Transplanting Asparagus

So, we have to move our asparagus bed.  So glad it isn't any larger than what it is.  On Saturday November 7, Doug used Emily's walk behind tractor to dig the trenches for the asparagus.  ​
He got about 15 feet of asparagus transplanted that weekend.

On Saturday November 14, a group of people gathered to transplanting the asparagus bed.  We had 2 1/2  20 foot rows to transplant.

Many hands made the work go faster.  Some were digging the plants.  Some were carrying them to the new plot.  Some were planting.  Some were covering

Tom and I dismantled the marsh hay bale for mulch.  Melissa mulched plants while David kept planting.

 Nancy found a straggler so Doug helped plant it.  After we finished we took some time to visit while social distancing.  

Community gardening is a great way to meet new friends, learn new skills, grow fresh food for your family, get some exercise, enjoy nature, share recipes.  We will be accepting registrations for 2021 through the winter with publicity starting again in mid to late February.   We will also be at the Spring Green Farmer's Market with registration forms next spring.  If you have questions, contact us info@rvacg.org
