Project for this weekend...

.


Planning, making, assembling, filling, and planting asparagus. (da beans were thrown in the pic cuz they looked purty)

I love asparagus. Got mine at the Landreth Seed Company.  They are the oldest purveyors of fine seeds and flowers in the U.S. of A.  David Landreth started 1784 and counted George Washington and Thomas Jefferson among their customers.  The 2012 catalog is full of beautiful art work from earlier editions and many are suitable for framing.  And they are local, just an hour down 83 in New Freedom.  They are having a plant sale May 19/20 of heritage tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, cukes, and lots of flowers that local greenhouses grew from their seed. Next weekend (5/5 and 5/6) they are going to be at several flower and plant shows in and around Baltimore.

I'm going...  but not sure when and which one.
