Learning
Join us on the first Friday of the month for “Fermentation Fridays” taught by Chef Dani Chavez-Bello.
More and more science is being exposed on the link between gut health and brain health. The gut is often called a "second brain" because it produces many of the same neurotransmitters as the brain does, including serotonin, dopamine, and gamma-aminobutyric acid, all of which play a key role in regulating mood and are a part of a thriving microbiome.
One of the best ways to promote a healthy microbiome is to regularly add fermented foods into your diet. Fermentation is also easy and safe to do at home with simple direction—this series will help get you set up with the basics of fermentation and the skills to build it into your weekly routine.
