Your Local Growers and Fermenters

Small-batch, Raw, Unpasteurized, Probiotic-Rich

Vegetables are harvested in the morning and fermented in the afternoon guaranteeing you the freshest product available

Fermented food is full of vitamins, beneficial bacteria, and enzymes that are important in digestion and for a healthy immune system.

At Seed to Culture our fresh ferments are made with the very ingredients that we pull from the earth.

Fresh Daily...

Reducing the time between harvesting and fermenting ensures that the vegetables are at their maximum juiciness, and nutrient level.

Fermented Food...

Preserves food
“bio-preservatives” such as alcohol, lactic acid and acetic acid, which are produced through the fermentation process retain nutrients and prevent spoilage. Captain Cook took barrels of kraut on his ships and not a single person developed scurvy!

Breaks food down into a more easily digestible form Soybeans and milk are two examples of hard to digest foods. Soybean is a complex protein and fermentation breaks down the proteins into digestible amino acids. Miso, tempeh and soy sauce are examples of fermented soybean products. Lactobacilli, which are in fermented dairy products, transform lactose to lactic acid.

Creates new nutrients
The microbial cultures create B vitamins, including folic acid, thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), and biotin. Lactobacilli create omega-3 fatty acids which are essential for your immune system.

Healthy practice
Fermented foods are high in gut-friendly probiotic bacteria and create beneficial micro-flora in the intestines. There is a scientific link between live-cultured food and good health.

Organic Farming...

As farmers in the Lillooet Valley, we use organic and regenerative farming practices. This means that no chemicals are used and our soil is enriched through the addition of organic matter such as hay mulch and cover crops. As fermenters, we use traditional techniques to create the most delicious, probiotic-rich and nutritious ferments possible without any additives. From our sauerkraut to our crispy dill pickles, we know every ingredient that goes into each jar from seed to culture. We are committed to providing the customer with only the highest quality product.

Who is Seed to Culture?

Jill and Christoph met in Lillooet in 2017 and started Seed to Culture in 2018. They both share a passion for holistic farming and healthy eating which is why they decided the only way to get the best tasting and most nutritious sauerkraut was to grow and ferment the cabbage themselves!
