I spent the last few gloriously sunny, warm summer like days out in the Burren and on the roads around Clare looking for wild edible plants, particularly wild garlic from which I will make pesto. The fields and roadways are full of edible plants, including nettles and dandelions, just ripe for the picking . I found hearty flowering wild garlic along the stream in Doolin, by Fisher St. Beautiful wildflowers, ferns, the strange looking great horsetail and the call of the cuckoo bird make the Burren a special place for walking or cycling, especially under a cloudless sky!
