Rampfest 2021
We’ve put a lot of thought into if and how to host Rampfest, and we’ve decide that we will have an open-forest day this year, but it will look a little different than Rampfests past.
The farm will be open for pick your own ramps and free-form forest exploration 10am-2pm on Saturday April 24th.
harvesting
Pick-your-own ramp harvest will be available for folks who have a good understanding of sustainable harvest and agree to use sustainable best practices. Our video on sustainable harvest is at https://youtu.be/NWTzjFVLjss, and we will be around to give instruction.
Harvesters will be asked to provide all their own harvest tools- scissors or knives for leaf harvest, hand trowels for bulb harvest, and harvest containers- plastic bags or buckets work well. Each harvester is limited to a 5 lb harvest (about one very full 5 gallon bucket) at $6/lb for leaf only, $8/lb for bulb harvest. Proceeds from ramp sales will go toward future educational programming.
The farm is located at 30904 Rognstad Ridge Road, Cashton, WI 54619.
Our address isn’t chronological with the other addresses in our area, but we will have signs at the end of our driveway to help you find us!
facilities & camping
We have rustic facilities including a portapotty, but no indoor public spaces. We will not be hosting workshops or meals this year, and won’t have the big tents up. Camping can be made available upon request. Email Farmers@BandEsTrees.com by noon Friday April 23rd if you are interested in camping.
Mask must be worn any time attendees are interacting with our staff or other groups.
As the summer progresses, we will be opening the farm for picnics, exploring and camping opportunities. Stay tuned as these plans develop!
