We are proud to offer many different organic grown cultured drinks and foods from around the world. From Kombucha tea drinks and Kefir grain starter cultures, we have many healthy refreshing pro-biotic starter cultures made the way nature intended.

Cultured and fermented foods and drinks aid the body and digestive system by providing rich array of pro-biotic and pre-biotics that assist the body in breaking down hard to digest foods and providing the body with fresh, active intestinal flora and beneficial bacteria. Pro-biotics increases natural intestinal flora, and may help prevent the development of pathogenic germs, including salmonella, E. coli, Candida, and other well known 'bugs'.

Fermented and cultured foods may also aid the digestion by changing or removing chemicals or compounds found in soy or milk products that some research has shown could be harmful to the body. Certain individuals may have intolerance for dairy, such as lactose intolerance seen with milk products, a good daily dose of probiotics may assist or totally remove the disease. Many people, who can not use dairy products, find that they can use cultured milk products, as the heavy proteins and lactose are broken down by the active bacteria and yeast found in the different cultures.

Most people know of yogurt, real cheese, buttermilk, and sourdough bread – all cultured food products. However, in the US, most know little about cultured dairy drinks such as Kefir (Balkans), Amazake a rice drink from Japan, Fil Mjölk (Sweden), or Fresh Viili (Finland). All these cultures are living foods used for years throughout the world to ferment and preserve food stores. Many of these wonderful cultured foods may be used in place of milk in recipes, used to preserve other types of food, or to make many types of fresh soft cheeses easily from your kitchen.

If dairy is not your thing, we have cultures that work for the vegan lifestyle, too! Water kefir is a nice source for a natural soda or try some fresh lemonaid made right at home! What ever your needs, we can get you started on the path of traditional cultured fermented foods and health.

Our Cultures Food Source - All our dairy cultures are grown with organic whole milk

All our other cultures are maintained on certified organic ingredients or natural sources.

* Because of the small risk of pathogen growth in home fermented cultures, it is NOT recommended for those with weakened immune systems, e.g. pregnant women, the elderly, the very young and the chronically ill.

PLEASE NOTE: We ship most of our cultures via Signature Confirmation, please tell us in the comments section if you need this changed. We ship most fresh cultures on Mondays and Tuesdays only.

During the hot summer months or when shipping to hotter regions, we can only guarantee these dairy cultures with USPS Express Mail 1-2 day($20.80 to most USA) or UPS 2-Day shipping or faster. All our cultures are shipped with protective packaging and ice pack, if needed, to aid the cultures during transport.

For the winter months, please have someone ready to receive the package to keep it from freezing. Please let us know and we can make sure someone must sign for your package vs. being left in freezing or hot temperatures.
