Ecofest: Fermenting With Yotam And Niva Kay

Waitemata Waste Away are delighted to be bringing Yotam and Niva Kay to EcoFest – the best selling authors of The Abundant Garden and now they are sharing with us their new book, The Abundant Kitchen.

Niva and Yotam will share their wealth of knowledge and experience in making ferments, pickles, preserves, sourdough, koji, cured meat, ginger beer, yoghurt, vinegar and kombucha.

Using these recipes is the perfect way to preserve and transform an abundance of food, so it is eaten not wasted..

Whether you are a seasoned fermenter or taking your first steps into the world of live cultures, The Abundant Kitchen, with its helpful tips, step-by-step instructions and timeless techniques is an excellent guide.

We are holding our event at Wai Orea CRC, Waitemata’s new Recycling Centre – if you arrive early you can have a look around.

If you can’t make our event but want to buy the book here’s how to support Niva and Yotam and order the book directly from them.

Our sincere thanks to Yotam and Niva for taking time from their Pākaraka Permaculture farm in Thames to share their knowledge.

And to the Waitemata Local Board for supporting this event.
