British-grown Asparagus will be reaching selected Sainsbury’s stores from today.
These first British asparagus tips, grown by Lichfield-based New Farm Produce Ltd, have been harvested by hand and will be delivered to selected stores in time for customers to enjoy this weekend. Sainsbury’s asparagus is expected to be 100% British by the end of April.
Sainsbury’s British Asparagus Tips 100g are £1.75 and will be available from selected stores. Asparagus is an ideal vegetable accompaniment for Spring meals and is delicious served simply with either homemade or pre-bought Hollandaise sauce.
