Re: Source for: Permaculture Book of Ferment and Human Nutrition

[Guest guest]

Thank for this info., Robin. I live just east of Hershey, PA, so Kutztown is

probably only about an hour from here. I'll make plans to visit that

place---it sounds interesting. Do you think this time of year is as good as

any other time to go there?

Thanks,

Dawn

This book sounds interesting. Can you tell more about it. I suppose someone

referred to it in this group, but I can't find the comments, except for

Becky's brief comment on 9/17.

There were a few people who were talking about it. I don't remember the

exact posts, but maybe someone else does. I'm not that knowledgeable, but

as a librarian, I'm pretty good at finding things. Since there was a

waiting list, I thought I would post the source in case some of them are on

this list.

I haven't finished reading it. I only just got it this weekend. It seems

to be a collection or survey of fermentation techniques with recipes from

all over the world. It also talks about nutrition and how it's affected by

fermentation. It's related to permaculture in that you have to cook and

prepare what you grow, and it talks about how foods were brought to new

areas, but the related microorganisms were left behind. I hope that's

helpful.

It's nicer when the weather is warm. If the cold doesn't bother you, you

can still walk around the farm. I was just there last week, and the

flea/farmer's market and the other stores were still open. A lot of things

are closed on Sunday, though. The caves are nice there, too, but we

haven't been there recently. We had a good time, but it certainly would

have been better if it had been 10 or 20 degrees warmer.
