You've really ramped up this episode Brooke . Soup looks great. Keep up the good work.
Every year Mount Rogers had a Ramp Festival. I never got to go. I'm so glad you took the time to show me how to identify & find them. I enjoyed learning how to clean the ramps, dehydrate the bulb & leaves. The soup looked delicious! Thank you for sharing.
Nice soup recipe. Looks delicious! Thanks for sharing how to forage ramps and dehydrate them.
I kept hearing of ramps,and you have shown me. Thanks you Brooke,learn so much from you.
That soup looks mouth wateringly delicious!
I pulled the phone close to smell the onions!🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for sharing, much love and respect from Colorado!!🤗✌🍻
Another awesome video.
Omg thank you! I went to my hidden and spot in the forest in Detroit that nobody knows about I found the ramps! I tried to pull them by hand and they broke off at the stem. I did not realize I have to dig them up as they are bulbs thank you so much going back tomorrow to harvest!
Please don't dig them! Just take the leaves!!! Here's an article explaining why and how to sustainably harvest them! www.snakerootecotours.com/post/ramp-season-is-suddenly-upon-us-let-s-not-love-them-to-death
Wish I could harvest some, they don't grow in the desert! Ha!
Good looking soup Brooke... Dave loved it!
Bacon makes everything better!!
haha nope won't find them there!
Awesome Brooke! My family has a veggie and herb garden in the Mountains. Leeks would be an amazing addition! Be blessed!
Great tips. Thanks for sharing with us.
Loved this. Love wild leeks....
Love this vid _ the tone, flow, technique is really easy to view. Believabillity and info is heaps good. Looking forward to the next installment. Thank you.
thanks!
Wow !! That looks Awesome Brooke ,, love heavy bodied soups....makes winter's bearable.......
I have just a small patch to harvest from so i clean and chop the entire ramp in quarter inch pieces to dehydrate. I can not believe you ramp forest!!! Unreal. Lucky you!
Thanks Brooke I'll have to check it out and see if they grow down here. I'm learning some new everyday. Thanks
Hey Dave good to see you. Thanks Brook for filming him. Anyway I enjoyed that cooking n harvesting you did. ... Arkansas Clyde 🇺🇸✌️
Sure showing me some good delicious food before bedtime again lol and the soup looks yummy also great video Brooke 👍😆😊...
hahah thanks
Oh my your soup looked Amazing! We have ramps here in WNC Love em! Love, Peace and Blessings to you Brooke :)
So great recipe! I'll definitely try it when I find wild ramps.
Hey good news- going to try to reach our remote property today where I stashed all my tools... hope to incorporate it into a video! Geez sorry it's taken so long! I'm looking forward to tinkering!
Hy, we don't take the hole ramps, because there is not so much in my favorite spot. We cut the leaves and dried them (like dried herb), there are good for everything - salad, risoto, marinate the meat... We also make the pesto but we don't lake it so much. days ago I saw your chanel, wau I like it, you are amazing. I'm also for making with your hand, like gardening, have a farm or small amount of animals, like this you can have eggs from chicken, milk from goats and chesse , mushroom from forest nearby. Greatings from Slovenia, have a nice day.
awesome thanks!
Thank you!!! I've seen these! I didn't know what they were but there were everywhere. I'm going out this coming weekend and look. That soup looks heavenly!!! Thank you soooo much!!!
sweet!
That soup looked SO good!!
It's a good thing I already ate dinner, that soup looks AMAZING! I can't eat onions, so leeks are my go-to veggie when onion is in a recipe. You gave lots of great advice (as usual)...thanks!!
Kathy, I feel for you, truly, for not being able to eat onions. I can eat them, any type of onion, but I can't eat eggs if they are cooked on top of the stove; I can only eat them in something cooked in the oven on a higher temperature, where the proteins and enzymes gel in a different way. There are times when I crave a fried, poached egg, or scrambled eggs... Good that you can at least eat leeks. :)
Very cool! Never knew ramps existed before watching your channel. Thank you!
