Our Story

We make T-Shirts inspired by the art and joy of fermentation.

Founded by former small-batch fermenter Tracey, our designs celebrate the craft, patience, and connection that fermentation brings - from kitchen experiments to centuries-old traditions.

Hi, I’m Tracey — founder of We Are Cultured.

I discovered fermentation after making my first batch of kombucha - and I was hooked.
From there, I tried everything: kimchi, miso, koji, natto, tempeh. I loved the mix of tradition, science, and creativity… and the quiet magic of watching something transform on the countertop.

What started as a home hobby grew into a small-batch fermentary. I spent years making kimchi, sauerkraut, and other ferments for customers. These days, I still ferment at home - but now I design T-shirts for people who share the same obsession as me.

What We Make

We create T-shirts inspired by the world of fermentation.
Each piece is designed for people who appreciate the craft, the patience, and the joy of this age-old process.

Why We Do It

Fermentation is more than food — it’s a reminder that good things take time.
It connects us to the people who came before us and to others who share our passion today.

We Are Cultured exists to celebrate that connection — with designs that speak to the fermenters, bakers, brewers, and anyone keeping these traditions alive.

Our shirts simply say: Yep, I’m into that too.
