I love Yarrow, and your Yarrow tincture which I have in my bathroom, to put on my toothbrush every morning, also your releasing oil that has Yarrow in it sits on my alter and I use it every time I go in public!! And I just want to say thank you for saying that we are smart enough and capable to make these wonderful, simple medicines! It's because of you, I now have Yarrow, comfrey, plantain, calendula growing in my garden! Thank you!❤
Thanks for the information on not using the colored yarrows. I germinated some wild yarrow seed from my home state of Wisconsin from my parent's land.. and was excited to have the true medicinal type. Then I heard a naturopath on a video say that he could tell no difference and go ahead and use the pretty colored ones. ...which sounded not right to me. You really know your stuff. I just started listening to you and I am learning what I need to learn..and taking notes so I don't forget important information. At 68 I am going forward... finally following an inner voice and knowing that I have heard in my spirit...that I would someday learn and use herbal medicine. I grew up wandering the woods and fields and I think I was on the "scent" of herbalism at a very young age.
Just found some of her in the wild and came straight here to make sure and get some info about her! thank you so much. These videos have become a make foraging class for me
Im almost 70 yrs young living in hills of East Tennessee i began watching you about a month ago I have learned so much from you. U are a amazing person XOXOXO .. Love Nanna Rebecca
Thank you. I've just found your channel (searching for info on how to treat eczema specifically Yarrow) and am gobsmacked at your knowledge sharing, Blessed be.
I found your site about 2 weeks ago and have enjoyed everything I have watched, have subscribed to your site and I will continue to watch. Thanks for all the information.
Your area looks very similar to where I live in Hot Springs, Mt. We have 20-30 below but we usually don't get above 100. Thank goodness!! I work on a Buddhist Retreat Ranch covering several thousand acres and this year Yarrow has bloomed in abundance. Now the St. Johns Wort is busting out all over. Just love it!
I love how yarrow blooms and blooms. I got a good bunch over a week ago, then went back and got the same amount today, and I can see smaller plants that haven't even started to make a bloom. She's very generous.
I found a huge patch of yarrow up in the mountains here in Australia this year and fell in love with it. I love its beautiful long, feather like leaves that come up from the base. Stunning plant.
I am enjoying all your videos.. I love your wild gathering and making medicine combos.. Please keep us "pulled in" . Information is priceless. Thanks bunches!!!
Loved this video, you are so amazing at explaining the plant, the uses for it and what to make it into. I have a patch of young fern-like leaves that i wasnt sure what it was (not flowering yet) and this video helped me identify it. Especially since you said the smell is distinct! I smelled it right away. Cant wait for it to grow and bloom. Thanks so much for your knowledge 💗
I love watching your videos. I can't wait for our wild plants to grow here in Minnesota. I am 66 and I should have done this year's ago, but better late than never. I am bing 👀 watching you, can't help it, can't stop ✋ LOL anywho thanks for being you. 💖
I have yarrow from my late mother's garden. It it still in my "herb garden," but it has almost naturalized on our property. I find it in new, different spots every year. I have a new oil infusion and new tincture sitting in my herb preparation cabinet, waiting to be finished. It makes me happy that the original plant is from my mother.
You’re such a freaking badass dude. When you said “that shit will straight up give you cancer” about deet I laughed. I love how unapologetic you are with these facts
Thank you, April. I enjoy learning about plants from your videos. I'm new at making things from herbs. I have been watching your videos for over a year now and am still learning from you. So, thank you.
Love this! Just found common Yarrow growing in my garden as I've completely stopped cutting it (to the disgust of my neighbours) and I'm chuffed as beans!!!!! Going to make tincture, liniments, elixirs and when I've mastered those ill go an try make some balms and salves. So excited xxx
I just love your videos they are so informative. I’m up in Alberta Canada. Our yarrow up here has a smaller flower and wider fern like leaf. I have a ton in my garden. Which I’ve just picked and plan to process. Hence why I came to look for your info. It smells just like honey to me.
Love yarrow. Thank you! It’s a super helpful video, foraging her at the root rather than reproductive area makes me feel like a better ally to her. Love how you connect with her. Nice meeting you both.
I am so glad I learned about yarrow from you! I read you can cook with her and she is similar to tarragon. I use the tincture while brushing my teeth etc. Thank you April!
I’m so thankful for these videos. I was a few days away from signing up for an herbal class (that was going to be a financial stretch for me) when I discovered your channel. I absolutely LOVE what you are doing and am go grateful for the work you do! Keep up the good work!
