Roselle Greens are the distinctive, vibrant foliage of the Roselle plant. With their rich, cranberry-like flavor tinged with a lemony tartness, these deep green leaves with reddish veins and stems are a culinary delight. Their tender yet robust texture allows them to be a versatile ingredient in the kitchen—ideal for stirring into curries, sautéing with garlic and oil, or adding a piquant note to fresh salads. Often found in African, Caribbean, and Asian cuisines, Roselle Greens are a delightful addition to a range of dishes, enhancing flavors with their unique, tangy twist.
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.
