TO ORD ER E AT YO UR WAY TO A H E A LT HI E R G UT By Anita Lau Fermentation Farm is an extension of a home business that outgrew its capacity. Owner Dr. Yasmine Mason, a chiropractor by trade, was seeing more and more people complaining about digestive issues at the practice she shares with her husband. It prompted her to make gut-healthy remedies for her patients, such as fermented yogurt, bone broth, kombucha and jun. Very quickly, Yasmine outgrew her kitchen; in 2014, she opened the current Fermentation Farm location on Victoria Street in Costa Mesa. The original single retail space has since grown, now comprising many kitchens, including one where fermenting classes are offered to the public.
