ASPARAGUS

With each quarterly print Edible Jersey keeps getting better and better! Pick up a free copy, or check out the digital edition online.

The current spring issue features a write up about Asparagus by our very own farmer, Johann Rinkens. Food tastes best when fresh and local, so look for asparagus, (and shallots and anise hyssop, see recipe) on the Fields Without Fences Culinary Availability List this season.

For the recipe, we went straight to our favorite renegade chef, Mr. David Ercolano. He is one of the few people in this world that has worked with every rare species and variety of everything we grow here. We can never seem to stump this guy - he is off the charts in taste, creativity, and know-how. Looking forward to testing this recipe out!

Fields Without Fences

Plant Medicine for People & Planet

On our farm, located within Delaware River Watershed, we cultivate fruits, nuts, medicinal herbs, and wild edibles within naturalized plantings that mimic the wild ecology. Through site specific design, we integrate approaches found in environmental restoration, permaculture design, and regenerative agriculture to create low input, self-renewing, agroecological systems that naturally restore health and integrity to our shared landscape.

Beyond our fields we bring these practices to our consulting and design work with farmers, landowners, and organizations. Inspired by a philosophy that recognizes all elements are integral to an interconnected planet, we approach landscapes as interdependent ecosystems, out of which the well being of all is reflected in the health and functionality of the whole. We bring this mindful holistic approach to everything we do, from the products we craft, to the programs and services we offer.