I have seen this video before but wanted to come watch it again after just finishing chapter two of your book. Maybe its my imagination, but this time, in watching the way you handle the yarrow, I can totally feel your connection with her. Now, on to chapter 3 to learn more about her. ❤️❤️❤️🌿🌿🌿
I found some Yarrow today at one of my girlfriends properties, I was so excited! My husband helped me dig up several to transplant to my medicinal garden I started this year. She had no idea what it was 😁
I went to the library today to get a few books on local plants around me. Thank you April. Honestly you're amazing and my new dream is to help you, help yourself so you can help me! My hope is to work alongside you at the Dinner Still Needs Cooking Farm.
I love how strong the yarrow plant is. She stays so strong through the winter that even the snow can't keep her down. I always think about how amazing she is when I see her black blooms standing tall through the snow
I love wild crafting yarrow and really enjoyed your video. I also brought home some plants from the mountains so now I have it whenever I want it. So cool.
Thank you for that info. Most of my herbs died this last summer/ winter. Strange heat, cooler than normal temps. My yarrow was the only one that made it thru. I've been considering putting my herbs in the ground, getting them out of pots. Now I know my yarrow should be fine with that decision. Can't say about the others. 🤷♀️
I'm delving Into wild medicinals and edibles. 2 weeks ago I mowed around 2 yarrow patches in the middle of my yard. Last week I found another big patch. So I will be harvesting this weekend and making a tincture. Thanks for all of the great knowledge, April!
I would love to see a video of the spray you mention with cat nip and yarrow in it. I watched this video quite a while ago and found myself needing to watch it again as a refresher. I just collected a bundle for my use. Thanks April 😊
I first heard of yarrow in a brewing book that it was used as a bittering in beer before hops. They found it gave you more of free thinking and heightened sex drive and when the church found out hops made you sleepy and such they made it illegal to use anything other than hops in beer in that time period
I love spending time w/ u, passing along knowledge. 😊I grow white yarrow w/ very beautiful finely feathered leaves (a friend gave me yrs ago) & 2 plants w/ leaves like the 1 u showed, but w/ bright yellow flowers the the black & gold finches like to hang out by. Looking forward to making tincture out of the former! 💚
I love your yarrow tincture that I bought from you that I got for my husband he began to feel better so I added it to the California Poppy I was taking and over all differences have been great can’t wait till my mullein gets here damn I’ll think I’m 16 again haha! Thank for sharing all your smarts and because of you a lot of us are smart enough! Thanks again!!
I love a video that mentions getting straight up shanked 😂. You mentioned everyone keeping an yarrow plant around in the garden but do you know if she grow well in pots? Would she winter indoors well? Great work, I’m learning so much! Thank you.
Haha glad you enjoy my humor😂 She'd do just fine in a pot so long as you didn't bring her inside for the winter as her roots need those cold/dormant months😊
@@sheisofthewoods good to know, thank you. I haven't found any on my property so I have seeds on my wish list at Mountain Rose Herbs when they become available again. So can I start them and winter them over in my unheated greenhouse?
I'm not sure if I've said, but I've thought about saying it a lot, I'm using your videos for my kids. I homeschool them and you're so positive and knowledgeable about plant allies, I couldn't pass up the opportunity! Thank you for all you do, from a family in Missouri 😁
I’m so excited! I Messaged you saying I live in the city and I can’t find a lot of the fresh herbs to make tinctures I’ve been going to parks preserves my sisters that live on a lot of land and I have found Yarrow and mothers wort and I am on a mission to find more thank you so much❤
I found a very large patch of yarrow a couple weeks ago while camping. I need to go this week and harvest a bunch to make a tincture and oil infusion. Im working on oil infusions for a wound salve I want to make.
Yarrow is also native to all lower 48 states. Although some consider it noxious, I find it plays nice with others under good direction. Thanks for your herb knowledge!
I found some yarrow in my moms yard so potted it up and planted it in my garden but it bloomed red. I purchased some other colors but I notice they change colors and now some bloom white. They have spread over they years are are all mixed in together. It’s been interesting watching them over the years!
This was an awesome video. Thank you. I didn't know about colored yarrow. I appreciate how you explain things in a natural easy way. You give great information. I didn't know that yarrow kept mosquito away and catnip kept ticks away.
I like when you are able to actually show us and talk to us about plants in the wild so we can learn how to identify them. Thank you!
You're so very welcome and thank you for watching!
I love Yarrow, and your Yarrow tincture which I have in my bathroom, to put on my toothbrush every morning, also your releasing oil that has Yarrow in it sits on my alter and I use it every time I go in public!!

