Ramps are also known as wild garlic or wild leeks. Ramps are native to the Eastern United States and southern parts of Canada. Ramps have been collected and used by many of the northern Native American tribes for a food and medicinal plant to include treatment of upper respiratory infections and ear aches as well as a vermifuge .Ramps became a food and spice source for the early settlers of the Appalachia, and were considered a good springtime omen. Today, there are a number of festivals held every spring that hold Ramps in high esteem. Ramps and Rails Festival in Virginia and Cosby Ramp Festival in Tennessee are two such events. In Canada, Ramps are considered a culinary delicacy and over collection has rendered the species as 'threatened in the wild. Plant Ramps in your herb or vegetable garden for a taste of timeless heritage.
