Hmmmmm, that doesn't bode well for my question Ramps are rather "unforgetable", so it sounds like they don't grow there. Ramps are a member of the Lily family, they are edible, and they're usually the first sign of spring, April or May depending on the winter

Ramps taste like an onion, and yet reeks of garlic .....omg, they are so good. But tis true, folks either lov'em or hate'm. They are difficult to cultivate, grow wild, and when they're in season it's only for 3 or 4 weeks and then disappear for another year
