Asparagus Available


After a late spring, the asparagus has arrived! Don't wait - it is always a short season and a long wait to the next!

Asparagus is a health food that eliminates uric and oxalic acid from the body. It can be viewed as a spring cleaning and tonifying food. It contains high amount of vitamins A, B complex and C plus minerals like potassium and zinc.

Asparagus is great grilled, lightly steamed, raw, blanched and added to green and pasta, and potato salads. I often steam and top with homemade mayonnaise.

And for folks who don't eat dairy, make cream of asparagus soup with some oatmeal - its creamy texture will be sure to please!

Call or email us now to rerve some to eat fresh or freeze for winter!
