t take no for an answer. Kitty, also known as Princess Kitty, knew how to get the attention she wanted. As she got older, she mellowed. She still always loved to be around people and dogs, but generally in a more passive way. Kitty loved to go on walks and to have her belly rubbed. She hated going to the vet, and would always start shaking when she realized we were there. Kitty hated when I would go away. Leopard and others always took great care of her in my absence, but I travel a lot and that was hard on her. Kitty loved lounging on couches, and divided her time among as many couches as there were. Kitty was my first pet (aside from fish) and she taught me a lot. Honestly, until my relationship with her, the strong emotional attachment of people toward their pets was something I simply could not understand. But Kitty showed me the power of love, and loved me hard, and let me love her, and she was a wonderful companion to me.

Rest in Peace, Miss Kitty. Rest in Power. Thank you for sharing your life with me. You will be missed, by me and many other friends.
