aw - good luck! You are starting a new adventure...

I would miss 1000 crowns of asparagus also!

1000 CROWNS? HOLY ASPARAGUS!

I was jumpin up and down cause in Spring I will have 32 crowns, geez. How much asparagus do you get out of 1000 crowns?

Susan, we average about 600# in 8 weeks. We use around 60# and sell the rest. Tom

There you have a skillful gardener supplementing income and paying for garden costs. And, I probably could say something about enjoying a weekend farmers' market if that's the marketing choice.

Will we need to call you the non-Skagit_goat_man from here on out?

My limited experience with moving from one garden to another was that I had problems understanding the soil. Some soils are good for some crops, some for others. Some soil packs and dries out like a brick . . .

I hope, sir, that you can gain some insight from your new neighbors. And, here's wishing you the very best of success.

You say you're keeping the old place... Can you get by there to harvest the asparagus in the spring? The thought of all that asparagus going unharvested is enough to make me cringe! Or is someone else going to be making good use of your old garden?

Goodness Gosh Almighty! 1000 crowns? I thought my dinky little patch was enough....guess I need way more.

Flip,
that was my thought exactly, for that volume of produce, I'd probably consider flying there to tend to it :) and if it's just a drive across town...all the more reason to keep it going and spend a few $$ in gas...probably cheaper than starting it all over elsewhere...and doesn't it take a few years for it to mature? you might go through withdrawal waiting!!!
