Asparagus this week We are now picking our asparagus field daily, but the weather has not been very warm so our supply this week will be limited again so come early to be sure and get some.
The asparagus that we grow in our cool climate has an amazing intense flavor and is very sweet, but te season is very short, we will only be picking until the end of June or so. |
Edmonton Farmer’s Markets we will be at
We will be at The Old Strathcona Farmer’s Market and the City Market on 104 th. St. this Saturday, May 26 with a small amount of our delicious sweet and tender asparagus. Please come early to be sure and get some as our supply is limited once again due to cold rainy weather.

 Who we are:
Edgar Farms is a 6th generation family farm in central Alberta. Back in 1986, inspiration to start diversifying into the locally-grown, consumer-direct market first came from tasting the intenseness of the flavor of asparagus grown in our family garden and the desire to market direct to consumers. No one else was growing asparagus in our weather-challenged climate so we gave it a try. We now harvest a 21 acre patch of asparagus every spring which, due to our unique cool Alberta spring nights and optimum soil conditions, has incredible sweetness and amazing flavor. |
