Chaga is one of my favorite fungi to add into my daily routine, it has many lovely medicinal properties and even better… it tastes delicious!!!
when using any herb or mushroom, please do your own research to make sure that Chaga is right for you!

Violet racing a Curly Haired Pig is so cute haha. I’ve never seen a pig with hair like that! What a funny scene and your dog is sweet. I love my animals too
100,000 subscribers!!!!! Congrats
Thank you 💛💛💛
adaptogens are amazing. they saved me over the past few years. I try to tell people how effective they are but people usually want an instant fix and dont want to stick to something over a long haul and give the remedy a chance. ashwagandha and rhodiola have helped me deal with some heavy stress and im very thankful for them.
Oh they are sooo amazing for sure!!!! I love ashwagandha!!!
❤
Yep love the Violet
Chaga is found on birch trees. I am fortunate to live in Northern Michigan, and have been quite successful at finding it here. I enjoy the tea, but chaga is high in oxalates, and can complicate my existing kidney issues.
Yes l was going to correct her too, only found on birch trees in Scotland.
Morning Violet, Kaylee. Mug up at the Honeystead. 26 F and dark a 5:37am here in central New Hampshire. Thanks for the info. Here in New Hampshire Chaga grows on Birches, White and Yellow birch. I found about 90% on yellow birch, Betula alleghaniensis. Harvest in winter when leaves have dropped. Try to harvest only the external parts and not the base that is in the tree wood. The chaga will continue to grow. I find a sharp pruning saw works well, although many chaga 'noses' grow at heights and a wack with a stick can bring them down. I brew my chaga on a cool corner of the woodstove so it can simmer and steep for hours. Make sure to check the water level with long brew times. My favorite is Chaga with maple syrup, but lately I have been adding honey and Turkey tails for a bit of a savory flavor. About chickens, I have been thinking about Manuka's. I have mink, weasels, fishers and bears here, all notorious for getting into chickens. Thanks for the farm tour, I always love to see your animals. Take care, peace, Brice
Congratulations on 100000 subscribers
I love your Apothecary I would pursue Herb Ology if I had something like that but I live in a small house and I have a small apothecary and I’m continuously learning about herbs and I love it
I'll have to check Hob's book, but I think I read that the immuno properties are available in the water soluble way and the cancer/tumor fighting properties are in the alcohol extraction. All winter I keep a pot of chaga going on the wood stove (switching out chunks as it gets too light) and use that 'tea' as part of the water when I make a pot of coffee so it's in there every day! :)
I’ll hit the books again to double check as well :)
I just made a chaga tincture in vodka and also I found an abundance of turkey tail on my walks. I made a tincture out of that. I'm going to do a double extraction. It's amazing the abundance around us. Now I see healing plants and fungus everywhere. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 thanks for sharing.
There is nothing like "Sounds of the Farm" like having chickens around. Soothing to the soul, along with Mushroom Tea.
Best sound in the world
I just love Violet.
Sweet violet
@The Honeystead my favorite memory from our visits to your farm was during the beekeeping class when Violet came over to me and put her paw in my hand. She sat there for what felt like 5-10 mins just holding my hand. My heart melted. You and Brigitte are great, but Violet.... she's the best.
We all want that mug!
Thank you for your videos.
Just today I was saying gosh I need to go buy more chaga, I miss everything about it.
I use most of those same mushroom tinctures in my coffee every morning too!
I use tinctures of:
Chaga
Reishi
Lions Mane
Turkey Tail
Those chaga pieces are massive!
SOOO NICE!!!
Also, those pieces of chaga are reusable too. Especially ones that big!
Chaga - the Grandaddy of the shrooms!
