Depends on where you live. Ruth in in North Carolina (Zone 2) and you
are in Zone 7 in Southern Ontario.
We see blueberries adverted by the U-picks and farm stands around mid
June. Now they're hustling asparagus and rhubarb.

Here's a nice asparaguse soup recipe from a Quebecios lady who was on
the echo when I first joined back in the 90s. It's really pretty good.
1 1/2 lb Asparagus; cut up
2 1/2 c Cream
5 lg Eggs, well beaten
2 tb Butter
2 sl Bacon *
2 c Water
2 tb Fresh parsley; fine chopped
Salt & pepper
In a deep saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the
bacon; cover and boil for 15 minutes. Discard the bacon.
Add the asparagus; cover and simmer over medium-low heat
until tender.
In a mixing bowl, blend the eggs and cream. Stir this
mix into the asparagus, adding the spices and butter.
Simmer for 2 min over low heat, stirring continuously.
Remove from the heat and serve.
* if you'd like you can substitute a teasoppon or so of
bacon dripping and not have to sacrifice two slices of
my favourite vegetables. Bv)=
