About FarmSteady DIY Food Kits
FarmSteady makes easy-to-use DIY food kits for people who'd rather make it themselves — turning fermenting, baking, and cider-making into approachable projects you can do on the kitchen counter. Each FarmSteady kit pairs the right reusable tools with the starter ingredients and clear step-by-step instructions you need to get a real result the first time. This collection brings together the FarmSteady kits we carry at Eartheasy, so you can pick a skill, gather a few fresh ingredients, and start making food you forgot could even be homemade.
Why People Choose FarmSteady Kits
Everything in one box: Each kit includes the durable equipment and the starter ingredients — you supply only the fresh produce, juice, or flour. No hunting down obscure tools before you can begin.
Real fermentation, no guesswork: The fermentation kits use traditional lacto-fermentation — not vinegar — to preserve vegetables and build gut-friendly flavor, with a glass fermentation weight and an airlock lid that take the uncertainty out of the process.
Made to be reused: The glass jars, banneton, racking cane, and scrapers are built to last, so once a kit gets you started you can keep making batch after batch with just refill ingredients.
Beginner-friendly by design: Clear instructions and forgiving recipes make FarmSteady a great entry point — the Sourdough Bread Making Tool Kit is perfect for both kids and adults — while still being satisfying for experienced home cooks.
