A successful gathering walk... That's is having a walk and gathering stuff. 🚢

I want to start using hazel coppice as a material, for furniture, shelves, etc, so collected a "sample pack" of different sizes from some local woods (its super abundant here). 🌳

Wild garlic season also recently started! Joy! 🌱

And I found a house plant someone had thrown out, in need of a bit of ❀️🌿

So much abundance.

I had success processing the wild garlic.

I made a load of pesto, with hazelnuts I foraged last year (took 1.5 hours to crack 200g of nut), some Parmesan-esque cheese, olive oil, salt and pepper.

I'm freezing it in ice cube trays for easy use for the next months.

And then wild garlic butter. All the ingredients in the name. Rolled into a tube, once its hardened up again I'll probably slice it up, and freeze and bag it.

Yum yum!
