Diedersdorfer Spargel weiß, Kl.1 / 18-24mm, Bund

Fresh asparagus from the Diedersdorf asparagus farm

White asparagus, often also called white gold, is THE vegetable of the Germans. There are more myths and anecdotes about no other vegetable than about asparagus. There are over 200 different varieties in total, but only a few are edible. It has been known for thousands of years and was considered a delicacy in ancient times. But white asparagus was only discovered by chance in the 19th century. Asparagus sprouts were covered to protect them from animals. Due to the resulting lack of light, the asparagus did not form chlorophyll and remained white. The much more delicate and finer-tasting white asparagus quickly found many fans, so that almost only white asparagus is grown in Germany.

Spargelgut Diedersdorf

Sustainability, field-fresh regional premium products and short transport routes are the hallmark of the Hoffmann family's asparagus farm. The Spargelgut Diedersdorf is a family business that is run with heart and passion by Jürgen Hoffmann and his son Marc across generations. The farm has been located in Diedersdorf since 1996 and specializes in the cultivation and sale of asparagus, strawberries, potatoes and Christmas trees. Located in the charming rural surroundings of the Fläming, between the municipalities of Großbeeren and Blankenfelde-Mahlow, the Spargelgut Diedersdorf creates an oasis of well-being for the whole family and invites you to taste its own regional premium asparagus in the farm's own restaurant and farm shop.

From the farm you can see the family's extensive fields and watch the fruit and vegetables grow and be harvested. Even their own bumblebees are used to pollinate the strawberries.
