Seasonal treasures from both near and far

Ramps
Ramps, also known as wild leeks, are sustainably harvested for the co-op by a forager we’ve worked with since 2012.

They take only a small amount from each patch and hike high into the mountains to ensure that easily accessible fields aren’t overharvested. This is the last week of the season — ramps will return in spring 2020. Looking forward, there will be locally grown garlic scapes in June and cured cloves of garlic by mid-August.
