October 2013 What’s New on the Farm! The Latest and Greatest by Fresh Origins Who Are the First and Last Word in Microgreens. Fresh Harvest !!!

Featured Item:
Petite Pumpkin Green

Normally too bitter to eat, our Petite Pumpkin Greens have a delicious, fresh squash flavor. They are grown from pumpkin seeds. Their vibrant green color will brighten fall plates & traditional holiday fare. Get creative with the first ever Pumpkin seedling garnish! Float on creamy squash soup, pumpkin ravioli & lasagna. Even pumpkin desserts enjoy this unique green’s company!

Introducing our newest Crystal Flavor: Hibiscus
These boast a brilliant, rich burgundy color and have a wonderful sweet/sour taste with a fruity cranberry-grape-lemony flavor. They are a perfect combination of sweet/tart, and these crystals are an ideal flavor 
accent for a variety of dishes. Add a tangy spark to desserts: innovative topping for lemon sorbet, mousse, soufflets, & chocolate ganache. Hibiscus Crystals® are a natural addition to exotic cocktails. 
They are also a great sweetener for tea! The tart fruity flavor pairs well with seafood; sprinkle on smoked salmon, specialty ceviches, and even raw oysters. Create a tropical themed entree, dessert or drink with this wonderful crystal.
Flower Crystals® Hibiscus for plating, & Mini Flower Crystals® Hibiscus for glass rimming.
