German asparagus sees early harvest thanks to sunny weather

Heavy sunshine has blessed German asparagus growers this year with an early season. Peter Lipp is one such German farmer, now harvesting, who tells of his hopes for the season.

“On March 13 we found the first asparagus but it was only one so it wasn’t really worth it. But now, thanks to the intense sunshine there is a lot of high quality asparagus. If the season continues the way it has started I expect a very good season. But whether that will be the case you can only know when it’s over.”

Germans favor the white kind of asparagus. It grows deeper in the soil than the green kind. During the asparagus harvest season, people sell fresh asparagus from temporary stalls, and restaurants offer many asparagus-based dishes.
