5540 College Ave, Oakland, CA
Join us for a hands-on kimchi making workshop featuring a vegan version of traditional Napa cabbage kimchi — the heart of Korean fermentation! TIME & LOCATION Sunday August 9, 2026 from 12 pm – 2 pm Preserved, 5540 College Ave, Oakland, CA 94618 Together we'll taste a variety of kimchis in order to explore the flavors of lacto-fermentation, from sweet and sour, to salty and umami. You’ll learn the process step-by-step, and take home a quart jar filled with freshly made kimchi to ferment to your liking at home. This class is led by Aruna Lee, owner of Volcano Kimchi. She was born in South Korea and grew up in a Buddhist monastery where home-grown vegetables were at the heart of every meal. She launched Volcano Kimchi in 2014 with the aim of creating a high-quality, vegan kimchi reminiscent of her youth. Aruna’s kimchi is organic, vegan, gluten-free, and has no refined sugars. All students will receive a 10% discount on post-workshop purchases in our store. The minimum age for our workshops is 14 years old. All Workshop Sales are final. Reschedule requests require 5 days advanced notice.
Date: August 9, 2026 Time: 12:00 PM 2:00 PM $125.00

Preserved is a fermentation-focused kitchen shop and classroom in Oakland’s Rockridge neighborhood, right on the College Ave commercial strip. The front of the space functions as a retail store stocked with pantry staples, preserving tools and general cooking gear, so walking in for a class means passing shelves of jars, baking equipment, vinegars and grains. more...
