Kombucha Brewery Sustainable Fermentation Pledge

Take the Sustainable Fermentation Pledge for Your Kombucha Brewery

The craft kombucha movement has always been about more than just great-tasting beverages—it's about creating products that are good for people and the planet. Our Sustainable Fermentation Pledge template helps kombucha breweries, taprooms, and fermentation businesses formalize their commitment to environmental practices that reduce waste, support organic agriculture, and build circular economy models.

Whether you're a small-batch home brewer scaling up or an established kombucha brand looking to strengthen your sustainability credentials, this pledge form makes it easy to document your commitments across organic sourcing, packaging innovation, and SCOBY sharing programs.

Why Kombucha Breweries Need Sustainability Pledges

The fermented beverage industry has a unique opportunity—and responsibility—to lead on environmental issues. From organic tea and sugar sourcing to bottle reuse programs and SCOBY donation networks, sustainable kombucha brewing creates positive ripple effects throughout your supply chain and community.

This Paperform template helps you:

• Capture detailed commitments across ingredients, packaging, energy use, and community initiatives
• Engage your team and customers by making your values transparent and actionable
• Track progress with clear baseline data and specific goals
• Build credibility with eco-conscious consumers who care about how their kombucha is made

Built for the Craft Beverage and Sustainability Community

This form is specifically designed for kombucha breweries, fermentation collectives, beverage incubators, and sustainability-focused food and beverage organizations. It covers the unique aspects of sustainable kombucha production including organic tea procurement, SCOBY lifecycle management, bottle return programs, and fermentation byproduct composting.

The form includes conditional logic that adapts to your brewery's current practices—whether you're just starting your sustainability journey or already have advanced programs in place. You can collect information about organic certification status, current packaging solutions, energy sources, and community engagement initiatives.

Automate Your Sustainability Workflows with Stepper

Once breweries submit their pledge, you can use Stepper to automatically route commitments to the right team members, add pledgers to your sustainability network mailing list, generate customized welcome packets with SCOBY sharing guidelines, and even trigger follow-up check-ins at 3, 6, and 12 months to track progress on goals.

For sustainability organizations and industry associations, Stepper can aggregate pledge data across multiple breweries, create regional impact reports, and coordinate SCOBY exchange networks—all without manual spreadsheet work.

Customize Your Pledge to Match Your Mission

This template gives you a solid foundation, but Paperform's document-style editor makes it incredibly easy to add your organization's branding, include photos of your fermentation facility, embed educational videos about sustainable brewing, or add specific pledge levels (Bronze, Silver, Gold) based on different commitment tiers.

You can customize questions to reflect regional priorities (water conservation in drought-prone areas, renewable energy in certain states), add product-specific questions for flavored kombuchas, hard kombucha, or jun tea variations, and include local SCOBY library or cooperative program details.
