After a successful seedling sale, we know all y’all are about to have an abundance of produce. We wanted to join the #QuarantineRecipe bandwagon and offer up a series of recipes you can make using your Benevolence Farm grown produce. Our communications volunteer Brittany is offering up a Southern classic using the thyme she purchased from our farm.
Do you have a recipe you want to submit? Send us an e-mail at info@benevolencefarm.org with the subject line “Recipes for Change”. Don’t forget to mention which ingredient comes from Benevolence Farm and please include pictures if you have them! We love pictures.
Here’s Brittany’s recipe. Enjoy!
