- We are going wild asparagus hunting today! It is a delicious, and super nutritious snack, that if you hunt it, is all that more gratifying. Try finding some today! Look in ditches and in well-draining sandy locations for best results.

My father introduced asparagus to us when no one knew about this plant in Punjab, India. He would generally collect it same way you did. We used to saute it with peas and eat with chapati. It was favorite food. I guess I need to go back to village again to treasure hunt. Thanks for this video.
Hey Robin, have you found them?
This reminds me so much of when I was a kid... my dad would drive us out in the country, and we'd go really slowly, looking for asparagus along the roadsides. When he finally decided it was time to go home, he'd speed up, but we kids didn't want to give up, so we'd about go cross-eyed trying to watch for it a 55 mph. :-) Now, it's a saying between us when we can't give up looking for something. We say, "it's like looking for asparagus!"
Super helpful! We just found wild asparagus in our backyard and I had no idea how to harvest as well as make sure it continues to come back year after year. This was great. Thanks!
My husband brought some home today! Was such a nice surprise.
Hello fellow forager. We are about as far apart as people can get in this country but we obviously share the same interests.Here in Texas we wade in feral asparagus and feral garlic every spring. Feral pomegranate bushes and banana plants, also. There is also a very thriving population of feral shiso and epazote. Yum. Free food everywhere! Don't even get me started on the wild dewberries...I am watching out for the flowers so I know where the best patches are and can return to them for harvest time. Happy harvesting!
This was really interesting! Thank you for this! I now knew w to keep my eyes open! I have never seen how asparagus grows, so this is great information to have. Bless you, and have a wonderful day!
Thank u for sharing this - I love wildcrafting and asparagus 💚
That is awesome! I love the idea of foraging wild edibles.
Thanks Luke, I have seen folks foraging every spring by the expressways here, but didn't have a clue what they were up to, NOW, I know too!lol
Thanks for sharing. I need to go hunting soon.
Great information. Especially describing the old dried stocks I think I remember seeing that in Louisiana along ditched area.
Wow I had no idea what to look for ! You helped me so much ! Thank you 🎉 ♥️
You're a good dude man. This is very informative and also does a good job at painting the moral contrasts that come with deciding what to harvest and what to not harvest. You've got the right idea. Don't get too greedy and everyone gets a great harvest! Promote the species uber alles.
I love wild asparagus! Got to hunt and eat some this year. Ours were the ditch kind. Thanks thought for the tips on how to spot where they might be, for the next season.
Wow that was like going on a treasure hunt.
i lived in Powell Wyoming and the asparagus grew all over the irrigation ditches in that area ... never thought about pesticides, but it was quite tasty and oh makes you urine so so green
That was fun. Luke. Love foraging.
me and my daughter picked some wild asparagus when she was younger it was very good!
Cant wait for my crop to mature!!
Excellent video showing people how to find & harvest asparagus. I need to seek out good places near me.
I showed this video to my husband, and now I;m excited to go into the woods on our property, and try to find some asparagus! Who cares if it's technically wild or not. If I, or someone else didn't plant or cultivate it, that's wild to me. How awesome that you have a beach in your own back yard too. I would be down there every morning, with coffee in hand, taking a daily walk. Keep up the great videos Luke and Sindy!
That beach is beautiful, great video. I had no idea that asparagus could be found at the beach :-)
I have an older neighbor that tells of harvesting asparagus along the irrigation ditches in west Texas. Arizona area. He says they were planted long ago for erosion control
We picked about 15 pounds off the ditches here this year. So much better than store bought!!!
It really is so much better. Nothing beats it!
I miss living in indiana. so much wild asparagus. dozens of pounds. I wish I could find someone to mail me some roots, I live in Texas now and I highly doubt I'd be able to find wild asparagus here in south texas
@@ambersykora352somebody in the comments up above said they have lots of it in Texas. I don't know what part though. Read the comment. It's up above
What a lovely beach you have!
thanks for the tips!
