Two raised beds on a slope. We planted 14 asparagus crowns,👑and they are already sprouting!😎Beds are 8’ x2’. The original plan was to make one 16 x 2 bed but we figured it would be too heavy to carry. We put wire mesh on the bottom because we have a big gopher 🦦population. Just added drip 💧irrigation yesterday, it’s looking good. 😎 . . #raisedbedsgarden #raisedbedsofinstagram #asparagus https://www.instagram.com/p/B_vdrhHAQeP/?igshid=u2tm8i11k5c4
