Lemon Thyme is a fragrant and versatile herb with delicate, small green leaves and a profusion of tiny, pale purple flowers. Its bright, citrusy aroma and flavor profile effortlessly fuse the earthiness of traditional thyme with the zesty notes of lemon, creating a unique culinary ingredient. Lemon Thyme adds a refreshing twist to dishes such as roasted poultry, grilled vegetables, and infused vinegars, as well as complementing fish and seafood. Popular in Mediterranean cuisine, it can also enhance the taste of soups, stews, and marinades. Moreover, it is cherished as a delightful addition to herbal teas, offering potential benefits for digestion and relaxation.
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.
