At Wild West Ferments we are inspired by the ancient wisdom of our work. Fermentation is an age-old practice of preserving and enhancing food through a simple dance with nature. The act of fermenting foods has been engaged to preserve harvests and create alcohol (and religious experiences) by ancient cultures all over the world. In every culture known, the lore and traditions related to fermentation help us understand what a vital role it plays in food systems and religious beliefs. Today the frontiers of science are focusing on the benefits of fermentation in a myriad of realms, confirming that age-old ways have value beyond our knowing.
Trust
We talk a lot about integrity. Integrity, to us, is doing the right thing, whether anyone will know or not. It is an important part of who we are and what we do. The drive for profit and lack of accountability in our modern food system has created a dynamic that is not conducive for profit-driven food companies to do right by consumers. We are dedicated to offering products that defy this norm, by holding ourselves to our own high standards and ethics. We are honored to have the trust and confidence of our customers.
