Asparagus Supporters
We are so grateful to those named here who have contributed financially to help Asparagus grow.
--
Asparagus Magazine would not exist without our community of readers and donors. Our first print issue was funded by a crowdfunding campaign (see below for details). We continue to receive support from a growing number of one-time and monthly donors who recognize that — like many well-loved independent publishers— Asparagus needs ongoing financial support from readers to keep our high-quality storytelling accessible to everyone. (You can join them by becoming a donor via our online shop.)

We have been the grateful recipients of large-scale reader support through two crowdfunding campaigns. You can read details of 2021’s Fund our Future campaign on the campaign page. And details of our initial 2018 crowdfunding campaign are below!
In the summer of 2018, 203 supporters helped Asparagus grow. With contributions ranging from $10-$500, together they provided almost $17,000 to be used in putting out the magazine’s first print issue. We will be forever grateful to:
