Jason and I grew up in St. Louis in the suburbs. Jason is an engineer and I work in agriculture. Both of us feel a strong tie to nature and feel that it is important to raise our children with a sense of the natural world around them outside of the mowed suburbs.
In April of 2010 we jumped in with both feet and bought a 14 ac farm in the middle of St. Peters/O'Fallon. We will learn thru our experiences "on the farm" and hope to create wonderful memories as we go...
Dug 40 feet of trenches this evening and planted 20 asparagus crowns (plants). They won't make asparagus this year, but they are 2 year old crowns and should be ready for asparagus in the spring. Yummy!
