I remember ramps when I lived in North Carolina, along with ginseng and creasy greensI almost forgot — every year ramps (wild onions) and wild garlic come up in the pasture. Some of my horses would eat them, some would not. They are edible.
This year was a bumper crop. My brother pulled the biggest ones up. Some he ate here, the last batch he carried home because he doesn’t have them at either place in NE Ohio.
I am too lazy to go out and pull them up
I'll bet you remember Poke Sallet, too!I remember ramps when I lived in North Carolina, along with ginseng and creasy greens
Do y'all have armadillos up there? Those dang things tear up our lawn looking for grubs.
In Maine, yes, but our possums and armadillos are largely confined to the southern and coastal regions. The culprits here would be skunks. On my cameras, I see at least one skunk every night, maybe more, but I haven't seen more than one of them in a camera view at the same time.
I found three large cukes with the middles eaten out on the lower section of plants (not climbing the trellis). I suppose it's no big deal because I am already sick of cucumbers, so I'll probably be pulling the vines out in a week or so. 
I can grow zucchini’s with big fat leaves …look nice and healthy …..but never produce any “ fruit “ mainly because they produce mainly male flowers …so I gave up and save what limited room I have for producing other veggies ….Going to try again some green beans and zucchini in the garden in about a month .
...Idk what happened last year , just a few green beans and just a few zucchini that took forever to grow . Will keep you updated
Consult your Ag service or some knowledgeable nursery with your zucchini issues @Kate Ellery. You could just try another variety or go to heirloom types. You can grow pumpkins so you should certainly be able to grow zucchini. Male flowers always come first, but females should follow. Eat the males if you get too many. Batter fried is the most common way and they can even be stuffed.
