On Tuesday 7th of January, the 7 partners gathered for the second time in Illkirch (close to Strasbourg) and were hosted by Aérial. The meeting was focused on the main advances carried out on the fermented vegetables food model with exiting results confirming the hypothesis postulated earlier in the project. Also, the evening before the meeting, Aérial organized a specific visit of the largest Sauerkraut producer in France, at a small village 30 km south of Strasbourg.
