Updated April 28, 2013

Below is a list of Real Food Fermentation book events, future and past. If you have questions about any of them, please post a comment below, and I'll reply to it.

I love meeting people, especially people who love food! So come find me at an event, and let's talk about fermentation or whatever else.

Books will be available for purchase at all of the in-person events, and I will be happy to sign your book. (Or if you mail me a book and a stamped, self-addressed envelope, I'll be happy to sign it and send it back to you.)

If you'd like to book me for an event, please email Events@RealFoodFermentation.com and let's figure it out!
