Elephant Garlic Flowers present a delightful visual and culinary experience. These blossoms, which emerge from the robust Elephant Garlic plant, captivate with their subtle elegance— featuring small, bulbous heads that burst into star-like white flowers. Their mild garlic flavor is less assertive than the bulbs themselves, making the flowers an exquisite garnish or a delicate addition to salads, soups, and sauces. Their versatility doesn't end in the kitchen; they can also add refinement to infused oils and dressings. Elephant Garlic Flowers are cherished for their gentle hint of garlic essence, which offers a sophisticated touch to any dish without overpowering other flavors.
Nicolas Donck, a Belgium native, relocated to Georgia and started Crystal Organic Farm back in the mid-90's with a mission to grow healthy, organic produce. Many say he is singlehandedly responsible for introducing Atlantans to many plants of the endive and chicory varieties that were already popular in Belgium. Along the way, Nicolas helped found the Morningside Farmers Market and eventually met the love of his life, and now farm partner, Jeni Jarrard-Donck. Jeni brings an extensive knowledge of medicinal herb cultivation and usage to the partnership, making Crystal Organic one of the most well-rounded and diverse farms in the State.
