Asparagus, Vermont's fancy vegetable! Harvested in spring and early summer, this perennial (lives for 12 or more growing seasons) requires little more than fertile, loose, well-drained soil to plant its roots, and a good 8 hours of full sunlight each day. Grilling is a great way to enhance the delicate, bittersweet, grassy flavor of asparagus by caramelizing the natural sugar with a smoky char. Check out our quick recipe for Grilled Asparagus.
