Today I learned how to forage for ramps. We went back into the bush where there are loads of patches; we learned what to take and what to leave for seed for continued propagation. Our lunch today: ramp & watercress soup with yogurt from Sweet Paul mag. #FoodRevolution #Foodstand #newrecipe

DietID_TeamDietitians 9yr Whoa! What's the trick for foraging these?

JenniferEmilson 9yr First, you need a small trowel or weeding tool. You look for larger plants, and then only go for the centre ramps- they are larger, more mature. The younger ones are always around the outer edges of a plant. Leave these to continue growing for a couple of more seasons. This way there is always growth guaranteed. @Rachna

JenniferEmilson 9yr Oh- you need to go into the dirt with a digging tool, being careful not to break the stems @Rachna
