✨ To our Fairmental community,

We want to share an important update about how we’re working with our fermented vegetables going forward.

Running a small independent food business means constantly adapting, and over time we’ve realised that our current production model for wholesale is not sustainable for us anymore. For now, we are pausing wholesale production of our fermented vegetables.

This allows us to focus our energy back where it belongs - on creativity, flavour, and the kitchen we love working in.

Our fermentation is absolutely not stopping. In fact, it’s becoming more focused and more experimental. We’ll be working in small batches, creating unique, seasonal, and limited-edition ferments that will only be available from our café and occasionally through our online shop. This is where we can really showcase our ideas, try new things, and keep fermentation evolving in a way that feels true to us.

At the same time, our priority is very much the café - the people who come through our doors, the community we’ve built here, and the food we serve every day. We want to keep everything as local, thoughtful, and sustainable as possible, and ensure that what we offer in the café reflects the best of what Fairmental stands for.

We’re excited to be putting more energy into this space, focusing on serving honest, nourishing food and continuing to build a place that feels good for both our team and our customers.

We know some of our fermented vegetables have become staples for many of you and for shops that stock us. We’re open to continuing those bestsellers when the right opportunity comes along - whether that’s space, investment, or someone who can support us with a dedicated production setup. At the moment, we don’t have the capacity or funding to develop this ourselves, so wholesale will not continue in its current form.

We’re excited about this next chapter: smaller batches, more creativity, a stronger focus on our café, and a much closer connection to what we make and serve.

Thank you for continuing to support Fairmental and being part of our journey.

Val & the Fairmental Team x
