Mother Earth is brimming with delicious, edible gifts. Last week I went foraging wild garlic from our local woodlands and am delighted to share with you my latest recipe and short video. I took my video camera along with me and have also included a quick demo of the Wild garlic Pesto that I made as soon as I arrived home.

Wild garlic is also known as ramsons, buckrams, wild garlic, broad-leaved garlic, wood garlic, bear leek, or bear’s garlic – is a wild relative of chives native to Europe and Asia. Check out my video for more here…
