How is Bwblin Carbon Neutral?
Bwblin offsets 50 tonnes of CO₂e emissions each year through verified projects in the Woodland Fund™ Portfolio.
This means that for every tonne of carbon we create, we invest in global carbon reduction initiatives—such as reforestation and renewable energy—that remove or prevent the same amount of emissions. Our impact is independently verified, and we receive a Certificate of Credit Retirement as proof of our contribution.
Why should I eat fermented food?
Fermented foods – like kimchi red cabbage, sauerkraut, kefir, miso, and kombucha – are packed with natural probiotics (beneficial bacteria) that support gut health. A balanced gut microbiome can help with digestion, boost your immune system, and even improve mood and energy levels.
Five more reasons to eat organic fermented foods.
Fermentation also makes food more nutritious by:
- Enhancing nutrient absorption by breaking down compounds that block nutrients.
- Creating new vitamins (some fermented foods naturally produce B vitamins and vitamin K2).
- Reducing sugar and starch as microbes consume them during the process.
Plus, fermented foods are flavorful; tangy, complex, and satisfying, so they add variety to your diet while being good for you.
How do I know Bwblin's food is safe?
Your safety comes first. Every single batch of Bwblin’s organic fermented foods goes through a full independent microbiological test before it ever reaches you. Only once the results confirm it’s completely safe is the batch released for sale.
In the food industry, this process is called “positive release” meaning nothing leaves our kitchen until it’s proven safe.
Why is each pouch £8.50?
At Bwblin, we believe in being completely transparent. Each pouch price reflects not just the high-quality ingredients, but also the real costs behind making food that’s organic, vegan, carbon-neutral, and certified by trusted bodies like B Corp and SALSA
When you buy a pouch, your payment covers:
- Ingredients and packaging
- Postage and website upkeep
- Marketing, insurance, and rent/utilities
- Independent certifications (Vegan, Organic, Carbon Neutral, B Corp, SALSA, etc.)
I (Anna, the founder) take only the bare minimum for myself. I’m not in this for fancy cars or big houses. My purpose is to make healthy eating more convenient, tasty, and meaningful.
The truth is, the profit per pouch is very small, and I only break even when we sell in larger volumes. But as we grow, I’m committed to sharing profits with charities across the UK, so together we can make the world a healthier, fairer place.
When will I get my order?
We will work quickly to ship your order as soon as possible. Once your order has shipped, you will receive an email with further information. Delivery times vary depending on your location.
Why organic fermented foods?
Because better ingredients make better ferments and a healthier planet.
No pesticides or synthetic fertilisers — just clean, naturally grown produce.
Richer flavour & nutrition — organic veg has the depth and crunch our ferments need.
Soil-friendly — organic farming helps keep ecosystems and biodiversity thriving.
People-friendly — safer for farmers, makers, and you.
For us, organic isn’t a trend — it’s the foundation.
Why seasonal and British produce?
Because it’s fresher, tastier, and kinder to the planet.
Peak flavour & nutrition — veg picked in season is naturally at its best.
Lower food miles — grown close to home, not flown across the world.
Supports local growers — we work with British farmers who care for their land.
Planet-friendly — eating with the seasons keeps things sustainable.
Seasonal, local, and full of character – that’s what makes our fermented foods sing.
How long do Bwblin fermented vegetables last?
Unopened in the fridge? Up to 3 months (check the best-before date).
Once opened? Best enjoyed within 2 weeks — but often delicious longer!

What is fermentation?
Fermentation is a natural process where beneficial bacteria good for our gut is given the right environment to multiply and prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. It’s nature’s magic trick that turning fresh veg into tangy, probiotic-rich gut goodness using only salt and time. No heat, no fuss, just flavour.
Are Bwblin products pasteurised?
Nope! Never. Our ferments are raw and unpasteurised to keep all that beneficial bacteria alive and kickin’.
Is your packaging sustainable?
Is your packaging sustainable?
Yes! Sustainability is part of our recipe.
Our pouches are recyclable at most large supermarkets.
They’re made from safe plastic — free from BPA and other nasties.
Lightweight packaging means fewer fossil fuels used in transport — from our kitchen in Wales to your doorstep.
We also use glass jars with recyclable labels where possible.
And we’re proud to be carbon neutral, covering both our packaging and our process.
The planet matters to us!
How do you pronounce Bwblin?
We're pronounced ‘bubblin’’— a Welsh-inspired nod to the gentle bubbling that happens during fermentation. Just like the name, our jars are full of life. Each batch is alive!
