1/4 with distilled water
10 drops of each essential oil:

How much do you love Calendula 🧡

Calendula is easy to fall in love with.

For one, it’s absolutely beautiful and it’s easy to grow.

Calendula is also really versatile - there are so many gifts to this plant!

I was thrilled when this week’s podcast guest, Alex Crofoot, Black Locust Gardens , chose calendula as her plant for her interview. I loved hearing both new and familiar ways of working with this favorite (and very versatile!) plant.

This episode is full of tips to help you:
► Make infused oil with fresh calendula flowers (without spoilage due to moisture content)
► Make a full-spectrum calendula tincture (and why you might want to take the extra steps)
► Avoid problems with mold on your harvested calendula

For those of you who don’t already know Alex, she is the co-owner of Black Locust Gardens herb farm and plant nursery, and a coordinator for the Great Lakes Herb Faire.

This episode also shares a delectable recipe from Colleen Codekas - Grow Forage Cook Ferment !

Wine out of dandelions? You bet! Making homemade dandelion wine is a longstanding family tradition. We don't make it every year, but I do like to keep a few bottles on hand for company.

The taste of this dandelion wine is rich, golden and warming – more like a good brandy than a wine. I've had friends who don't normally like wine comment that they do enjoy this “spring tonic”.

“Dandelion wine, believed to be of Celtic origin, is regarded as one of the fine country wines of Europe. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, it was not proper for ladies to drink alcohol. However, dandelion flower wine was considered so therapeutic to the kidneys and digestive system that it was deemed medicinal even for the ladies.“

This is one of my all time favorite tea blends. We’ve been drinking it nightly for the past several weeks. I’ve been enjoying it so much that I get excited for evening time so I can finally curl up with it!

🌿 1 Tablespoon dried oatstraw (Avena sativa)
🍵 2 teaspoons dried lemon balm (Melissa officinalis)
🌹 1 teaspoon dried rose petals (Rosa spp.)
🍵 1 teaspoon dried chamomile (Chamomila matricaria)
🌿 pinch of dried lavender flowers (Lavandula angustifolia)
🍵 ½ teaspoon dried peppermint (Mentha x piperita)

Steep the herbs in 12 ounces of just boiled water, covered, for 10 minutes.

Strain. Add honey if desired.

Enjoy!

Making White Pine Tincture! I am using my dried needles but you can also use fresh. Fill a jar and cover with alcohol (I used everclear). Put the lid on and place in a warm place. Shake daily for 4-6 weeks. Strain, and bottle in dark dropper bottles!
Shelf life 5 years, add a 2 ml to glass of water, tea etc and drink 2-3 times a day.
It can be used as an expectorant for coughs and to help relieve chest congestion; it is also good for sore throats. It brings you clarity and mental clearness. It can help with depression, obesity, allergies and high blood pressure. Pine is used for upper and lower respiratory tract swelling (inflammation), stuffy nose, hoarseness, common cold, cough or bronchitis, fevers, tendency towards infection, and blood pressure problems. Some people apply pine directly to the skin for mild muscle pain and nerve pain.

Yum! Having a delightful cup of Blue Butterfly Pea Tea! Not as “blue” as I expected it’s more a green color but wonderful nonetheless 🥰💚💙
