Default asparagus crowns for sale

I will have at least 1500 2 year old Jersey Knight hybrid asparagus
crowns for sale this spring. The seeds were obtained from a reputable
dealer (Jersey Asparagus Farms).

The spacing of the seeds were 3" apart in rows 12" apart. No chemicals
were used on the ground or the plants. No chemicals were used on the
soil for at least 5 years prior to the planting of the seeds. I had
prepared the soil several years in advance using what I cleaned out of
my chicken coop for compost. The weeds were removed by hand. I live in
Northern Missouri, USA.

I was hoping to start my own asparagus production to sell to the local
markets, but due to circumstances I will not be able to that. Instead,
I plan to thin the asparagus, and leave me with a manageable patch for
my own family.

Anyone who is interested can contact me at .

Sincerely,
Rick Hurd.
