Suppliers of premium quality green, purple & white asparagus.
We are a family business growing approximately 2 hectares of asparagus in Greenpark, near the townships of Tai Tapu and Lincoln approximately 25 minutes from Christchurch.
Our asparagus are premium cultivars. The green is the very tasty Pacific 2000 cultivar, marketed as Pacific Crown. The purple is the super sweet Pacific Purple cultivar.
Our specialty product is white asparagus. This is comes from growing the green and purple cultivars in total darkness. The result is a less fibrous, but very sweet tasting, crunchier, treat. Unlike the white asparagus grown underground overseas, ours is grown in the air, and therefore does not need peeling. We won't be producing any white asparagus in 2019.
For 2019 we have covered some asparagus to produce some super early treats! We are now under way with our chilli-bin at the end of our road most days as long as we haven't sold out.
Our main season (depending on the weather & soil temperatures) runs from approximately the 1st week of October until Christmas.
