Awards: Yummy Artisan Food award for great taste. Our Notes: The Strawberry Basil Organic is a terrific pairing of strawberries at their peak of sweet ripeness with green mint flavor of basil. Basil is very subtle and balances out the sweetness of the strawberries. Cooked at a low heat to preserve the wonderful flavor of fresh summer strawberries. A wonderful jam to have all the way through the winter, and spring as we are waiting for the new crop of strawberries to show up. Producer’s Notes: Sweet local fruit slowly simmered and cooked down with basil grown here on our organic farm. We’ve paired these two flavors together to capture the most efficient of the pairing. About the Producer: Timothy Young co-founded “Food For Thought” 20 years ago with a commitment to “create and raise awareness around just and sustainable food” I met him and his daughter at latest “Good Food Awards” where he was once winning his second straight award for creating a delicious preserve. A small, certified organic production facility, Food For Thought is located in northern Michigan in the heart of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Their building was once carefully built with concern for the planet, the usage of green and recycled materials. That same care and concern is put into their products, which are small batch, circle of relatives farmed, use intentional ingredients and are finished with an excessive amount of love and commitment. Timothy is passionate about the foods he makes and believes it starts with the source of the ingredients. He has tight relationship with his farmers, purchases only fair trade organic sugar, and all ingredients are organic, non-GMO, and fair trade. Food For Thought is a superb example of a food maker who in my view knows the sources of his ingredients and is passionate about making he best foods imaginable.
