As of early 2026 we've saved more than 5.5 tonnes of perfectly edible, surplus produce from being diverted to animal feed or from the bin. That's the equivalent of around 90,000 carrots! Now, this is only a tiny fraction of the amount of produce that we use in our sauerkrauts and kimchis. Connecting with when and where food is wasted is tricky, especially when we have quite tight windows that we can ferment in. But, we're always striving to increase how much we rescue and are committed to maintaining this mission!

Through our brand we highlight the huge problem with food waste we have here in the UK. One main way we do this is through our in-person workshops and online courses teaching the ancient skills of fermentation. Since a huge proportion of food is wasted at the household level this provides an important skill to reduce food being wasted at home. Fermentation is a fiercely effective way of preserving fresh produce making it last signifcantly longer than it would just sat in the fridge.

Since we began in 2019 we've made a quarterly donation to various FareShare charities (primarily in Scotland and Wales where our business has been based). FareShare helps redistribute surplus food to local communities who need it most, fighting the big problem with food insecurity we have in the UK. We donate between 1-2% of our turnover to support the incredible work they do. Since we donate a proportion of sales (not profit) you can be reassured that every jar you buy is helping make a difference!
