what is a ramp?

[Lilred]

GOB,
A ramp is perty good eatin...mighty good paired up with a "spring salad" as we call it. Some ramps, fiddlehead ferns, a few wild onions (too many of em will make ya mighty sick) some poke and even some young dandelion.
Grab some black beech & sassafrass roots fer tea and you got a meal fit fer a king. Either that or you can make a mean gallon of wine with it

BTW fer Popplecop, ramp aint no fancy term fer nuthin...been called that pert near 400 years. We dont do nuthin fancy round these parts.
