Default Best vegetable for a beginner to grow?

You might want to consider asparagus. You have to follow the planting
instructions carefully. But once you do, there is little maintainence
beyond trying to keep the weeds out and fertilizing a couple of times a
year. It is great because it keeps coming year after year, is easy to
harvest, tastes great and is expensive to buy at the store (so you
actually save money).


We love asparagus! Do I have to take any precautions against animals?
When is the best time to plant them? Thanks for the suggestion.
