“Booch” flows at coffee shops and health food stores. It’s become extremely trendy, but many people still don’t know why it’s good for them. Kombucha’s bacteria—the good kind of bacteria—supports everything from immune function and mental health to nutrient absorption.
A 16-ounce bottle of store-bought kombucha averages about $4. Brewing your own costs about 6¢ for 16 ounces! Join Velya and Ehris, the mother/daughter Grounded Goodwife duo, to learn how to make your own kombucha, and about the importance of adding fermented foods to your diet.

Gulls often elicit strong feelings. Thieving French fries at the beach and dumpster diving behind fast-food restaurants has earned them a negative reputation among humans. Most people do not know gulls have rich social lives. Pairs often stay together for many years and equally contribute to the incubation of eggs and raising hatchlings. Learn about the lives of the gulls that nest every year on Appledore Island, off the coast of southern Maine. Find out how they care for their young, how their population is doing in the Gulf of Maine, and how their individual quirks and personalities play out in the wild.
