Your gut is home to trillions of living organisms - tiny helpers that influence your digestion, immunity, energy, and even your mood.
When you look after them, they look after you.

Fermentation is one of the simplest (and tastiest) ways to do just that.
It’s ancient science meets everyday magic - transforming humble ingredients into living foods that nourish from the inside out.

Join Chris Downham from R1SE on the 23 November 2025 for a 3 hour hands-on, feel-good workshop that celebrates gut health, community, and the joy of creating something alive.
