3. We will make you fall in love with bacteria
It might sound a little strange, but we love bacteria! And we think you do to. Because when you think about it all of our favorite foods get their delicious taste because of tiny micro-organisms. Kimchi, trassi, wine, beer, yoghurt, cheese, sausage, bread... Need we say more?
4. It will be a Fungi Heaven
If there is one thing we love, it's mushrooms! You can try the snacks by Terra Bites in which they use mushrooms grown on a substrate from coffee-grounds and other organic materials. Or attend our Magic Mushroom workshop, which starts at 16:00!
5. Because nothing lasts
Maybe you didn't know yet, but we will be moving... So this might be one of the last summer days ever to enjoy our fantastic urban beach and overlook the gigantic 19th century van Gendthallen.
6. We will show you how sauerkraut is made.
The original way, that is.. With our very own cabbage-stomping team. With an astounding amount of 60 kilos of cabbage, there will be some very busy feet!
7. Sourdough bakers are the new rockstars
MotherYeast homebakers will be on the spot to teach you how to make your own sourdough bread. They use an old family recipe to prepare and share their bread. And they will make amazing sourgdough pizza's! Take a sneakpeak here.
8. Art and food go well together
While you're there you can also indulge in some 19th century artforms of nature. With a nice little game, if you feel like it!
