Meet the Business Owner

Dr. Yasmine M.

Business Owner

Dr. Yasmine Mason grew up on a family farm in Nevada understanding the importance of growing organic vegetables and organically raised animals. With a passion for teaching others about proper nutrition and health, Dr. Yas attended Palmer College of Chiropractic-​West in 1996. In 2000, together with her husband, Derek Mason, DC, they started Lifespring Chiropractic in Newport Beach. After many years in practice, she took some time off to start a family. During that time she began to experiment with traditional fermentation techniques to keep her family healthy and make sure that her kids grew up with healthy microbiomes. She immediately had a knack for fermenting her own zingy yogurt, making tasty krauts, and brewing her flavorful and fizzy kombucha. Realizing that there was a real need for healthy fermented foods, she opened Fermentation Farm in September of 2014 with the vision of building a strong community of people who share her passion for these handcrafted, traditional foods.

Fermentation Farms fills a real need for fresh fermented foods. I have been suggesting fermented foods to my patients for a long time now but they are not so easy to get until now. I like the variety of foods that they have as well as the classes on how to make your own fermented foods. Good health begins in the gut and these fermented foods have good bacteria to feed your gut. I highly recommend Fermented Farms

The ziggy yogurt was awesome, the smokey cheese and garlic cheese is to die for.

Love this place! I can’t find local meats anywhere in town other than here… and the homemade yogurt is to die for. I will definitely be back for the pasture-​raised eggs, grass-​fed bison, and kombucha! What an amazing place that is taking a stand in healthy, fermented food that is easy on the digestive system and great for the gut!

The place was packed on a Saturday afternoon. We checked in and got a free month trial membership. I read that this is the Costco of fermented foods — essentially, that’s what it is. They have fermented veggies that you can try, including garlic sauerkraut and vegan daikon kimchee, carrots, etcetera. Of course, they had bone broth in the back as well, for $ 12 for 3 servings. They have meats, some cheeses, and raw milk.
But what we really came here for was for the zingy yogurt. We got 4 small containers and saw that the lady in front of us also bought 4 for herself. We also ended up with Heritage Hog bacon.
They have scobys for $ 15 and offer classes as well ($ 25 per class and $ 15 for the kit).
The disappointing product was actually their kombucha. We prefer a strong vinegary taste. They ran out of their master tonic, which we would’ve gotten for a toothache — it’s a savory combination with turmeric.

A fresh, organic, raw, healthy, superfood grocery store specializing in natural fermented foods, raw organic dairy, spices, pickles, Kombucha Tea & drinks, and many other homemade goodness. They offer classes to teach fermentation techniques, meal plans, and natural healthy lifestyle living. A community of healthy people with happy lives. A must visit for a unique and fun experience with friendly people. This is a membership only store: $ 5 fee to join for a trial week or $ 25 for a lifetime membership.

Five stars for friendly staff and excellent products. My ND referred me to this place and I make weekly trips here. Thank you Fermentation Farm for your healthy products! Alex is so nice and helpful as is everyone who I’ve encountered over the past several months. I only wish you were closer to my house and for a little more consistency with bone broth batches. The chicken bone broth I’ve bought on two occasions (today was one example and I purchased 5 jars) have been less flavorful, and less gelatinous. All other batches have excellent. I especially like it when there is a slight peppery taste.

Also great are the workshops on fermenting food at home, including making homemade kombucha! Dr. Yasmin (sp?) shows just how easy it is, plus you can buy a SCOBY there for $ 15 (price as of 12⁄2015).

We’ve been members here over a year and I don’t know what I’d do without this place. We don’t want to move out of Costa Mesa because we love Fermentation Farm so much – we get refills on our Kombucha growlers every two weeks, and we’re addicted to the zingy yogurt, beet kraut, and master tonic. Also love finding sprouted oats here too. And wild boar bacon! The people are always SO helpful and friendly. Love supporting this business.

We came in just before closing on a Saturday. They were pretty sold out of everything, but the hubs bought some bacon.
This is a cool, grassroots place. Come here to support local farmers, artisans and small biz owners.
If you like kombucha tea, you will flip!
I didn’t know until I got there, but it is a «membership based» store. Meaning you can pay a $ 5 fee to join for a trial week or $ 25 for a lifetime membership.

Fermentation Farm is a really great business. The people that run it are knowledgeable and very helpful. This is a place that is centered around lacto-​fermetation. As in lactobacilli bacteria which is very good for stomach health.
I bought a growler full of passion fruit kombucha which they made on the premises. This is some of the best kombucha that I have ever tasted. It is fresh and the passion fruit flavor is so delicious. I also purchased some zingy yogurt that was creamy, had a nice vanilla flavor and was excellent. Lastly, I purchased some Master Tonic which was made with tumeric, dandelion greens, ginger, horseradish root, garlic, onion, lemon, basil, habanero, jalapeño, apple cider vinegar, black pepper corns and sea salt. This stuff is supposed to cleanse your system and boost your immunities. I have been taking an ounce of it a day and I really like it.
I am looking forward to returning to get some more of their yummy kombucha and try some more of their other very interesting products and food. And, I am sure that my stomach will very grateful.

