Kale Florets, with their dark, leafy green curls, are a visually stunning and nutritionally dense addition to any meal. Each floret is packed with a rustic earthy flavor that carries a hint of nuttiness, characteristic of hearty greens. Their robust texture stands well to cooking and they can be sautéed, steamed, or stirred into stews, where they contribute both substance and vibrant color. When crisped up in the oven, they become delightfully crunchy, making for a wholesome snack or a garnish with a satisfying bite. Besides adding depth to culinary creations, Kale Florets are treasured for their high vitamin C and K content, as well as being a good source of calcium and iron, supporting overall health and well-being.
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.
