One of our own asparagus growers -- Mary Sheppard -- was selected as one of 40 emerging agricultural leaders from across the United States for the Fruit + Vegetable 40 under 40 awards. You'll recall that Mary was part of our video series earlier this year the "Asparagus Nitty Gritty." Congratulations Mary.
