Teaches at New York Botanical Garden

Cheryl Paswater is a fermentationist, educator, health coach, artist, beekeeper, and writer. After a near-death experience, she turned to holistic medicine for help. Radical diet and lifestyle changes led her deep into the study of fermentation, old world food preservation, the human microbiome, food ethics, and holistic health. Cheryl runs a popular fermentation project called Contraband Ferments, contributes as a writer for Edible Brooklyn, has guest co-hosted on Heritage Food Radio Network's Fuhmentaboudit!, co-organizes the NYC Fermentation Festival, and is a co-organizer of the NYC Ferments Meetup. She is currently working on her first book while teaching workshops at festivals both regionally and internationally, and lives in Brooklyn, NY, with all of her cultures as pets (a.k.a. bacteria, yeast, and mold).

    Cheryl was easy to understand, shared a great deal of information and was great at taking our questions throughout the class. I found the information she provided very informative and also thought provoking. I intend to do some research on a few items she shared to see what improvements my family and I might be able to make to optimize our health.

    The setting was not right for a food making class. The instructor was good. I thought we could have done more in 2 hours...
