Looking forward to the heady scent of Ramsoms accompanying springtime woodland walks at locations like this in East Durham, NE England.
Better known as 'Wild Garlic', I was surprised to discover the plant goes by quite a few other names. One such name is cow's leek as seemingly cows love to eat them.
I was reading that down in Devon, dairy farmers have occasionally had the milk of their herds rejected because of the garlic flavour imparted to it by the cows having grazed upon the plant.
I'm sure, with appropriate promotion, there is a marketing opportunity somewhere for garlic-flavoured milk!#england #durham #spring #march2026 #ramsons #countryside #woodland #photography

Popped into my usual #ramsons spot on the way home today... needs a bit more cookin'... should be pretty good by the end of March. (Location: South Cambridgeshire... I saw a very recent utoob of someone picking decent looking leaves, but they're down Bristol way.)
Nice little handful of sweet pungent leaves.

Discovered a well-hidden abundance of wild garlic growing near my house. Pesto is on the menu this week!

The ~hour commute is a bit of a drag, make for a long old day... but it is cool that quite close to the work end and not much of a detour away is our old #WildGarlic stomping ground. It's a bit of a walk from the road but in 35 mins from car parked to back on the road I was able to gather a nice bunch of leaves.
Most of the ground level greenery in these photos is wild garlic!
It's a bit young still, but still a good harvest to be had.
At home now and I've made a nice batch of wild garlic, EVOO, and cashew "pesto", with a touch of salt and lemon juice. A large dollop of this mixed through orecchiette will be dinner. (With bonus #vegan points.)

Lovely. There's nothing like wild garlic (Allium ursinum), aka #Ramsons.
I remember seeing it all over the place at #LydfordGorge several years ago.

#Wildgarlic #ramsons, "The Latin name, Allium ursinum translates as the common name of bear garlic, stemming from the belief that bears ate it to regain their strength after a winter of sleep" I can confirm it's true I do this ;) https://www.woodlarking.co.uk/post/wild-harvest-of-ramsons?fbclid=IwAR2RvdBwhnYQeva_shRNIvTFsuEZq0P4QNsprRU329kST68Kmv82GI7XeTk
