So I got: chamomile (careful if allergic to asters), tulsi, stinging nettles, echinacea (not for long term use), elder flower and elderberries (good for pollinators), 3 mints (catmint/catnip, peppermint and spearmint) could be too strong for some people, mullein (careful of breathing it in) (tea, or smoke) it's an expectorant, oat straw (avena sativa) (milky stage tincture or tea), skullcap (for sleep), valerian (knocks you out), lemon balm (easy to grow, good for anxiety, lift spirits, helps with psychosomatic symptoms), yarrow (stops bleeding), marshmallow root (helps with gut health)/broad plantain (good for gut health). Food uses for rosemary, thyme, garlic, oregano, hibiscus, rose, lavender. More colors in food, the better (eat the rainbow). This is not an exhaustive list. Please consult with your doctor if allergic or taking medications, and research each individual herb to see if it would work for you. Stop taking if you are experiencing adverse reactions.
It was really nice of you to take the time to type all this. I would like to add: I believe broad leaf and narrow leaf plantain have pretty much the same medicinal values. I use them interchangeably. If what's growing in your area is narrow leaf, grab that. You'll just need more leaves because they're smaller.
Be very careful with skullcap. It’s a powerful herb that should be taken with the mentality “less is more” just like with poke root which can pull tumors out of the body in small does but larger doses can be fatal they say
You guys are always so much fun to watch. It's obvious that you love what you do, as much as you love one another. This has to be the most wholesome, educational channel on YT.
More vids like THIS!! I love learning the kind of herbal info y'all talked about today! I have also read these same things in my books, but somehow, talking about them in person, and also in the videos helps it sink in much better! Thanks for sharing! ❤️ And yes, I too, want to grow them all !!!
I started my Kitchen Apothecary because of y'all, thank you for giving me the courage to do it. I love it and feeling better being off my medicine and doing herbs
By the title I thought you were going to be talking about just kitchen herbs and their medicinal properties. Sage , marjoram, even parsley and especially oregano, plus many other 'kitchen' herbs are definitely worth putting in a longer video. Thank you and Blessings to you both.
I can attest to this. As a self proclaimed natural kitchen witch, my spice and herb cupboard is quite extensive, and will continue to grow as I expand my medicinal garden/ apothecary 🥰 thank you for giving me the courage to follow my instincts and to continue to learn and expand my inherent knowledge
I have just found your channel a few weeks ago. I am absolutely loving all the things I am learning. I am very new to learning about herbs. I am a registered nurse and have learned mostly about western medicine. I now work for an integrative provider and I am so incredibly interested in learning all things natural! Thank you for doing these videos and sharing your wealth of knowledge. I can’t wait to start my home apothecary!
An integrative provider. Wow! How do I find one of those? I love my doctor, but sometimes traditional medicine doesn't have the answer. He once looked at me and said, "You're one of those people they write textbooks about!" Also, he's a smart guy, but the tools in his toolbox can create a whole new set of problems.
I have to say... What your mom said about the herbs saying, "What about me?!" almost brought me to tears. It reminded me to stop trying to not listen to them. 🙂 Thank you.
Thank to y'all, I've started drinking herb tea I have asthma the worst, I bought some from the store just to see. Raspberry zinger I felt better before cup was gone slept like a baby so I am working on getting herbs to help with breathing and making tea
My sister forages mullein and plantain, dries them, and stores them in jars. When anyone starts having any issues that involve the lungs, she makes them tea. It really helps.
I so enjoyed this video, a great break down to get started, this really cleared my head to help me get started, since I am new at it. Thank you Ladies !!! ✝️💟
Can you do a show about ‘Throw It Out’ How to tell when herbs/teas/remedies are spent/too old/needing to be swapped out for fresh... color, age, ‘best by date’, etc. and ‘when in doubt, throw it out’? I made an herbal medicine first aid Kit and then never needed it until many of the remedies were out dated 😔😢. I reminded myself that that was a good thing 😅😂 It was hard to throw away all that work 😉 Thanks for sharing 💝
Chicken Math😂😂😂all I can say is, “yeppers”! I have a TEA CUBBY, all my herbs, ( grown and foraged) for our daily needs and uses. I really enjoy you and your Mom…if my Mother was still with us. She would definitely be one of your biggest fans. Collecting Raspberries Leaves, Rosemary and my Mints today. My new neighbor mowed all the Mullein and Thistle; so convenient. Have to find a new foraging spot…
speaking of mullein. I processed my leaves just this week and got the chest and throat effect. I had air dried the leaves for like 2 weeks the did the last moisture in the dehydrator. I had to take my dehydrator outside to finish the job. I basically medicated the entire house. hehehe. AND I've had my Dad add the dried leaves to his tabaco and it seems to help there too.
I'm not good at making good tasting tea. But, I do use herbals in my meals. There was a time when I couldn't stand Rosemary's aroma. However, once I learned the benefits of it, it is a sweet smell to me, and I love it. Just like Tulsi. My husband couldn't stand it, but when the wind blew over it that aroma was so sweet...um, he makes sure I grow it with my herbs. He loves it.
I started with plantain, and it was my gateway plant lol. Getting more into foraging now and stumbled on your channel. Such great info and awesome vids. Thank you for sharing with us!
I have dried Elderberries. Could you pls elaborate on what/how I can use the dried berries to make tincture or syrup. Maybe I missed the video you already showed. Thanks for all that both of you add to anyone's home apothecary - much appreciated during these questionable times.
Both of you are such an inspiration, please keep making videos. I'm learning so much from what your sharing, you guys are true blessings, and my biggest inspiration to create my own home apothecary.
Thank you including Mullein and the smoking of it Mrs. Honeystead. Smoking Mullein helped me completely stop bronchitis in it's track within 5 days of begining it's use Mam
I can totally see a “beginner kit” on Etsy… ya know.. in all that free time you’ve got 😂 I also now have a herb garden growing in pots on my front porch! It started with garlic and honey this past winter with my boys and their constant sore throats and then the next thing I knew I was harvesting dandelions like a crazy person
I'm at the beginning of this journey. Decided to start with culinary herbs i can grow and easily foragable perennials that grow naturally right here. Purchasing ones i can't that i want to use to make my own cleaners and hygiene type products.
I trust you are so appreciated in Virginia and other country settings with strong communities. You are so blessed! SW Baltimore has been very threatening to me, not even letting me have company. Stay safe in beautiful Virginia.