Hi Brooke, cool video, thanks for sharing. On a side note, I hope you didn't get flooded like my area did here in Sanford, Michigan. Rock On!
take care!!!
Great job Brooke, I also enjoy ramps as many other Wild root vegetables, your soup looks delicious and healthy. Dave loves it. Love both of your alls videos.

That soup looks AWESOME girl, one of my favourite meals. Leaving Ireland right now and bringing a HUGE bowl. Don't forget to save me some.
mmmmmm yes
Man that soup looks awesome. I make a similar potato bacon carrot garlic soup .Thanks for sharing 🙂🇨🇦👍
One of my favorite things is to be reminded of abundance in the wild. Seems like proof to me that we are meant to be well fed and happy. Love this vid, Brooke!
I LOVE garlic ramps too!
OMG, that looks so delicious
Thanks! I’ve been looking for more info on identifying and foraging wild edibles. This was perfect!
I have a patch of ramps on the property, that basically I am the only one digging them up. I have 2 or 3 friends that I give them to. I have done what you did here, all different ways of drying them and making them last until the next season. I even fermented some, which turned out great.
Love this! Good job on the soup! I could almost taste and smell it! Now I want to make some! See how you inspire! ❤️🌈☀️❤️
That soup looks really good too eat good job
That soup looked so good ! Thanks for sharing .
My favorite video so far!
That soup looked so good! I had never heard of ramps. I don't think we have them here in the south.☹ I agree with the others, a cookbook would be great!
thanks!
Wow ! I love these tricks from that cook... Dave is the lucky one here but I will certainly appreciate that smell and taste in my lifetime training with Brook meals creativity ... I think I will add my crunchy sourdough biscuits with this meal soup. Wouldn't it be AMAZING ? I am sure it will... THANKS "Girl in the Woods " in the kitchen. 😂😍👍 and all off the sharing survivalists ideas and clues experimentations...
The soup looks so yummy. I’ll definitely be making it.
Going to Michigan soon, have not sat around a bonfire since 1998, definitely on my to do list, thank you Girl in The Woods
oh man... do it!
U.P. here, we love our leaks. Love to pickle them.
thank you for that i see those things all over the place didnt know what they were guess i will half to check them out tomorrow when im picking morel were finally having a good year first in about five years got a little over a pound dried hope for at least one more good day great video see you on the next one oh yea the soup looks incredible
Foraging is the best! Love that soup 🍲 Brooke! ❤️
Never knew about wild leeks, thanks for sharing!
You inspired me to make my first baked potatoes in my fire pit, they were awesome!
That soup looks so good! Looking at dehydrators. So many different ones! 😳
Send me some of the ramps and the Soup please 😁 That’s how I cook!!! Yummy 🌻😁🍻
We dig and put ours in an old onion bag (nylon netting you get from the store but the large size) then we take them to the creek and dunk n swish the bag back n forth, works like a charm to get most of the dirt off, then finish cleaning them at home. Love wild leek dip with crackers.
nice!
Definitely ramping up to summer!
Great episode!
That soup looked absolutely amazing and I sure wish I could do something like that that’s awesome. I’m definitely gonna try that soon
You make me happy just watching you!😄
Excellent video, super informative. I knew of wild ramps but didn't actually know what they looked like.
Love the Vireo singing in the background! We have them nesting near here, too. I've really been enjoying Blue Spruce tip tea for the first time. As soon as the ground will let me back into the woods, I plan to gather leeks as well :) Great recipe, Brooke! Thanks for sharing ... Kihelakayo, you two! God Bless
nice
was fun ThankYou I Looked at this one but hand to look at this Again . Well Done B Its Sure Look nice :)
They are so good! I know chefs that would pay you good money for those.
Next time try cutting the ramp with the bottom part with roots still in the soil. It’s a good way to make sure you’ll keep them in good shape while still being able to eat most of it. Pull back just enough dirt to expose a little bit of the bulb so you can see where to put your knife and cut it so you leave the bottom with roots in the ground.Then re-cover the roots with dirt and leave them to grow next year. Not that I had to explain that last part to you.
