2024 Early Fall Ramp Bulbs #2

Hello everyone. Just a quick updated to let you know that I was able to get out and get several more ramp bulbs so if you missed out on the first batch, I have more to ship out now.

Now is an excellent time to get your ramp bulbs. They are just right for canning, pickling, eating, or planting for a harvest next year.

Ramps, with their unique flavor and ability to enhance a variety of dishes, are a fantastic investment for both your current culinary adventures and future harvests.

2024 Early Fall Ramp Bulbs

Dear Valued Customers,

I hope this message finds you well and eagerly anticipating the changing seasons. As the days grow shorter and the air carries that unmistakable crispness, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news: our ramp bulbs are back!

Over the past month, I’ve been heartened by the flurry of emails from many of you, all inquiring about the availability of these beloved treasures. I appreciate your patience as we’ve worked diligently to ensure the highest quality bulbs for your culinary and planting needs.

The Wait Is Over: Ramp Bulbs Are Here!

While it’s true that this year’s ramp season arrived a tad later than usual, I assure you that the wait has been worth it. Our ramp beds have been carefully tended, allowing these wild leeks to thrive in their natural woodland habitat. And now, with great joy, I announce that our ramp bulbs are ready for packaging and delivery.

Why Our Ramp Bulbs Stand Out:

Plump and Robust: Picture this—rows of ramp bulbs, nestled in the rich, loamy soil, soaking up the dappled sunlight filtering through the forest canopy. These bulbs have flourished, growing plump and robust. Their vibrant green leaves and ivory bulbs are a testament to nature’s resilience.

Versatility Defined: Our ramp bulbs are not just for the kitchen (though they certainly excel there). Yes, you can pickle them, sauté them with butter, or fold them into a delicate omelette. But don’t forget their potential beyond the culinary realm! Plant them now, and come spring, you’ll be rewarded with tender shoots that burst forth, adding a wild touch to your garden beds or containers.

Canning and Preserving: If you’re a fan of preserving the flavors of each season, these ramp bulbs are your canvas. Imagine jars of pickled ramps lining your pantry shelves—their pungent, garlicky aroma preserved for months to come. Whether you’re a seasoned canner or a curious beginner, these bulbs are your ticket to homemade goodness.

Planting for Future Harvests: Perhaps you’re thinking ahead, planning for next year’s bounty. Smart move! Plant these ramp bulbs now, and watch as they establish themselves. By next spring, you’ll have a patch of wild ramps ready for sustainable harvesting. Plus, their delicate white flowers are a sight to behold.

I thank each and every one of you for your continued patronage over the years.

Last Batch Of Ramp Bulbs For Winter/Spring 2024

I have just put the sales page up for the last of the ramp bulbs. This is all there will be until this fall. Most of these that I have now have already started growing and they have 1″ to 3″ of green leaves starting to sprout. I don’t have a lot, but I will keep the sales buttons up until I have exhausted my supply. These are literally “instant ramps” since they have already started to grow.

Have a great spring!

As of now, ramp bulbs are back in stock.