Wow that is amazing!🌞👍🏼
Good stuff, Luke. You sort of mentioned leaving some by not being greedy, but I want to make it clear to others...leave some to go to seed to replenish the crop.
I thought I heard if you cut it all down it makes new shoots grow up?
thank for the reminder I haven't done it for the past few years but will today going past a place where I used to harvest will check it out yummy
Just learned something new, how awesome.
best tutorial I've seen so far, thank you.
Great video! Very helpful.
This is so cool! :D I love your channel! I wonder if we have wild asparagus here in Seattle. Time to do some googling,
Thank you so much! My family will be camping in Muskegon next week. I’m excited to take them foraging on the beach.
I'm guessing you learned that you'd need to go in the springtime to find any, but I'll bet you enjoyed the beauty and your time there!
Very interesting thank you!
If you live in an area where they commercially grow asparagus birds eat the seeds and translpant it in different locations. Barbwire or other fences where birds land to rest are great places to look especially in or along ditches.
你的视频非常精彩!感谢你的介绍,我最爱的户外运动就是挖野菜!
Great stuff cheers
Wow, seen this near ditches, & never gave it much thought!
Thanks for the helpful video! Now all I need to find is a good video on where to find wild morel mushrooms in my area right now. They grow in my region, but i cannot locate their growing areas...
Here is an idea... Look for the berries on the wild female asparagus. Save the seeds inside. Plant and grow your own wild variety. Just a thought. :)
Chana Moriel takes a while but apparently it worth it
Have you tried this?
thanks, i am more inlighten from your great work.
hey luke, like you i also live abouts in Michigan. i was wondering what other good stuff we have growing wild around here? and how to find it? id really appreciate it! love the videos, keep up the good work!
Awesome video!
This is the kind of hunting I enjoy. 😊
Great survival skill
Great Video!
cool,cool,cool love this
i eat already that and in my place many aparagus its so yummy....amazing.
cool idea
Learn something new everyday thanks
We go asparagus hunting every spring in the ditches up in port hope MI. Its soOooO delicious!
Great video ***** ! Alot of people don't realize that Apple orchards are loaded with asparagus. We have sooo much growing at the base and inbetween the trees its amazing. Now that it's up I'm eating it at least once a day. Please do morr videos on foraging for food. Thanks again!
Are the apple trees healthy?
@@denniskatinasI don't know about the trees, but th fruits are
Oh my! i never thought there is wild asparagus what a surprise when i tried to plant the asparagus seed i bought i waited for over a month til it started to grow and looks just like a kind of grass that normally grow everywhere during rainy season its really different from what i was expecting to be like so i searched and found out that the seed i got is a wild asparagus
awesome update
In Wisconsin in the fall it turns orange.Keep track of where you saw it,and come back the following year when they have grown enough to cut.
Wow ty I didn't know this.
Thank you for the tip ;-)
I've been eating asparagus for over a month now, including wild asparagus...you can make a lot of delicious dishes with them.
+mani in pasta video recipes We love asparagus!
Recently I made an asparagus lime salsa. It was delicious!
Wow. This looks like my area in Huron County.
Hi Was just talking to friend and he was gathering wild asparagus when I stopped thought maybe hed broken down then seen his asparagus in his hand ... we talked a bit he showed me some of the lis iOS looki g asparagus I've ever seen Wetted my appetite for finding some
Thank you,Fantastic!
Thanks for watching Ralph!
I live in NEBRASKA & not too many beaches in NE but the ditches always gets sprayed around here so not many wild asparagus around here the spray kills everything I remember going with my dad he always has buckets along for things like black berries / raspberries / wild plums / and yes asparagus they all grow in and around the ditches .
Cool!
Thank you for sharing Luke! Asparagus are one of my favorite vegetables! But where I live doesn’t have beaches but we have lakes, does asparagus grow by the lakes/ponds?
We saw some growing near a stream in Israel today.
Lmaooooooooo "you may oy may not want it. Depending on how greedy you are." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well I guess I won't be able to find any on Pensacola beach as it is hot hot hot and no shade. I grew up in Michigan and we had wild rhubarb. Great pies with strawberries.
