Need a ride to the airport? Sure, of course, I’d be happy to take you. Just repay me with ramps and morels from the wilds of West Virginia.*

Ramps and wild morels are quintessential local and seasonal eating!
And they are both delicious!
These tender wild Spring onions are awesome sauteed with potatoes as a breakfast hash. Yesterday I pickled three jars of the tender white bottoms and am dreaming of all the ways to eat them once they are ready: bloody mary’s, chopped in salads, as a relish…
What’s your favorite Spring food? Local asparagus is just starting to show up in markets and I am eyeing my sugar snap peas everyday hoping to spot a blossom.
Do you have any local, seasonal specialties you look forward to?

Oh, I am sooo jealous of the ramps!
I totally want one of those Eat More Kale shirts!
Asparagus definitely tops my spring produce list. Strawberries are in season here, too – they’re delicious!
This post is unbelievably beautiful. My boyfriend is obsessed with foraging. Oh, to be real life friends!

I love your photos!
My favorite local seasonal item is mint from my backyard for TEA
