🌱 Asparagus cultivation on the Wißbrock farm
Harvesting asparagus is a real handcraft – and we do it every day with great experience and care. Our white and green asparagus grows directly in the fields surrounding our farm in Versmold-Bockhorst.
Through targeted cultivation, modern care technology and regular quality controls, we offer you fresh asparagus of the best farm quality - from the first picking in April to St. John's Day in June .
We harvest fresh daily, carefully sort by hand, and sell directly from the farm or at our market stalls. The taste: delicate, aromatic, and regional.
Asparagus cultivation – white & green
On our farm we grow both white and green asparagus – two varieties, one family, but with different characteristics:
White asparagus grows underground and is picked as soon as it breaks through the soil. It is considered particularly tender and aromatic—a true spring vegetable.
Green asparagus grows above ground and develops its characteristic color through exposure to sunlight. It contains higher levels of vitamins C, E, K , and beta-carotene , and is low in calories and light.
Both varieties come from special cultivations and are cultivated by hand. Harvesting begins in mid-April, depending on the weather, and traditionally ends on June 24th .
Whether cooked in a classic way or combined in a modern way – white and green asparagus from Hof Wissbrock simply tastes best fresh.
