Fermentation on Wheels
Fermentation on Wheels (FOW) is a community effort to provide free food education and inspiration to people through literature & visual arts projects that raise food awareness and teach fermentation. The community organizes potlucks and teaches fermentation in a school bus that has been converted into a creative kitchen and workshop space. FOW’s workshops are free and open to the public, with the intention of reaching as many individuals as possible. By traveling the country, visiting farmers, and connecting with people through arts, FOW makes powerful statements about food-to-consumer cultures and encourages the importance of strong, sustainable food practices and values. The community currently prioritizes a educational opportunities for K-12 students in under served populations. BWB’s grant will provide the funds to produce “Get Cultured! Kids”workshops and cover the creation and printing of food awareness and fermentation literature, including the publication of the Fermentation on Wheels zine
