About Us and Our Ethos
The bottle re-use scheme and our organic certification
Founded by Katie and Francis
.....
Katie is a Nutritional Therapist who believes fermented foods & drinks and organic vegetables are paramount to good health. Francis loves fermenting and eating healthy organic food! Together we are constantly making, fermenting and experimenting.
We make everything by hand, in small batches and we are passionate about good food and nutrition and we want others to benefit from these delicious and nutritious drinks too.
Our core principles:
Fermented - to create gut beneficial, low sugar, nutritious drinks
Medicinal - using herbs and spices to create healing tonics
Organic - good for us and good for the earth
Re-using bottles - making an effort to reduce single use packaging
