  • Welcome back to It's Alive with Brad Leone for episode 87 and the final installment of Brad’s special backyard grilling series. This week our guy is joined by friend and colleague Chrissy Tracey for a forest excursion focused on finding ramps - edible wild leeks that grow in shaded, woody areas. With their freshly picked supplies ready to go, our foraging pros head back to Casa Brad to rendezvous with Sam Seneviratne and bake a few pizzas with seasonal toppings. We’re going forest to table with this one, folks. Let’s do it.

    • @gravity4950
      @gravity4950 2 года назад +1

      The bulb is very good, but if you dig it up that plant won't regrow the next year, it has an effect on the soil and colony health, and ramps are a vulnerable species. In order to harvest ramps in a sustainable way, please just use the stem and leaves.

    Current AT thru hiker here. Ramps all over the south in the spring! Also found some morels. Be VERY CAREFUL NOT to eat Lily of the valley, which has leaves similar to ramps. Just pull up on the ramp, smell, and if it smells like onion/garlic, you're good. If not, don't eat it. If you can't smell, also don't eat it. Because one person on trail almost died doing just that. Happy foraging, be safe and smart!

    Brad is spot on with the conservation, ramps take up to 7 years to reproduce. 10% harvest every 10 years is a good rule of thumb.
