Gav836 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Are you sure thats celery Erik as it looks more like parsley to me? Nice pictures though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ertlerik Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 I talked to the driver off the Ploeger, he told me this is the first year they harvest celery like this, it goes to a company that drys it, so it is not for the fresh market. They can harvest this field 3 or 4 times depending on the weather. Erik. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gav836 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Thanks for that Erik, we all think of celery as the salad stem crop whereas there is also the celery leaf which is a type of spice when dried which is not seen here very often Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are wrong, all spinach harvesters by Ploeger start with MK, Bean harvesters start with BP, Pea harvesters EPD,and potato harvesters with AR. http://www.ploeger.com/ Erik.
