    The class went by quickly! Jo gave everyone the background/history of Kombucha and then went into the brewery process. Everyone got to take home a little SCOBY with directions on how to get started! I am new to Kombucha and had many questions - she is very knowledgeable and kind.

    Very informative class that made home brewing kombucha so much more accessible and less intimidating. I have my first batch brewing now and cannot wait to try it! Definitely take this class if you have thought about making your own kombucha :)

    This class was wonderful! It was educational and really easy to follow the process of how to make your own Kombucha. Molly Jo was very welcoming and helpful during the class and open to any emails with questions after (for those of us with fermentation fears!).
