A ramp/ Wild leeks are the most delicious plant, kinda like an onion/leek/garlic flavor. Ours grow in an area that has a creek and lots of trees. And lots of rocks, and grow with the roots under tree roots. Very hard to dig out the roots. Makes great soups, stirfries, other nice dishes and etc. They are only around for about a month. I have been told that ramps have a purplish color where the wild leeks are white. I don't know if this is true, I have both growing together. I freeze a lot for winter soups. Everything on them is good to eat, I don't eat the roots, though.

Highly seasonal, and often in great demand when available.
Sounds cheap to me; but they're hard to come by around here if you can find them at all. I don't have any on the place, and have never tried to establish them. The only price I can find right now that has any on my list of pricing sites is Park Slope in New York City, and they're getting 12.37 a pound. -- Rivka; Finger Lakes NY, Zone 6A now I think Fresh-market organic produce, small scale _______________________________________________ |
