Regenerative Grown Asparagus
Now that we have grown fresh asparagus for over 10 years in SW Montana we get one question that people keep asking:
Why is your fresh asparagus so good?
The short answer to that question is that we grow everything at Covenant Gardens using regenerative agriculture practices that avoids any use of synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides.
Our focus is on vibrant soil health, bio-diversity and sustainability. The amazing taste of our fresh asparagus is simply a byproduct of our regenerative agriculture principles that we incorporate into our farm. Indeed, you can taste the difference in everything we grow because we pursue soil health and biological wholeness as our top priority.

These plants will be ready to plant in your own garden to create an asparagus patch. Let them grow 2 full seasons to establish. A light cutting can be taken on the 3rd year and full harvest each year with full maturity.
After the Purple Passion asparagus has been successfully established, it will provide you a crop of fresh asparagus every spring for many years with basic care.
