The problem is the $olution: snip
Marty Travis's cousin, the owner of a 26 Acre Illinois woodlot, 
approached Marty and her husband Kris to ask them to help reduce the 
large and expanding area of wild onions, or ramps, to encourage other 
wildflowers. In one season they harvested 3,500 pounds from 1/10 Acre 
(!), sold them for $14,000 (twice as much income from their farm's 100 
acres of corn and soybeans and 70% of their total farm income).
