I want to grow asparagus and know that it needs two years before it produces anything edible but want to know what steps I can take to prevent it from dying in the winter or from bugs?

I think that's a good question to ask, and my understanding is that growing asparagus is hard.  It's a plant that thrives in full sun, and needs to be harvested carefully or the shoot will break and not produce asparagus.  I could try to Google how to grow asparagus indoors, but maybe you should instead consult with an expert on this?

Could you find any more tips for me?

There's an extensive list of home growing tips from Mother Earth News.  They also have information on organic practices that is more current than the 1997 article referenced there.
