It's finally over. All I wanted to do was create a safe patch of ramp on my family's land and finally a found someone who is as passionate about this stuff as I am (probably more). Healthy ramps that haven't been stressed by being ripped out of the soil are mine for a good price. Gotta love /out/ists, definitely one of the best communities I've been a part of.
Now onto finding good american ginseng.