I'm so happy to hear this! Yes we are all absolutely smart enough to do this!
Love watching ur videos. Learning the plants that grow naturally in my back yard here In the NW Oregon. I Would love to come see u in person.
The video is almost a year old.😁 Yes, I enjoyed meeting Yarrow. Thank you for the confidence I needed to hear.."You're smart enough"! 🌸Namaste
New to herbalism stumbling apon you is truly a blessing 💕
Thank you for dedicating your time to spreading your knowledge !
Thank you for being here with me to watch!!
I agree completely!
Ok, here's a comment:
I watch your videos over and over.

Early into my Herb Journey. You are so helpful and knowledgeable. Yarrow is going to be the next Lady I go on an adventure with.
Watching these in the middle of winter is the most frustrating thing. I'm looking forward to spring for once

I planted this years ago, it is in different places of my yard now... Ty for helping me identify it, I had forgotten what it was.... Janet.
I'm new to your YT but I just got your book and trying to absorb all I can! :) Thank you!

I have yet to find Yarrow in the wild here in North Dakota, but who knows?! She certainly is a beautiful plant!
Thank you for your videos!
All your videos are wonderful. Keep going. I re watch them many times to recall. Keep them coming. Your a natural
Totally appreciate you
💫❤️🙏🌱
I love the relationship and knowledge you have gained with plants and share with others...you must have had a great mentor!
I had my grandmother's until about the age of 12, after that I am my own mentor 💜
@@sheisofthewoods Grandmothers are the best mentors to instill the love of nature....and to tell us that we are absolutely smart enough to do this!
I benge watch your videos when I can. I am learning so much from you. Thanks! for sharing your wealth of knowledge. :)

Thank you so much! I now have found yarrow in back alleys where I live.
Was lovely meeting yarrow!! I love the way you teach!! You are SO SMART and one day I hope to meet you and LEARN!! 🤗
Hi from Eugene Oregon
Mine is growing again in the fall. I made a tincture and salve this spring.
Yarrow is also native to all lower 48 states. Although some consider it noxious, I find it plays nice with others under good direction. Thanks for your herb knowledge!
Thank you! I’m watching and learning. Just getting started with you but watching year by year...
Thanks for all the information! (Oh! btw, you look cool with those sun glasses!)
She is one of my favorite herbs, mostly for the scent.
I’m gonna go harvest some yarrow tomorrow! I’m gonna make a bug spray...I hate hate hate the deet bug spray.
You are amazing and I am so grateful I found your videos
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Your videos are real treasures. I cant wait to keep on learning :)
I do intend to follow you on instagram when summer slows down a bit. Thank you so much for these videos.
Thank you super cool 😎 April
