I've been adding wild garlic to my salads. It grows in lawns and pastures (except where my sheep have access to it, they clean it out), but I have been encouraging it to grow in my garden, where it gets much larger than do the wild-grown lawn specimens. The best thing about eating wild garlic is that it repels ticks, mosquitoes, and chiggers. The ticks will crawl all over me without attaching, mosquitoes will land/take off,land/take off without ever biting, and I can work in chigger infested areas with only the rare chigger bite.
