Harvest Markets on the Way! Plus: Sandor Katz at Portland Farmers Market

November 18, 2021

November 18, 2021
Join us at the farmers market this season to bring the freshest produce to your table, provide year-round stability to local farmers and producers, and be inspired by the bounty of our region.

Chef in the Market: Sandor Katz

Please join us at PSU Farmers Market on Saturday, December 4th for a special event in celebration of Sandor Katz’s new book Fermentation Journeys.
This funky and free community gathering—hosted by Liz Crain—will include a demonstration of pào cài (Chinese-style fermented vegetables), Q&A and book signing. We’ll have Fermentation Journeys available for purchase at our Market Information Booth at a sliding-scale price, $15-$35.

About Sandor Katz:
Sandor Ellix Katz is a fermentation revivalist. His books Wild Fermentation and the Art of Fermentation, along with the hundreds of fermentation workshops he has taught around the world, have helped to catalyze a broad revival of the fermentation arts in the United States. For the past two decades, he has traveled the world learning about the many fascinating and delicious techniques for fermenting foods. A self-taught experimentalist who lives in rural Tennessee, the New York Times calls him “one of the unlikely rock stars of the American food scene.” Sandor is the recipient of a James Beard award and other honors. For more information, check out his website:
www.wildfermentation.com.

A little about Fermentation Journeys:
Sandor Katz’s Fermentation Journeys reminds us that the magical power of fermentation belongs to everyone, everywhere. Perfect for adventurous foodies, armchair travelers, and fermentation fanatics who have followed Katz’s work through the years this book reflects the enduring passion and accumulated wisdom of this unique man, who is arguably the world’s most experienced and respected advocate of all things fermented.

Talking About Food Justice

Staff at PFM and Farmers Market Fund have teamed up for a monthly discussion club to learn about anti-racism, historic disparities in food and farming, and the current food justice movement. This is part of moving our equity and food justice work forward. It’s opened our thinking about policies and practices.
Last month, we read and took time to personally reflect and journal on the following article:
