RAMPS - Sustainable Trailside Veggie

[zelph]

Now is the time you can use a small sachet/packet of olive oil to make an afternoon salad.

Pick a few Ramps and some dandelions and enjoy.
Ramps (Allium tricoccum) are also called wild leeks and are in the same family as onions and garlic (Allium). They have a strong onion flavor and can be used just like you would use onions or garlic. They grow wild in the eastern United States and Canada.
Please note: Ramps require special harvesting practices as they are becoming threatened in many areas. Ramps should be cut leaving the bulb in the ground to regrow.
