The best and easiest way to grow Asparagus is to buy crowns from almost anywhere, even Walmart. The crowns are already 1 - 2 years old, and if you are careful, you may harvest a few spears the very next year.
The time to plant the crowns is now.

Asparagus has turned out to be one of the easiest, low-maintenance, pest free crops we grow.
We are currently in the middle of our yearly Asparagus orgy. We've been harvesting and eating Asparagus daily for about 3 weeks, and have another few weeks to go.





It just seems so WRONG..... Harvesting Asparagus.