I really love watching y'all ❤. How I started building my home apothecary is going to the local apothecary that has bulk herbs and each payday I give myself $10-$15 to buy herbs an ounce at a time. Within two months I had a really good collection started and the refill as needed. An ounce of most herbs all but fill a pint size jar some like mullein almost filled a qt jar. So your starting out with an amount that is useful. This year I have purchased many seeds and will be growing many of my own herbs, which I'm really excited about. God bless keep up they amazing job y'all are doing.
I'm one of the 10% that can't do Valerian. It relaxed me, I went to bed, then it was like I drank a quart of coffee, was up for 5 hrs...UGH! Not crazy, just couldn't sleep. I'm the warm dry person, Valerian from what I found out is for a cool wet/moist person.
Oh my goodness, this has been one of the most wholesome and interestingly informative videos. Thank you for creating this. And the bright smiles of you and your mom make this even more lovely. 😀
THIS is the one I’ve been waiting for!!!💫💫 Thanks So Much!!!! Can’t wait for part 2!❤❤ QUESTION - on the herbs that do clearing of systems - is it expected to feel crappy at first? Makes sense that if it’s clearing the toxins are moving through the body and make you feel yuck…. But sometimes I worry is it the clearing process or I’m I reacting in a bad way to it🤷🏻♀ is there a general time to give something a chance…. Like a couple of days - a week - before giving up on it? I’d rather know I’m going to feel like crap for 2 days then be so much better - than not try it. But need a guideline on for how long - research hasn’t brought even general knowledge. Thanks!!💚
It’s amazing to me how herbs truly do speak. Someone will tell me what is going on with them and the herbs almost just jump off the shelf at me when giving advice on what to start using. 💙
Thank you. I love everything you both teach. It’s all so incredibly helpful and so interesting. I’m growing so many things. Even the ones that are said to be bad for people like me that have a thyroid disease. I’ll grow them for my family ❤
@@mellowlou8900 I’ve seen lemon balm horseradish, Mullen, echinacea, scullcap etc etc. I can’t remember all of them but I want to find out exactly why I can’t consume them. How much of a risk is it etc.
I am so appreciative to find these two ladies. Their videos have inspired me to finally start digging into my herbal medicine, making more herbal remedies, and expanding on my knowledge of herbs. I'm so excited to be going to the next stage out of just teas and grow, harvest and process my own herbs via my own garden ❤ Im going to start a journal to keep a record of how herbs are helping me. Also,cooking with herbs have made me a better home cook and enjoy it more!❤
I wish I knew you two , these discussions are so up my alley, I feel many people I’ve met might use some herbs on occasion, but to me they are part of a bigger lifestyle and overall health regimen 💜 always enjoy your videos
New subscriber here! Thanks for all this valuable information that you’ve shared. I’m definite going to watch more of your videos. I’d really like to get started with herbalism 😊
I love yarrow but had never used it for bleeding. Well I was grabbing camping gear out of the closet and noticed blood everywhere - turns out a camping knife had fallen out of its sheath and I had cut the end of my finger off. So one handed I grabbed the yarrow capsules, opened one up and dumped the powder on a towel, shoved my bleeding profusely finger into the middle of the yarrow and wrapped it all up holding gentle pressure since it was cut her not powdered. After 10 minutes it wasn’t hurting so I carefully looked in the towel - no more bleeding. I gave it a few more minutes then rinsed it - all the yarrow came away and I could see the sliced off end but no blood and no pain- none at all. It healed quickly with no further pain or bleeding even when I hit it - that hurt a bit lol. So I keep yarrow always in my kitchen and home.
This is by far my favorite presentation from you thus far. That being said I’m a new subscriber and much more to view. But this is an awesome presentation and learned so much. Thank you.
Pls know that mulberry trees-white, red, black- have free melatonin in the tips of leaf about an inch from tip down the leaf. Imo, this melatonin makes one sleep longer, but when one awakens can jump into tasks with less sleepy lag time. Hence,i have coined the title "cocoon sleep"😊! God bless!
I picked up my medical herbalism book to read up on a few herbs, and came across a chamomile hot compress to help relax tense muscles. I cant wait to try. Thank you for what you do here. So informative.
Thank you. Very inspirational. I just started my apothecary with chamomile, catnip, lemon balm and echinacea. I was able to find these at my local home improvement store. Not sure how it will go but we shall see.
When it came to smoking mullien I was so pleasantly surprised!? I hope I didn't detect any sense of awkwardness? Would love to know more about smoking herbs...😏 not being cheeky and talking about that one. Love you guys!!
When we were discussing mullein at a workshop there was an herbalist mentioned the benefits of smoking mullein and I made a mental note about using it this way.. honestly I never thought about it again until this last round of bronchitis. I was apprehensive as I don’t smoke but was willing to try … the interesting thing was after coughing there was a cooling effect I did feel in my lungs and it was soothing.
Thank you for sharing the fact that you can indeed smoke mullein..everytime I suggest it to family or friends they look at me like I've got 3 heads..and please continue to share small apothacary suggestions it helps so much thank you I also really love the smell of yarrow..to me it smells like good ole fashion bag balm
HI you two! Awesome channel!! I am sure this question was asked a 100x or more times. How long have you been studying herbal medicine? Ya'll got it down real good. Thanks for what you are doing. Pam from Minnesota
Oh my goodness puh-LEASE do videos on herbs for gut health 🙏 I got sick with norovirus a little over a year ago and wild herbs from my yard along with rhubarb saved my gut. Learning how to heal from that with herbs was fascinating and I want to know more!
I LOVE seeing you and your mother sharing information with us. You packed so much valuable information here. Thank you and God Bless. QUESTION: Can elderberry be consumed daily? I might be confused but I heard that it should only be taken when you feel sick.
Check out our online herbalism course- school.thewhisperingwillowfarm.com/offers/ggYWznWJ/checkout
So I got: chamomile (careful if allergic to asters), tulsi, stinging nettles, echinacea (not for long term use), elder flower and elderberries (good for pollinators), 3 mints (catmint/catnip, peppermint and spearmint) could be too strong for some people, mullein (careful of breathing it in) (tea, or smoke) it's an expectorant, oat straw (avena sativa) (milky stage tincture or tea), skullcap (for sleep), valerian (knocks you out), lemon balm (easy to grow, good for anxiety, lift spirits, helps with psychosomatic symptoms), yarrow (stops bleeding), marshmallow root (helps with gut health)/broad plantain (good for gut health).

