Please read carefully below for our picking guidelines...
Please ensure you do not walk across the raised beds on the asparagus crowns while you are picking - children must be closely supervised in the field by their parents.
Asparagus spears must be at least 8 inches in length before they can be cut (a short white area should be just visible at the base) shorter spears are not ready and should be left to grow.
All asparagus must be cut at ground level (pictured) taking care not to injure the other buds on the crown.
Cutting asparagus too high or snapping off only the tips damages the plant and you will be charged a higher price. Unlike other crops, cutting asparagus requires a sharp knife. We have a limited amount available and strongly advise customers to bring their own.
For Health and Safety reasons we are unable to provide cutting knives to children.
