With the days noticeably lengthening and the sun's rays beginning to make an effect, one of the first edible greens to appear is Wild Garlic.
Renville woods in Oranmore is a damp woodland and becomes carpeted with the welcome sight of these fresh greens and the air is filled with its unmistakable odour, strong enough to send any lurking vampires scurrying back to the dark! As with most plants, it's best to pick the leaves before the white - star like flower appears in April. Crush them up and add them to butter for wild garlic butter or just pluck a leaf and enjoy the snack as you walk! Yours under the Elm, Ian www.oghamtrees.com

Ian ClaxtonIan Claxton is a traditional healer and founder of Ogham Tree Flower Essences and Oracles. He is originally from Dublin and trained as a scientist, where he gained a bachelors degree in Biotechnology and later a Masters in Integrative health science. Although he found his career very rewarding, he felt inexplicably drawn to the energy healing practices of eastern Asia. So, in 2001, he decided to leave his life behind and studied Traditional Chinese Medicine (which includes acupuncture and herbal training). He left Dublin and studied in Beijing, China and after that came back to live in Galway in the west of Ireland to set up his practice. Archives
