Fierce Ferments

ANNOUNCEMENT:
As you can probably tell by the complete lack of activity on this page, our founders Galen, Nick, and Mike have been mostly putting their energies elsewhere lately. Fortunately, the company just got an infusion of fresh blood, as Greg Nordling will be taking ownership of our operations effective immediately! I (Galen) thank you for your support over these past 8 years, and ask that you please join me in welcoming Greg as we hand the ball over to him! Happy fermenting!

As always, keep the kraut pressed down into its juices for best quality! Oh, and that 3-digit number next to the date? That's the batch number, not the price. ;)
