The sunshine state gets most the credit for the abundance of winter citrus we squeeze into our tea or enjoy in a glass with our breakfast. But this winter, just a short drive away, Hill and Hollow farm is practically bursting with Meyer lemons. Certified organic, the lemons are the product of Robin and Paul of Hill and Hollow Farm in Edmonton, KY. We discovered them while visiting for a story back in November. According to Robin Verson, they planted the tree as a lark in their new greenhouse. And lo and behold the tree is prolific as can be. If you were lucky enough to be at the CSA Fair at the Nashville Farmers' Market this poast weekend, you might have snagged some. If so, here are 5 of our favorite lemon recipes for a burst of bright sunshine in February.