@@TheHoneystead I'm glad to see that. I'll be watching 😀
@@TheHoneystead Oh, excellent! I too would find that very helpful.
I've infused garlic and ginger into raw honey and it is super helpful for coughing and soothing the throat.
My favorite!!!
I wanted to try orange peel and ginger in honey!
@@TheHoneystead I'm gonna have to try it also.
I do ginger, garlic, turmeric infused honey. Adding a citrus would be a great addition!
So glad to see Mama back!
I love your mother one here (if I’m right that she’s your mom) she’s expressive and descriptive and beautifully words it all- comforting ❤

She's back!!!! Hi Bridgett! I hope i got that right lol If not Hi momma Honeystead!
I think it's Brigitte. I'm pretty sure that the Brigitte Miller who replies to a lot of the comments is Mama Honeystead. So glad she's feeling better!
When you said that the herbs call out to you and you want to have them all, I totally understand that!!!
I am so glad I found your channel and I'm so grateful that you guys are willing to share your knowledge. It's awesome to see mom back, I love ya'll 😁
Tulsi and Marshmallow root are delicious as a steak rub, too!! I've been making our own rubs for steak, pork, and chicken.

Hi mumma, love watching the channel when mumma and daughter are together teaching us about herbs , stay well and thank you
I was thinking about that, what a great relationship. I wish I had that with my mom.

@@TheHoneystead yes please
When you are growing your own herbs or foraging, is there a book that you could recommend for how and when to harvest and prepare them?
I believe they use Peaterson's Field Guide. I hope you receive this information.

Oh my goodness puh-LEASE do videos on herbs for gut health 🙏 I got sick with norovirus a little over a year ago and wild herbs from my yard along with rhubarb saved my gut. Learning how to heal from that with herbs was fascinating and I want to know more!
I’m just starting my herbs.
I think that valerian is the one that the pied piper used.
I LOVE seeing you and your mother sharing information with us. You packed so much valuable information here. Thank you and God Bless.
QUESTION: Can elderberry be consumed daily? I might be confused but I heard that it should only be taken when you feel sick.
I love chamomile tea also it helps me sleep 😊
Note to self: becoming an herbalist is like becoming a Pokémon trainer.
Gotta catch em all!
Oregano and thyme are good to drink with honey. You have to try food 6 or 7 times before appreciating it.
