This week I go foraging in the beautiful British countryside looking for the early signs of spring, and find something quite unexpected… 🌱
Join me as I talk you through wild garlic (Ramsons) identification and show you its common poisonous lookalike.

Enjoyed your video, look forward to seeing more. Happy New Year👍
Good old climate change. But on a positive note really appreciated you catching and filming both wild garlic and lords & ladies shoots, never seen anyone doing that before and it definitely helps when telling them apart! What I've found is that it often also grows together with lily of the valley and I feel like those two kinds of leaves are even easier to mix when there are no flowers around to tell them apart.
What should I do if I find a worm?
Just come across your channel and I’m absolutely loving it, just what I needed at just the right time! New sub here 😊
That's amazingly early wow
