On Saturday I sold 663.00 worth of ramps by the dozen along the road. The most I've ever sold in a single day.


I went down at 8 with 75 doz and by 915 I was calling Jerry telling him I needed more.

I guess it was a combo of weather...holiday weekend ...and traffic that did it

I sold 187.00. Friday in About an hour and a half.

Saturday I sold from roughly 830 to 4. .

I have orders today also so am gonna set up and sell at 4 or so.

Jerry and the son in law dug yesterday.

We are selling some now ..wholesale..by the pound..to a guy who runs a big farmers market.

He wants 600 to 1000 pounds a week.

I'm on a ramp induced diet.
Too busy to eat while im selling them and too tired to eat when im done selling.

I've lost a pound or 2. My britches are fitting a little better.


Too bad ramp season doesn't last all year long. Lol

Just thought id update in case someones curious how our ramp business is going.

You must have a valley full of them .
The best places in my area are now housing developments .


We have met the enemy and the enemy is us!

He digs with a mattock. Less dirt in the roots and faster digging

Excellent.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Boco..no one will dig.

We have a guy from TMan in northern Ohio..that Jerry went to his farm and dug with him Friday.

The guy dug 198 lbs and made 680.00.

They dug for 3 hrs.

It took Jerry 4 hrs to get there.

The guy was skeptical but wasn't when he had 680.00 in his hand.

That was dug with excess dirt shook off
.
