This is the dawning of the Age of Asparagus, Age of Asparagus, Aasspaaarrrraaaggguuusss!
Last year some of you may remember that we had a horrible year for Strawberries and literally might have had them once for everyone if we were lucky.
This year, both the asparagus and the strawberries continue to flow in so we keep buying them knowing how sacred they are, and how short-lived they are.
Another product we are starting to see trickle in is those wonderful curly green garlic scapes. These are another one of those “chef’s dreams”.
Each garlic plant, each year, put off 1 and only 1 scape...it’s the equivalent of it’s “flower”. When cut, it offers such a neat little treat that can be used to make pesto, can be cut up and sauteed, or just roasted/grilled and eaten whole with oil, salt, and pepper.
Continuing to see more soil grown slicer tomatoes, cucumbers, cooking greens, and lettuce. Out on the horizon we have rhubarb and blueberries...stay tuned!!
