The Plucky Pickle

Jules Goddard, aka The Plucky Pickle, has been fermenting and preserving for over 30 years and has taught well over 1,000 people at her events. After a career in hosting renewable energy conferences and global events for companies such as Informa and Thomson Reuters, Jules turned her passion for fermenting into a small business in Manchester, producing ferments for delis/restaurants and teaching masterclasses to the public and hospitality industry.

Jules is also CCO of The Fermenters Guild in the UK and Ireland, an association focused on supporting professionals who work with fermentation.

Her inspiration will always be her Italian nonna, whose jars of sour brilliance developed her taste buds from an early age. Her goal is to spread the love for fermented food and drink, demystify fermentation and show you how easy it is to preserve seasonal, local produce and how to use it in your everyday cooking.

Jules will join us at our Summer Camp Outdoors, Wellness & Adventure Weekend in 2025!
