The family farm next door to my neighborhood has some for sale. I stopped there and got 2 bunches for my daughter and her family and a bunch for me. Oh my, so good!

(16,949 posts)The land used to be a state tree farm and the family bought it about 10 years ago. They have another farm, on the other side of town, which has been farmed by their family for over 100 years. State of Ohio honored the farm as a centennial family farm in the last couple of years.
They sell strawberries, blueberries, pumpkins, gourds and now asparagus. I would love to see them offer more veggies.
This is the first year I got asparagus from them, usually get it from the store. Such a treat!

He passed away in 2017, and sometimes I make meals like this, all for me!
