KOMBUCHA
Your Gateway to Wild!
Collingwood Kombucha is committed to offering people a beverage alternative to alcohol, juice and pop when dining and socializing, which will have positive effects on the entire body. My process focuses on the ingredients we need most, follows tradition and strives to deliver something outside of the sphere of our standard beverage choices.
Freedom
Freedom comes with knowledge, be part of the process and embrace what your body truly needs.
Evolution
Join the evolution of our health, a product that is good for you and good for the planet.
Natural
We take nothing away, it is always wholly, completely natural.
My grand mother was just 45 yrs old when her doctor told her she had lupus and that there was nothing they could do to help her. On her way home from work one day she stopped at Kensington market and met a Chinese man who sent her home with all kinds of plants/roots for medicinal tea, herbal tinctures in a little brown bottle and an alternative way to look at her disease. From that day forward she took control of her own health by including traditional and herbal medicines in her daily routine. She lived a strong and vibrant life, free from the disease, until she died in 2015 at the age 96. Her story inspired me to follow my own journey of natural healing.
Volunteering on an organic farm in 2012, the farmer was brewing a large batch of Kombucha and I loved the alien looking thing that created the fizzy tangy beverage we enjoyed at lunch. I went home with a mason jar filled with starter tea (kombucha) and my very own SCOBY (mother - Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast). This inspired me to start on my journey, helping people on their wellness journey through better gut health.
Since being diagnosed with IBS, I have started drinking Kombucha and eating more fermented foods and have been amazed at the results.
I had never found an alternative to alcohol that I wanted to drink when socializing until I found Kombucha. It has literally changed my life.
Christy has been so attentive, warm and instructive and I feel inspired by her journey. My body feels rejuvenated now fermented products are part of my daily life.
