Nearing the end of Asparagus season







Weeds even grow in a drought. This is a picture of our asparagus field on the 2nd of July. Notice all the weeds. We don't spray anything on the asparagus to kill the weeds so this is the result. The major weed is red root pigweed. Our Mexican help like to eat this weed in salads or cook it up for a dish something like cooked spinach.
Tomorrow is the last day of picking for 2009. We will then totally work the field to kill all the weeds.
