    Open for Asparagus and Rhubarb!

    Hello fellow farmers and eaters,

    Our asparagus and rhubarb decided to come out of hiding in a big way this week… The old winter to summer in 6 days or less trick!

    We currently have a lot of asparagus for sale and more and more rhubarb as the days go by. Both the asparagus and rhubarb are available pre-picked Wednesday through Sunday 9:30 am to 7:30 pm, or by appointment. The rhubarb is also available for u-pick (by appointment only). We expect to have them both for 4 weeks or more.

    The pricing is as follows:

    Pricing

    Asparagus

    $7.50 for 1 bunch (1 lb.) $30.00 for 5 bunches

    Rhubarb

    $3.50 u-pick
    $7 per bunch (about 1.6 lbs.)

    Please inquire about wholesale pricing for large orders. Yeah warm dry weather!

    Rhubarb for picking

    Our rhubarb is finally coming ready for picking. The cool weather we have had, slowed it down to a glacial pace…, however, it is finally shooting upward. We should have rhubarb from this Thursday, May 13 till the end of June. We love to eat it fresh and put some away for stewing and baking in the winter. It is especially good with the first strawberries, a celestial match if there ever was one!

     

    We are open for u-pick and pre-picked by appointment. We also wholesale (orders of 10 lbs. or more). Our price is $3/lb. for u-pick, $4/lb. for pre-picked and $2-3 for wholesale (depending on size of order, pickup or delivery, etc.)
    Please call ahead at (519) 665-7982
    (landline so no texts please), or email devanpenney@gmail.com.

    Asparagus and Rhubarb Emerging

    Here we go!

    Asparagus and rhubarb are two of the earliest food plants available for harvest and we look forward to both of them. Like many other early crops in this climate, they are both cold hearty perennials that have been cultivated by humans for thousands of years. Though the stems and leaves of both plants are sensitive to frost, the crowns remain safely protected in the soil and new shoots emerge and grow quickly.

     

    We have just doubled our asparagus planting to between ½ and 2/3 of an acre. It takes several years (and a lot of work!) to get established, so production will be fairly light over the next couple years. After that we should have lots, and plan on selling it at the farm and to wholesale customers. Please be in touch if you would like more information on wholesale opportunities ­­­>>>>
