ADVANCE FOR MONDAY APRIL 20 AND THEREAFTER - This Friday April 3, 2015 photo shows Glen Facemire, owner of Ramp Farm Specialties, harvests ramps from his farm in Richwood, W. Va.  The idea behind Ramp Farm Specialties grew out of Facemire's experience with his own patch. He started it in the '80s on his land along the South Fork of the Cherry River in a wooded area, which is critical, because, unlike other alliums such as onions and garlic, which have leaves that are shaped like a tube, ramps have leaves that are shaped like a blade, and don't hold a lot of moisture, so they should not get direct sunlight.
