Yes. You can freeze it. Snap the bottom off first. Blanch and then put in ice bath to prevent overcooking. I put on a cookie sheet and freeze then later bag it up. That was they will not freeze in a clump.

You can definitely freeze asparagus. Just make sure you blanch it first. Also take care with the shape you freeze the stalk in!
