My boyfriend and his parents live in Northwestern PA. In a city called Bradford. They have wild ramps growing everywhere. Since I started dating him 3 years ago, his mom turned me on to them. In the Allegheny National Forest, its amazing how many you find. The later they are picked, the more pungent they are. The smaller ones also have more taste, then the bigger ones. They also keep well when frozen.

I’m writing a story about the Civil War, and needed a definition for “ramps”. After logging on to your site I realized that this veggie grows “rampant” in my front lawn every spring (I live near Richmond VA).Can’t wait to try them.

Amy: Oh! I wish I had leftovers and I’d be making this again too. So glad you liked it. Thanks for reporting back.

Ellie: Thanks for sharing! So glad you found them and gave the pizza a try.

Grant: I’ll cross my fingers for you!

celticmoon: $2.75 a bunch, huh? I was wondering how much they’d be at the farmers markets. You know, though, if I saw the ramps again at Whole Foods, I just might buy a whole pound. A pretty good use of 12 bucks, I’d say.

Oooo, thanks for the recipe and links! Snapped up a couple beautiful bunches at the Madison(WI) farmer’s market today. Came googling looking for what to do with them…

Whole Foods pricing is nuts. I thought $2.75 a bunch was maybe just a wee bit pricey and actually hesitated. But just for a moment.

They are so fragrent and green and rich looking – they scream spring.

This pizza looks fantastic! I’m so jealous. I so want to do something with ramps but for some reason I find them hard to find at my local farmers market. I hope I can track them down before their brief season is over. Thanks.

Just had to let you know I found them in the woods when I was out running today, perhaps it is a bit colder here than other places so they took a while longer to come up. And my god they are like heaven. We made your pizza recipe with a few small changes (not many!) and it was wonderful. Thank you for sharing it, this has got to be one of the best foods I have ever eaten!

OK, I made this pizza a couple of nights ago, and it was DELICIOUS. I’ll probably make it again tonight with my remaining ramps. Yowza.

David: So now I’m totally considering a drive up to Madison this weekend for a quick trip to the farmers market. Hmmm …

Anne: Ramps are pretty new to me too. I can only imagine what the Top Chefs did with them (I just started watching this season).

Ellie: You might wish for a Whole Foods, but I wish for woods to traipse around in. Grass is always greener, I suppose.

Cindy: I think farmers markets would be your best bet.

Norecipes: Sounds delicious!

Michelle: Ha! Good luck at the greenmarket!
