Wild About Wild Garlic!

We had a wonderful turnout for our Wild About Wild Garlic Weekend. Thank you to everyone who showed up, bags in hand to pick and gather!

And to Lorraine from Gallivanting.ie who showed us how to find wild garlic versus three cornered leek, and why picking nettles shouldn’t scare you!

And an extra thank you to local food producer Fiona from Wildabout.ie

Wild About is owned and operated by husband and wife team Malcom and Fiona from what is Irelands only commercial Nettle Farm situated just 20 minutes from Courtown.

Fiona was on hand to give samples of her award winning wild garlic pesto and infused oil. And to talk a little about Wild Garlics health benefits.

The attendees enjoyed samples of Lorraines wild garlic Butter and Wild Garlic Soup too!

So for anyone interested, you’ll find the recipes of what was tasted on the day at the end of the page!

If you want to skip the work and go straight to eating, you can purchase locally made Wild Garlic Pesto and Wild Garlic Oil from Wildabout.ie and have it shipped nationwide!
