First Harvest by Mark Smith

May 19th means asparagus in Leelanau!

First Harvest by Mark Smith

Mark shared this delicious looking basket yesterday, writing “Our asparagus is the best! Now, if I could only find some morels to go with them.”

Indeed!! Also, in a coincidence that’s probably most interesting to me, I shared a one of Mark’s asparagus pictures that was also taken on May 19th way back in 2017 to promote the Empire Asparagus Festival (will be Saturday, June 6 2026)!

Follow Mark on Facebook for his latest (or to share secret morel spots) & for sure check out his work at Leelanau Landscapes Photography.