Good looking soup! Do you eat the green leafs or just the bulb?
The leaf is also really good.
Next time you have a bunch try sautéing them. Bulbs and leaves left intact, rinsed, and patted dry
Sautéed in oil or bacon drippings
with a little Coarse sea salt at the end. It’s really easy and really really tasty by itself or a side of some fish or whatever else you want.
Now I have to go look in my woods to see if we have any of these.
ALWAYS WONDERFUL VIDEOS. CONGRATS ON ALL YOUR SUBS. SWAMP HUGS FROM LOUISIANA.
Our woods here in North central PA look like yours in the spring. Everyone here eats the sping tonic of leeks every spring. Many Fire Dept. and churches do Ham and leek dinners as fund raising. I personally dry the whole leek and grind them in a spice grinder or coffee grinder to make a dries shake for steaks or any kind of meat. We also mix some fresh leeks with cream cheese to make a leek dip ( just be careful not to use too many leeks as it can get over powering. Just put the whole plant on a slice of bread and butter and enjoy. When eating raw best if everyone eats them so as the pungent smell is less from others if you ate them as well. LOL
We have what I call wild onions here in Arkansas and they grow everywhere and is easily used in recipes and I have cooked them with eggs for breakfast and they tasted good. I have never tried to dehydrate them, but I guess that you could do it and put them away for later use.
awesome!
Oooh.... That looks soooo good. Haven’t seen any my way but will look. 🤪
I have never seen wild ramps in northeast Florida. We had a variety of wild onion in our yard when I was growing up. I tried grabbing seeds from them to start other areas of the yard but they did not seem to take. If I can ever get some land I am going to grow a lot of varieties of plants. Keep up the great job you do and keep living your dreams. You and your family stay healthy and stay safe.
yeah not sure they grow there!
Fantastic forage harvest storage and cooking video Brooke , girl you had a passion a vision and turned it into gold ... you are amazing !!! And ohhhh that soup 🍜💃will be sooo good the day after. KUDDOS 👏👍💃🙆❤⚘🔥🌲🌲🌲🍳🍽🍷
yesss thanks!
Food...food....I'm addicted, where's me shovel 😂😂😂😂👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome,awesome Brooke!!! 👍😃✌️
Thanks Brooke!
The leaves make a wonderful pesto or herbal butter or add to herbal fresh cheese as well. Some leaves into a mixed salade are tasty as well. I know this as wild garlic or in German "Bärlauch".
So much miss my foraging back in WI. This was always on list along with wild onions ,oregano, mushrooms and asparagus and on it goes. Here in Az. to dry in phoenix area. i am told up north there is some good foraging. Great video informative as always especially for those new to foraging. Be safe.
Nice patch!!!! Sweet
Omgosh that looks amazing! Yummmm😋
I have never harvested ramps/wild leeks. It looks pretty easy and well worth the effort. I only ate leeks for the first time when I was about 72 years old. Now I buy them occasionally. Never too old to learn. Thanks for the lessons Brooke. :-)
another great instrutional video from our girl in the woods, Brookie. we have wild onions down here I know. we also have chicken of the woods mushrooms that you can cook up like chicken. ive never tried but i do fry up some mean chicken. My dog Poppy backs her rear up to my lap like Maysie does to you. I find it more endearing also. Maybe our doggos are just situating for a "running start" should they need to protect us. Naaawww, they want their butt scratching when they want it. We just gotta naturally love our fur babies. Poppy does not know shes a dog and i wont tell her. Looking forward to the next GITWz video and to 100,000. Gonna be a celebration but id follow you if you only had 100. Peace/Howdy Bushradical!!!!
hahah yes thank you!
Fantastique, merci beaucoup :)
i have to find these ! i am on the hunt for wild blue berries, wild onions and garlic -- i will never give up ! i have found tons of wild blackberries - they are nice to get but if you don't have on long sleeves you will have some cut up arms !! thanks for sharing Brooke ! hugs from FL !
yes blackberries can be nasty
I could almost smell the goodness just watching you. I will definitely be trying these.
