Featured Produce: Ramps
A cross between an onion and garlic, ramps are a wild green related to the lily. They are one of the first signs of spring, and you can forage for them all throughout Michigan in April and May.

Here are 7 things to make with them this season:

• Ramp Chowder
• Ramp Frittata with Asparagus and Potatoes
• Watercress Salad with Pickled Ramps and Farro
• Ramp Butter
• Ramp Pesto
• Ramp Rissoto with Blue Cheese
• Savory Oats with Ramps, Parmesan, and Tamari

And if you're into ferments, be sure to checkout Elder Fire Farm Arts Culture Club, which runs the full market season. It's sort of like a CSA, but instead of a veggies box you'll get a pint or quart of fermented (local) veggies! Over the winter I got pickled turnips and watermelon radishes, garlic dill sauerkraut, curry kraut, and this amazing carrot and radish kraut pictured above. I loved the later so much I went back for seconds...
