Launched by founder and “fermentress” Aruna Lee in 2014, Volcano Kimchi is a San Francisco-based producer of vegan and organic Korean food products, including kimchi, sauces, and other specialties. Aruna was born in South Korea, and grew up in a buddhist monastery where every meal included a variety of home-grown and locally-harvested vegetables, served in an array of vibrant and nutritious ways. Some of her earliest memories are of sneaking away to steal bites of kimchi from the assortment of crock pots that lined the temple walls. The memory of these flavors provides the guiding inspiration we use in preparing each batch of Volcano Kimchi.
