Big News!
I have an announcement to make: I have received so many requests from all of you for recipes and techniques that I decided now was the time to buckle down and focus on a collection of them in an ebook for you. More details to come soon on this!
This means, however, that I won’t be able to spend too much time posting on this blog so I can focus on this amazing ebook. I have a lot of fun guest posts planned from some great bloggers and….I am going to do a weekly giveaway to keep you all entertained!

So here we go…this week’s reader’s choice giveaway is my favorite Fermentation Jars – a set of 3 sizes! I use these jars to make all of my fermented foods (what are fermented foods?) including sauerkraut, kefir, pickles and the BEST fermented mayo and ketchup!
FYI: This is not a sponsored giveaway — I am paying for the prize myself, and will have it mailed to the lucky winner.

Thank You for doing this. I just followed your Saurkaut recipe and have some brewing.
I would love to win this set of jars. Currently I use 4 1.7 liter Masons for my veggie fermentation but would love to try different ones. Thank you for this giveaway!
I’m determined to start eating a lot of fermented food, but it’s intimidating to start! I loved your post on using these jars. After a host of issues, my son, daughter and I are trying to regain a balanced gut. I would love to stop buying probiotics, but I have to figure this out first! First on my list would be sauerkraut, then ketchup (my little guy would love this!), pickles, dilly carrots, garlic, then on to more adventurous foods!
I’d love to make some kimchi – we just jarred up our first batch of sauerkraut – a giant head of cabbage from our CSA box required a 5 gallon jar! We could definitely use some smaller jars for fermenting!
Can’t wait to use these type of jars so I can try fermented foods. I’ve never made them or tried them and we are establishing a simple diet. These would be a great help
I am just starting to learn how to ferment and I have read a lot of positive reviews about these jars. Would love to win them to expand my repertoire and to be able to make different sized batches of various food items. Thanks for all the awesome giveaway!

I really want to start fermenting my own foods. These would be great!! I just got a book telling how to ferment foods!!
there are so many things I could do with these jars. I have never fermented food before so I would probably give that a try.
We have a couple Harsch crocks going with our plain sauerkraut, but I’ve never gotten around to fermenting anything else. Kimchee? Beets? Fermented ketchup? So many options!
I would love these jars for all my fermenting… lots of kombucha, carolina slaw and beets on the counter at all times!

I plan to make my first batch ever of fermented vegetables, fermented mayo, and kefir!
I want to ferment veggies that come in my newly established co-op basket! So excited!
This is a cool give-a-way. We became organic two years ago. About 4 months ago, we started making sauerkraut because I had so much left-over cabbage. About 3 months ago, the home-made yogurt endeavors began. The goal is 1-2 or more cups of whole organic yogurt daily for the rest of my life. What is lacking right now is the Fido Fermentation Jars. We would use the fermenting jars right away and often. They would provide the new energy to move forward. Striving to do it better, easier, and with more joy is what we are after! In peace and love, thank you.–Dawn
I have been wanting to start fermenting for awhile now. First on the list is garlic, kefir and ketchup!

I have made so many positive changes in the past year from starting to exercise, to cutting out processed food, wheat and dairy. One of my next steps is to start incorporating fermented foods. I have tried sauerkraut and would like to try the ketchup and kefir.
I really want to try sauerkraut and kefir, but I just haven’t gotten to stock the kitchen!
I would love to try making my pickled carrots and pickled garlic/onions with the fido jars. I have just been fermenting with regular mason jars, so this would be a step up and I would love to see how they turn out..Thanks for this giveaway!
Sauerkraut!
I have just started fermenting, not yet done with my first sauerkrat. These jars would be great for trying out other veggies!

My New Years resolution is to make and eat fermented foods! I’ve been looking for fermenting jars to make sauerkraut and kimchi, and pickles for the family.
I just started researching on making sauerkraut! This is a sign 🙂 And it is what I would do if I won!
Fermented ketchup is practically a must for everyone. So many things and so little time. Small jars just make life easier, now that my kids are grown & have “raided” my storage room. 🙂
On our goals list to accomplish in 2013 is fermenting sauerkraut, mayo and veggies from our tiny organic garden. These jars would sure help out. I can hear them opening and closing now!. We want better gut health and this is the way to
achieve that. Thank you for the opportunity to enter.
After reading several reviews on fido jars, I have wanted to try them instead of mason jars. I have been trying a variety of different vegetables lately and want to try brussels sprouts soon.

Cool!!
Would love to try fermenting and having those jars would sure help. Thank you.
Oh… I could use these in so many ways…. but I would love to get back to making raw sauerkraut like we did when was a kid… sooo yummy. And I want to start making other fermented foods as well….
I love these fido jars…..I not only ferment vegys in them but I use them for my dehydrated vegys also. Always running out of them to use.

I have a 7-month-old daughter who is starting to eat solid foods. I just learned about lacto-fermenting foods to make them more digestible for her, and of course that applies to the whole family. We’re new to the world of fermenting foods, but I plan to make sauerkraut and lacto-fermented sweet potatoes first. I hope I win!
So excited to have real fermentation jars~can’t wait to learn how to do this!
I’m just beginning with ferments and would love to try it with Fido jars!

These jars look great and I’d love to have them for all of my fermentation recipes I’ve been wanting to try!
