Fermentation, kefir & kombucha

In our family we are very interested in natural healthy foods.
Therefore we have gotten a kombucha mother or scoby, we also have scoby for milk kefir and water kefir. In case anyone is interested in getting that, I often have too much of it, as it grows and am willing to send it to anyone who wants it, just drop me a line.
We also do a lot of fermenting, we make sauerkraut, cortido, kimchi and other sauerkraut types. We have also made fermented carrots with ginger.
Furthermore we make our own bread, sourdough bread.
The good thing about natural fermented foods is that it is lactofermented and with that it makes the food more nutritional for us, we can digest it better and are better able to get the nutrients out of our food.
