I was able to get my garden in before Memorial Day. A friend brought me some fresh asparagus and I got to thinking that asparagus would be a nice addition to my garden. I asked if they knew where I could buy some. I couldn't recall seeing it anywhere to buy. They told me to come over and dig some up. I couldn't find my shovel so I headed out with a trowel, garden gloves and a prayer that if needed they'd let me borrow a shovel.
Let me tell you, aparagus is some tough stuff with HUGE root systems that are pretty thick and deep. I won the battle, but it was a fight!!! Asparagus is a worthy opponent. I had sweat dripping off my forhead and I honestly can't tell you the last time that happened up here! I got is home and got it planted in a nice sunny spot. Can't wait to pick some next spring!