Nice
Hi Luke, thanks for sharing!
I'm curious.. do you know if wild asparagus is just cultivated asparagus gone feral or is it its on plant?
Again thank you!
TheNorthwestForager it is definitely cultivated asparagus that seeds have been spread around by birds and whatnot.
@@MIgardener Any idea on the variety this is?
I love free food in the wild!
Yum Drenched in Organic Butter !!!
Wow
hmmm, sometimes I find some really poky wild artichokes, but not asparagus. Asparagus is so tasty, and to find it there, wow. Yeah, when the spears start to thin out too much it's best not to pick them. really cool to see the asparagus growing there at the beach!
***** hmmm wild artichokes sound delicious!
Great vidio
Great video and thank you but what part of the nation are you and what season are you in? It looks from what your wearing that it's summerish, am I right?
Nice, however cutting them is not the correct way in picking. you need to slowly bend the stalk till it snaps in half on its own. You will have a better tasting asparagus. Great finds thou
Is there any particular things to look for in a ditch that might be friendly to asparagus? I think I would have better luck finding some in a ditch.
Do you have to be careful collecting wild asparagus in ditches? I know with cattail you do because the filter the water and absorb toxins from the water and runoff.
@MIGardener
Probably only people from Michigan know what you meant by "we're not going to be up for another week or two." ;-) Evidently, "going up north" is a strange saying to those not blessed with living in Michigan. Thanks for the great tips and beautiful lake shore views!
Asparagus I find in Jersey is in full sun and stops growing around hedgrows where the shade is.
This is the first time I see asparagus being harvested, interesting..
I suspect I'm not likely to find wild asparagus in north Florida. :-(
Thanks for the good video!
What state are you in?? I'm in Maine and going to go out foraging tomorrow 😊
Luke do you think that someone might have planted some a long time ago . That wild Asparagus looks normal . Great video.
Patrick Meehan well as TheNorthwestForager asked, it is totally cultivated asparagus, however it was not planted here. the seeds just blew there, or were dropped by pooping birds, or deer.
Love the video, but you might want to explain the difference in where you live. I live in Maine. I would like to know if there is a difference . Ty :)
Do you have a video about growing fiddle heads?
what the heck you just found vegetables in a pile of grass 😧😂
Do they only grow along the coast?
What is the season? What zone?
Do you think, living in zone 4a,that I could find wild aspargus in my zone?
Anthony Bergeron
I live in zone 4 canada.
Been picking wild asparagus all my life here
Is that one of the great lakes.
Where you at lake huron?
Is that lake Michigan?
I wonder what state u r live in ? I like all ur videos, thank u for sharing ☺👌
Michigan
The state I live in do not want you getting food for free and have destroyed most of them in the ditches.
neal mchenry oh no 😑 that's so wrong
What states or regions is asparagus most prevalent?
Does wild Asparagus grow everywhere?
As a kid in southern Idaho, I didn't realize people bought asparagus at the store, we'd just go down the ditch across the street :) Right now we're trying to grow our own in a container garden but they're so tiny and thin....maybe they'll thicken up the 2nd year?
6 years later, how are they're doing now? It normally takes 3 to 4 years.
@@denniskatinas I've moved 7 times since then and gone through a ton, so I was never able to find out 😆
@@JJourney1 Haha its always funny to ask question to 6 year old comments :-P Well, I hope you are well, you could still give it a try you know.
this is lot like how you find the polk salad plants..
I found a huge amount of asparagus lately all found in ditches close to a country road. I am wondering if this is safe to eat since its only about 20 feet off the road along a farmers fence at the top edge of a ditch that is on the side of a country road that has a car drive by about every 30-60 seconds. Does this sounds safe to eat or can it have contaminates from cars passing by.
These days it's very easy to have soil tested. Personally, I would not worry about it, most of those contaminates go elsewhere, those who don't rain off and the soil transforms most of them. I don't think the Asperges takes those out of the soil also.
What about south west va
How about river banks?
😍😍😍😍
