Frost on the Asparagus

I know that the asparagus came up early this year because of the warm weather, but the frost that we keep having is definitively having an impact on harvest.  We've been taking orders and have one for the weekend, but if we get frost again, we won't be able to fill it on time.  At around 4AM this morning it hit 32F, and that will turn any spears of asparagus into a rubber textured veg.  Good enough for our table, but not for our customers.  We're hoping for some sun and warm weather to get more up.
