Shout out to our friends at @rvfoodsystem ☀️
I’ve just picked up a copy of this year’s edition of the most comprehensive guide to all things food and bev in the greater Rogue Valley. They nailed it once again, and I was surprised and humbled to find a whole page dedicated to our festival! What a fantastic recognition of all the FERMENTOPIA taste makers, and the products they create with so much love and passion: from sourdough, kraut, kimchi and miso to cheese, chocolate, wine, hot sauces, beer, kombucha, kefir and beer! FERMENTOPIA is a celebration of your amazing work. Thank you 🙏 #fermentopia #ferments #southernoregon @wildthymeproductions by @thefermentopia

Another great kraut maker calls Southern Oregon their home. Discover @wyldekraut11 and their wide selection of ferments! Bold, flavorful and unique combinations of traditional cabbage paired with other vegetables including beets, carrots, ginger, peppers, parsnips, and many herbs. Creative, delicious and nutritious! Our current favorite is the Spicy Dill Sauerkraut. by @thefermentopia

Tomorrow, February 1, is the World Ferment Day, but for us here @thefermentopia the love affair with fermented foods and drinks is a year round thing.
Here is our challenge for you! Starting tomorrow make sure you incorporate ferments into at least one meal each day! Extra points if you learn how to make your own ferments!!

Meet her majesty - Cindy Yi - the Queen of radish kimchi. @cindyyikimchi
This Korean staple ferment bursts with flavor and is a perfect addition to your next fish tacos, eggs (any style), grilled chicken, or a bowl of plain rice (trust me!)…..
Or straight out of the jar at midnight. No judgment.

What a way to kick things off!
Day One of FERMENTOPIA FESTIVAL was an absolute triumph—buzzing energy, curious crowds, and tables overflowing with flavor. The real stars? Our incredible makers and their wildly delicious creations. From crunchy, complex krauts and zesty fire cider to umami-packed fermented garlic paste and perfectly seasoned fermented nuts—every bite told a story. Add to that tangy sourdough loaves, beautiful cheeses, elegant wines, crisp cider, soulful miso, bold hot sauces, and so much more, and it was clear: fermentation is alive and thriving.

Thank you to the artisans who shared their craft, passion, and patience with us—you turned microbes into magic and made Day One unforgettable. Here’s to celebrating the makers who keep our food culture vibrant, flavorful, and deeply nourishing.
See you all tomorrow, Sunday, January 25, 11AM to 5PM. taken in Phoenix, Oregon by @thefermentopia

Maker Spotlight: Terrene Wine and Cider
Some dreams are planted one tree at a time. Just ask Anders and Akina Johnson, the husband-and-wife duo behind @terrene.cider.wine in Ashland.
Terrene is an independent winery and cidery known for its small-batch sparkling wines, fine ciders, and co-ferments inspired by European and ancestral methods. But here’s what makes them truly special: Anders and Akina farm their own cider apple orchard with over 60 varieties of apples - each one carefully chosen, planted, and nurtured by hand.
Rooted in conscientious and sustainable winemaking, Terrene focuses on showcasing the distinct characteristics of each varietal. That means cold-fermented ciders using minimal intervention to preserve the delicate esters and complex profiles in the fruit, and wines sourced from sustainably farmed vineyards in the southern Oregon bio-region.
Whether you’re sipping sparkling wine or exploring their creative ciders, Terrene offers something you won’t find anywhere else in Ashland — a chance to taste the labor of love that comes from planting hundreds of trees, tending them season after season, and transforming that fruit into something extraordinary.
Meet Akina and Anders and taste their ciders and wines this weekend inside Moxie Tap House and anytime after at their hip tasting room in Ashland. #wine #cider by @thefermentopia
