Rhubarb

I haven't seen ANY for sale here and it should be in season by now.
Asking to see how widespread a shortage this is.
I read something that said it was connected to an asparagus shortage, but there is plenty of asparagus here in SW Ohio.
Can you get it in your area right now?

No asparagus shortage here in SC PA, it's a bit early for rhubarb here.

I know local is later, but the usual vendors say they can't find it. Some of the farmers drive trucks down south to do pickups and nothing yet.

My mom's just started to come up in her garden... looking forward to Rhubarb here in Nebraska, too!

I live in Northeast Ohio, and my sister's rhubarb is in large leaf. Don't know about the stores.
