Memories are made of this - The Last Asparagus of the Season

by Karen Burns-Booth
One benefit of the rather late spring and summer is that some seasonal fruit and vegetables are still with us in mid-June. Karen shares her love of late asparagus along with a delicious recipe for Chargrilled Asparagus & Spring Onions with Chive Flowers.

It's May and that means asparagus season.  The wet weather this spring has put somewhat of a dampener on the crop of asparagus this year.  The annual asparagus festival was cancelled as a result.  Asparagus growing takes much careful planning & tending of the young plants.  Allotment owner and keen gardener & blogger Food Urchin aka Danny Kingston had a word with one of the older gardeners at his allotment for some words of wisdom  He also also makes one of the delicious recipes from our asparagus collection.
