We used to call it that as a joke but I heard someone call it “Asparagrass” and they seemed serious. Anyway, we got our first harvest this spring. It was yum.<\/p>\n

Not a huge harvest but I think we’re on our way. Probably won’t ever be enough to can\u00a0unless I grow more. That’s in the works but I’m not sure where I’ll put them…maybe in the old strawberry bed. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you read my previous posts, you know I\u00a0started more Asparagus from seeds that I harvested from my original planting. I repotted them into some giant pots that trees were probably originally potted in, and they’re doing good so far.<\/p>\n

I’m new at growing asparagus because I didn’t used to love it. \u00a0Now I do love it as long as it’s tender.<\/p>\n

The more I think about it, the ol’ strawberry bed might not be a bad\u00a0idea!<\/p>\n
