Everything about Asparagus Festival parade was green from the clothes to the hats to the face paint all the way to the parade’s commitment to the environment. No cars or trucks or lawn mowers or greenhouse gas emitting anythings were allowed. Other than that, as long as you celebrated the stalk, you could join the fray.
Parade was so compact that it circled the block two times to give the festival attendees another look at the human-sized asparagus leading the charge, the asparagus queen, the rowdy green kazoo band and more.
