At Spears-R-Us, we believe sustainable farming goes hand in hand with producing the highest quality asparagus. Our organic certification ensures chemical-free growing, while our GAP (Good Agricultural Practices) certification guarantees food safety from field to table. Every decision we make considers the long-term health of our land.
Read MoreAs winter thaws and Wisconsin temperatures rise, our farm awakens with renewed energy. Spring marks the beginning of asparagus season – the most magical time of year for our family. After months of preparation, dormancy, and patient waiting, we finally see those first green spears emerge from the earth, signaling the start of another harvest season.
Clearing fields, preparing beds, and getting ready for the growing season ahead.
First spears break through the soil – the most exciting moment of the year!
Daily hand-picking ensures peak freshness through the entire season.
In an age of mechanization, we remain committed to the art of hand-picking. Every morning during harvest season, our dedicated team walks the rows selecting only spears at perfect maturity. This careful attention ensures you receive asparagus that is tender from tip to base – no woody stems, no wasted portions, just pure, delicious quality.
Receiving the Golden Harvest Award was a moment of profound pride for our family. This recognition celebrates not just the quality of our produce, but the dedication, perseverance, and love that goes into every acre of our farm. It's validation of the hands-on approach that sets Spears-R-Us apart – and a reminder of why we do what we do.
There's nothing quite like fresh Wisconsin asparagus, and we're here to help you make the most of it. Here are our family's favorite tips for preparing asparagus to perfection.
The natural breaking point is where the tender part ends. Simply bend and snap!
4-6 minutes for crisp-tender. Overcooked asparagus becomes mushy and loses nutrients.
Stand trimmed spears in an inch of water like flowers for fresh storage.
Blanch briefly, then freeze to enjoy Wisconsin asparagus year-round.
We don't just farm for today – we farm for future generations. Our sustainable practices include crop rotation, natural pest management, water conservation, and soil health monitoring. We've invested over 20 years continuously replanting and improving our fields, ensuring the land remains productive for the 6th generation and beyond.
