  • Today we are planting onions for the first thing this year.
    Hi, we are Matt & Sara. Along with our 4 kids, our dog, our cat, 4 pigs, a lot of chickens and even more bees we have been developing our homesteading lifestyle. After over a decade on our property we are finally debt free and using our new FREEDOM to do what we have always wanted to do (be more self reliant)!

    Good morning and nice to see you both 💞

    @KCMNgardner 6 месяцев назад +1

    So glad to see you again you can make tinctures and oils from some of the herbs. Nasturtium and bachelor button are edible flowers as well as well as balloon flowers.

    So excited to see a (planting) video from you! I was ready to go do dishes but had logged onto RUclips and saw your video and had to watch that first! I hope you are all doing well. I'm looking forward to the next video! 💜

    Awesome assortment of medicinal herbs!! I did lives on many of those. Mullein is excellent for respiratory tea. Calendula is great for bee stings too.

    I was planning on starting my onions this week also. I love Livingston seeds. I purchase them at Runnings.

    @JA-mt3lm 5 месяцев назад +1

    I saw this video late, but, the medicinal herbs I 100% recommend together are-fresh picked chamomile flowers (10-20), 3-5 fresh picked leaves of
    cat nip and some thyme. Put together in tea bag for 1 cup -
    use as nighttime tea with honey if you want. Melts stress away..😊

    Thanks for the video, my first year trying to grow onions from seed and I've already learned that I planted them too deep following the seed packs so thanks for the tips. If I get any more seed I'll sow them the way you do. I know fever few can be used to help with migraines, Lee over at Kodiak Farm Bees-Lee makes a tincture I believe using the plant.
