At the core of Cress's culinary philosophy lies the premise that by starting with the freshest and highest quality ingredients, a well-trained chef is able to meld flavours in amazing ways that might otherwise be impossible. In keeping with this philosophy, Cress Restaurant draws much of its produce from its own organic garden (the Cress Garden) in DeLand on the site of Planted Earth Vegetables ® where local farmer and amazing gardener Nize Nylen is able to grow incredibly flavourful and exotic vegetables, fruits, and herbs specifically for Cress.
