Steve's farming, food and photography

5/03/2010



Erin and I went on Ramp hunt this weekend. If your willing the woods are full of edible treasures. Ramps are a native North American plant that tastes like garlic and onions. Lucky for us we found an area with an over abundance. Which enabled us to pick a few pounds without denting the plant population for next years hunters.

In the evening we dinned on Ramp & potato soup with a homemade vegetable broth. As well as Ramp pesto made with almonds and olive oil. Two new farmer friends joined us to feast in celebration of spring.
