two of the best non-commercial sites
Dom's Kefir site

and the
Weston A Price Foundation

Besides the sour kraut and typical fermented foods there's Caspian Sea
Yogurt - which requires no cooking and is smooth and drinkable. Kefir again
no cooking just straining which is a powerhouse and even my 3 and 8 year
olds will ask for it! There's also Kombucha Tea (recommended by Dr Robert
Barefoot/ Calcium Factor) KT is a longer ferment typically 6-8 days and
produces a sparkling apple cider-like tea. How to make kombucha Tea at my
site http://www.happyherbalist.com/pictures.htm.

The best thing is that once you get started its really easily, and cheap to
make your own. And there's a lot of help at the newsgroups. You may even ask
for  gift - as some of the members do gladly give starters away.
