Do you remember the snow one week ago? What a difference a week makes. We're so delighted to finally have a stretch of beautiful, warm weather. The crops are all growing quickly now and we're busy planting and harvesting every day to catch up after a slow start to spring. We're so excited that the asparagus is finally popping. This crop is only around for a few weeks in the spring, so we hope you enjoy it while it lasts. Check out this piece in New York Times Cooking on "How to Cook Asparagus" for some great tips and tricks. Enjoy!
