    I grew up foraging berries with my Cherokee mother. She made elderberry jelly which I never liked. When I learned how high in vitamin C it was, I foraged some by the side of a country road and went home and made a tincture. Wow! It’s better than the expensive hard bitter supplement I was trying to choke down every day -I had chronic sinus problems and the tincture fixed that! 👍🏼

    About a year and a half ago we made some Elderberry Syrup (Elderberry, honey, clove, ginger). I diluted it down to a specific gravity of about 1.100, added yeast, and turned it into wine. After bottling it, we stored it in a nice dark place and forgot about it until about a month ago. Absolutely the best wine we've ever made. Full bodied, fantastic flavor. We're down to one bottle and I'm regretting not having started another batch or two.

    I knew elderberries were good in many ways but I've learned so much more since viewing y'all's videos. They're worth (y'all's videos) every minute. Thanks for taking the time and effort to make them. It's appreciated and y'all are too!

    Stacy excellent video. I watch a lot of videos for prepping but some go so fast and don't explain clearly.
    But your guest was wonderful explaining how to plant the elderberry planting. The camera work was excellent, the close up shots about how to plant the elderberry plants.
    Important to remember is some of us are new to prepping. So thank you for taking the time to explain and the close up shots.

    I always keep an eye out for them when they bloom wild here in Indiana. I love watching them start to fruit and ripen. Love making wine and jelly with berries. But I've learned so many other things to make with them watching your channel! Hope to be able to have a place to grow my own eventually. Thanks for all this wonderful info. I must admit Terry's berry shaker system would make processing them soooo much easier and less time consuming.

    Very interesting. Here in British Columbia we have a wild elderberry, a red one, which is poisonous if eaten raw. To use this one, I would have to learn to cook them. Probably much safer for me to get some American ones.

    In the last few years we have been foraging berries in the mountains (I live in Oregon). Last year we found elderberries, I picked a lot. I have 43 quart ziploc bags in my freezer. I made elderberry syrup, my daughter did not get sick all winter (during the school year), my son would have faired better if he had taken a shot of it as well.

    Last year I planted elderberry cuttings from River Hills Harvest. I live in West Texas which can be very hot and dry, so i was very excited when one cutting survived. This year it is doing awesome and I'm so excited to see how it grows this year. At this time we haven't had rain since August, but it is still doing very well.
