Vendor Profile: Oly Kraut

OlyKraut handcrafts sauerkrauts, pickles, and sipping brines in Olympia, Washington. For nearly a decade they've developed their original recipes, using centuries-old preservation techniques, and sourcing the best possible ingredients. They seriously shred, thanks to their fantastic employees, delivery drivers, and farmers’ market folks who live across the Pacific Northwest.

Sash Sunday, Founder, discovered that the best way for her to contribute to the food system and economy she would like to see is by putting her fermentation fanaticism to good use turning regional farmers’ produce into delicious sauerkraut. She has spent the last decade working directly with farmers, learning about sustainability and agriculture, and wondering how to restructure the economy so it could support a better future.

Sash is continuously trying to learn more about sustainability and generative business so that every decision she makes as an owner supports those values. She graduated from the Evergreen State College where she focused on Food, Fermentation, and Sustainable Agriculture and earned her MBA in Sustainable Systems at Bainbridge Graduate Institute at Pinchot University.