Update.
It’s Saturday morning I just devoured the jar of fermented raw Zingy yogurt-​it was delicious.
Oh my goodness.
This store is amazing and the ladies who run it are outstanding.
I found this store by driving by.
Check them out online and found their amazing assortment of fermented foods.
They offered samples of their delicious Kombu ha and home made fermented yogurt.
I’m sitting at home now eating dinner that I made with bison burgers and the chicken bone broth and fermented beet kraut I purchased.
I’m going to sign up for some of the cooking classes they offer.
Check this place out if you care about your gut health.

Even if your a fermubie, do not hesitate and head directly to FF. You’ll find a kombucha bar, fermented veges like beets, ginger carrots, pico de gallo and their very special yogurt. Their master tonic is a hoot! You will also find pastures eggs, brines & bone broths!
The staff is knowledgable, helpful & very friendly.
Don’t be afraid to ask questions.

I’m not what you would consider a health food junkie, but Fermentation Farm still piqued my interest! I had never heard of half of the things in this store which made it a bit overwhelming! Luckily, the associates are EXTREMELY knowledgeable about all of their offerings. Kombucha, Dilly Beans, Kefir Soda, Beet Brine — I learned so much about these products in my short visit!
Be sure to ask for Lizy when you come in — she gave me some great recommendations. I am officially addicted to the Apple Kombucha!
Do yourself a favor and give this place a shot! At the very least, it will be an educational experience!

Attention all foodies/​nutrition junkies, this is your heaven. Fermentation Farm is one of a kind here in Costa Mesa. House made kombuchas, all sorts of different pickled veggies, and of course, pasture raised meats and eggs all from small, local farms.
Don’t be overwhelmed by all the options here, and don’t be afraid to ask questions; the staff are genuine and knowledgable about all the products they sell. Yasmine, the owner, is a chiropractor and a walking encyclopedia when it comes to alternative medicine and the benefits of fermented products.
Come in just once and you’ll become a regular like I did.

Enjoyed my first time here!
This place is super clean with great service. Brad helped me out to some samples of their kombucha on tap. Awesome variety! Fresh kombucha was so good I had to take one home :)
Definitely coming back soon. Thanks Ferm Farm!

Love this place!
First off, the people that work there are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about what they do. You can tell that they love where they work, and it gets me excited about learning and shopping.
I’ve purchased and consumed kombucha, master tonic, free range eggs, bone broth, collagen powder, beet kraut, taro chips, and ginger soda. I’m all about health & wellness and I love fueling my body with all this goodness! Fermentation Farm makes it convenient for me because it’s a one stop shop.
I think it’s great that they offering cooking classes. I haven’t taken any yet, but I will soon!
Definitely stop by and check the place out! You only have one body, so make sure to take care of it. =)

I first heard about Fermentation Farm from someone I was following on Instagram. I wanted to check it out because as I age, my body just doesn’t do the stuff I want it to anymore. I first tried the kombucha, zingy yogurt and eggs.
I enjoy the kombucha but I do prefer a bit more fizz to my kombucha. The upside to this is that Yasmine has monthly classes to teach us normal folk how to make Kombucha. Yay!
I freaking LOVE the zingy raw yogurt. This is not your typical yogurt and it is worth every penny. If my tongue was long enough, I’d lick the jar. Yasmine ALSO teaches a class on this as well!
The eggs, of course, are the most happy eggs I’ve ever seen.
Now on to my review of the classes. I’ve taken both the Kombucha and Yogurt classes. They were both awesome. Yasmine does a thorough job of explaining and making the process super easy. You get to munch on some tasty snacks and she does all the talking and making. You can bring home a kit for either class at $ 15 and the yogurt class comes with your own jar of yogurt to enjoy.
The cost of making yogurt at home is a bit pricey but less expensive than purchasing it directly from the Farm. I made a batch at home and even threw in some blueberries for a walk on the wild side. Still the best yogurt I’ve ever had. If I *had* to describe it … its like eating vanilla bean whipped cream with some zazz in it.
The kombucha class was awesome as well. I feel like I could definitely survive in a Hunger Games world with all the info I’ve received from these classes. Yasmine is sweet as pie, knowledgeable and a chiropractor to boot! So in essence, shes super woman!
Fermentation Farm will soon be expanding to handle all of our wonderful fermented needs. I can’t wait to see what else they have up their sleeves!

We were referred to this place by a friend. My wife signed up as a member on her first visit. She loved the coconut chocolates and the fermented yogurt. The prices are a little high, but understandable for the amount of quality put into the process. The kambucha drinks are not as strong as the ones I had in NYC, so I was sort of disappointed because I was hoping to find the same taste in my neck of the woods. I suppose that will be my little treat when I go back to NYC.
On a good note «Fermentation Farm» is the only place around that carries Dandelion coffee! It is the best substitute to coffee without the caffein.
I also like the packaging. The jars are great and can be reused or brought back for refills! I love that! Overall, this is a great place to at least check out!
