Hi, I’m Marcea! :-)

I’m a published author of 8 books on food and wellness. I have a private practice focusing on body-mind health through lifestyle, diet, mental health and wellness. I have over thirty years of experience. I studied Macrobiotics, fermentation and plant-based cooking and nutrition in Japan, India, and the US, along with psychotherapy, and Traditional Chinese Nutritional Medicine.
This knowledge has helped me re-balance my own health and develop a unique understanding of how food can affect our overall mental and physical health and be medicinal. Through this experience, I have developed a unique style of cooking and health which I am passionate about sharing with others.

If you have ever wanted to know how to master ferments and make the perfect sauerkraut, kimchi or salt-brine pickles, or dumplings or Japanese cooking then one of my cooking classes is where you’ll want to explore.

Marcea is a wonderful teacher. Very generous with her knowledge and wisdom. We had a fantastic afternoon and I feel confident that I will be successful fermenting in the future thanks to Marcea. Definitely do this course if you are interested in making delicious healthful ferments full of probiotics.

Really enjoyed this class! Marcea is incredibly knowledgeable and a great teacher. I learned so much. I'd read the how-to blogs but there really isn't a substitute for an in-person demo. Marcea generously shared her tips and tricks that she has built up over the years. Highly recommend.

I enjoyed learning how to ferment from an expert, who provided beautiful ingredients and demonstrated the procedures, making sure everyone was clear on what was necessary to succeed. Marcea also invited feedback and sharing about our ferments.
