Organically Grown Asparagus, Strawberries and Raspberries
Asparagus
Our organically-grown aspargaus is the Jersy Giant variety. This variety produces a large spear with a delicate taste. Our aspargaus harvest begins in mid-April and lasts about three weeks. Currently we have thirty-four rows of asparagus each about 100 yards long. In 2007 we planted 12,000 asparagus roots. The aspargaus beds take about five years to fully mature.
