There’s something brewing in Maine’s south coast hub, and we venture to say it’s not what you might expect. Tucked away in the city’s industrial East Bayside area, Urban Farm Fermentory has been producing beverages like mead, hard cider, and kombucha (fermented tea) since early 2010. To find out what the buzz is about, drop in for a taste and tour, offered afternoons (excluding Monday and Tuesday) from March through December. But liquid refreshments aren’t the only thing on tap at this experimental micro farm. The backyard of UFF’s brick warehouse is home to two greenhouses, where everything from lavender to aquaponic lettuce is grown. Ready to create your own concoction? Sign up for a class on lacto-fermentation (think sauerkraut and kimchi), pickling, or mushroom cultivation. “We focus on tasty, locally sourced ingredients that are known to offer health benefits,” says founder Eli Cayer. Delicious and good for you? That’s one potent combination. urbanfarmfermentory.com http://www.portlandjetport.org http://www.urbanfarmfermentory.com
