BOTANICAL SAMPLE - NOT GERMINATION TESTED

Life cycle: Perennial

Ramps are a much-treasured harbinger of Spring. Often the first green vegetable to sprout after the long winter — and a healthy one at that — they are so beloved that many towns up and down Eastern North America celebrate a "Ramp Festival" upon their arrival. They have recently become a highly sought-after luxury item too, available for sometimes $25 per pound at high-end greengrocers from Brooklyn to Chicago (which actually got its name from the Algonquin word for ramps!) — leading to major fears of over-harvesting. Yet for generations these were considered "peasant food," and they are typically foraged from the wild rather than cultivated. The main reason they are rarely grown is simply a lack of patience: like other perennial vegetables, ramps from seed take years to reach full maturity — and need a deciduous woodland habitat in which most farmers are unused to cultivating crops. They also divide quite slowly. The rule of thumb when foraging a hidden, private patch of ramps is to only take — at most! — up to 1/7 of the plants each year, to allow for regeneration and maintenance of the patch. If a patch is being foraged by others, take far less. To be absolutely sustainable, a forager should only take one of the bright green, broad leaves (which are unusual for Alliums) and not disturb or remove the bulbs at all. Both the leaves and the pale, slender bulbs can be consumed though. Ramps have a milder, more delicate flavor than other wild onions, but are more pungent and flavorful than cultivated leeks or scallions. The best ramps boast notes of garlic as well.

GROWING TIPS: According to C. Dale Hendricks, who collected these seeds in the hills and dales west of Philadelphia, ramp seeds are typically "double dormant," which means they require two winters before germination. Sometimes they will germinate before winter, and the root will grow all winter, but the first leaves won't appear until Spring. Other times they will send out roots and shoots all at once in the Spring. Dale says the best way to get these seeds to germinate soon is to keep them vacillating between cooler and warmer temperatures, such as by keeping them in the fridge for a few days, then removing them, and so on. In milder climates, such as the Southeast, you might want to simply plant them on arrival and let nature take its course. But even with Dale's expert treatment, these seeds may still take a year or more to germinate. Once they do, resist the urge to harvest any for at least five years, and eventually you will be richly rewarded with a secret ramp patch of your own. (Choose a moist deciduous forest or the shadiest corner of your garden — but do not plant where the shade is provided by evergreen trees or shrubs, as ramps are spring ephemerals that rely on the dappled sun of spring before the tall trees leaf out.) For those who live in areas where this is a native plant, it is a great candidate for "guerilla gardening," or "reverse wildcrafting": find some good habitat, plant them, and keep coming back every year to check on them. Ramps are overharvested and therefore under threat across their range, so future generations will thank you.

The Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA) published this excellent piece on growing ramps from seed which we highly recommend reading.

NOTE: Due to limited seed quantity, and stratification requirements, we have decided to not perform a germination test, so these are being sold as a "botanical sample."

This Stuff Turned My Morning into a Rocket Launch – No Crash, Just Pure Chaos!
Flavor Name: Zero Ultra, Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 24), Flavor Name: Zero Ultra, Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 24)
I popped open my first can of this sparkling energy elixir expecting the usual lukewarm disappointment, but instead, it hit like a caffeinated unicorn tap-dancing on my taste buds. The flavor is ridiculously good – think tropical punch meets crisp citrus without that artificial "why did I do this" aftertaste. It's completely sugar-free, so no sneaky crash later, yet the carbonation is perfectly balanced: fizzy enough to feel exciting, but not so aggressive it turns your esophagus into a launchpad. Digestibility? Flawless. My stomach thanked me instead of staging a protest, which is a miracle for someone who once considered coffee a food group. As for effectiveness, this bad boy delivers exactly what it promises and then some. The caffeine content is spot-on potent – enough to power through a soul-crushing workday or an impromptu home renovation project without the jitters or heart palpitations that usually come with high-octane drinks. I tackled my to-do list like a caffeinated superhero, all while staying hydrated and focused. Five stars for turning a regular Tuesday into an epic quest. If you're looking for clean, bubbly motivation in a can, stop scrolling and add this to your cart immediately. Your future self will high-five you.

Great taste without the sugar crash
Flavor Name: Zero Ultra, Size: 16 Fl oz (Pack of 15)
I picked this up because I wanted an energy drink that wouldn’t be loaded with sugar, and this one honestly surprised me. The flavor is really light and refreshing—not too sweet or overpowering like some other energy drinks. I’ve been using it mainly in the mornings or when I need a quick boost, and it definitely helps with energy and focus without making me feel jittery. One thing I really like is that there’s no heavy aftertaste, which I’ve noticed with other sugar-free drinks. Pros: Zero sugar but still tastes good Smooth, not too strong or artificial Gives a noticeable energy boost Cons: Might be a little too mild if you like very strong flavors The price can add up if you drink them often Overall: I’d recommend this if you want a cleaner-tasting energy drink without all the sugar. It’s easy to drink and does what it’s supposed to.

My go-to energy drink for years, no crashes or headaches
Flavor Name: Zero Ultra, Size: 16 Fl oz (Pack of 15)
Consistent energy, good taste, and no weird side effects ✔️ Sugar-free with no crash ✔️ No headaches or jittery feeling ✔️ Clean, smooth energy boost ✔️ Good flavor without being overly sweet ✔️ Reliable enough for long-term daily use ✔️ Subscription makes it easy to keep stocked I’ve been buying Monster Zero Ultra for years and have it on subscription. It’s the one energy drink I consistently go back to. I've tried most others and they all leave me feeling weird. I actually feel a noticeable energy boost from it, but without the downsides I’ve had with other drinks. No headaches, no weird jittery feeling, and no crash later on. The flavor is also solid (this one and Ultra Violet are my go tos') , not overly sweet, and easy to drink regularly. I only buy sugar-free energy drinks, and this checks that box without sacrificing taste. I limit myself to one a day after the gym and water the rest of the day. After trying a lot of different brands, this is the one that’s stayed consistent for me, which is why I’ve kept it on subscription.
