Hedge Apple Kombucha's Community Can
Community Building Tradition
When Lindsey and Kyle moved to live out their dream life on the land in Fairfield, IA, they found connection through a simple yet powerful tradition, sharing homebrewed kombucha with neighbors. That tradition became Hedge Apple Kombucha, a business rooted in community and the joy of fermentation.
The "Community Can"
Lindsey and Kyle are bringing that spirit to New Pioneer Food Co-op with their Community Can, the reimagining of their original jasmine kombucha! They’ve made it more accessible both in price ($3.99 every day!) and in purpose. It’s their way of making kombucha more accessible while sharing the craft that helped them feel at home in a new place.
The Community Can is filled with the same high-quality, living kombucha culture they use in their own brew, giving someone the perfect foundation to start their own fermentation journey.
Just scan the QR code on the back of the can for their step-by-step recipe and expert brewing tips.
Find Hedge Apple Kombucha’s Community Can at New Pioneer and join them in keeping the tradition of homemade kombucha alive! Whether you're a first-time brewer or a seasoned fermenter, this is your invitation to craft something delicious and nourishing.