Would like to see a video on you and your coffee every morning. Always enjoy the videos. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much, I found you guys after I already ordered my bee's for spring and had started gardening but you have gotten me into tintures and I love it, so thank you
I've foraged for and used chaga and reishi for years. I know I'm preaching to the choir but there is healing in the forest. I'm enjoying a chaga , reishi , cranberry drink as I write this. I just started using reishi recently , in tinture form because of what I've heard about it's sleep enhancing properties. I sleep ok , but after reishi I sleep great and usually have very vivid dreams. Also getting up to speed on turkeytail , lionsmane , and several other medicinal/choice edibles to add to my tincture products. I don't sell publically and probably never will. Every year I get a few new "regulars" and that keeps me busy enough. Oh and chaga cranjuice is my energy drink when I'm out foraging. I'm no spring chicken either and regularly haul out 50 lb packs.
I sure do miss foraging for Chaga in the Alaskan wilderness when I lived there!
Love that farm. Makes you feel good. Saw Sean James selling that tea. Had never heard of it b4. So happy to see you doing it so we understand what this is. Love the vlog.
I make a chaga tea with rose petals and cacao or chaga, peppermint, and cacao. Top it off with some homemade almond milk. Yummy!!!
Oh, and ThanQ for reminding me to start making my Chaga tea again!
watching this while brewing tea self made from my late great aunt while designing my farm that I am moving to next year - life sometimes feels like a fairytale
Awesome!!!
Awesome. Thank you for the book recommend.
Thanks for the info on Chaga! I've been meaning to learn more about it.
Hello Ladies. I love your channel. I have a question if you don't mind. My local store is selling hives and bees and kits for raising them. What do you recommend by way of a newbie getting started. I have absolutely no clue how to raise bees but would love to learn and to get started as soon as I can afford to. Hence my issue. I am starting a homestead and of course that and my family come first, but goodness I would love some truly fresh, raw honey to go into my cabinet. Again, Love your channel. I am into herbs pretty heavy too, especially medicinals. I am learning all I can. Be safe and Love well. Kelly
Favorite from the very start….great idea on the marking to keep track of the number of brews…great information on the goodness of chaga
I love Chaga, but it's soooo expensive here. Thanks for this method, I've only done it one way by soaking the Chaga in hot water over a couple of days.
I'm so happy you mentioned keeping it in the freezer and using it again. That's what we do too and each cup is just as good as the first!
Yellow birch is what we harvest chaga from. We do a double tincture and put a tablespoon in our coffee once a week. We have a good bit of chaga we harvested that we haven't processed yet so I am going to try it as a straight tea!
Thank you for explaining this! And thanks for the book recommendation. Living in Alaska we have lots of birch trees and Chaga growing on them. I have yet to forge my own but I will be doing that this summer. I do have a piece my friend gifted me, just didn’t know how to use but now I do! Thanks!!!
I’m sooooooo jelly!!!!!!
The Last Alaskans: Next Generation has shown cutting Changa off Birch trees and making Tea for Health. Even in the Winter. Very cool.
It’s best picked in spring
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. James 1:17 KJV
Thanks for that information Mrs! 4 new American Chinchilla kits in the box this a.m. here
Love your videos!! Is Violet a Cane Corso? I have 4 and they are the absolute best dogs.
Hello Kaylee. We recently found your channel and are loving your videos. Your homestead is lovely and the apothecary is beautiful ❤. Just wondering how you add the mushrooms to your coffee? Is it in powder form? Thanks so much!!
Great video thanks ❤
Sorry to change this subject w/a question. Could you help me, please? Is there a way to preserve pine needle tea or the needles themselves for future use? I had to have a 60ft. white pine cut down because it was hollow w/ants and going to drop anyway. I really don't want the medicine to go to waste! ThanQ so much!
Wondering what everyone's top crops are that you'll be planting as we begin planning?
Awesome video ! I’m into researching about mushrooms now they are so amazing to learn about …gonna check out that book you recommended 👍. Does it just store in the jar naturally or did you freeze dry it ?
Did you ever freeze dried your chaga tea? I will tryouts and powder this after.
We are planning on making an order through McMurray is there a link that will give you credit?
Sell us some chaga mix tea!
How can I order from you
I use to have access to Chaga. Ex son in law use to go get it off a tree. But I can't remember what tree they grow on.
Where is it that I could buy chaga like you have in your jar?
Is your suggestion chunks or does the powder work as well? Does it lose any constituents grinding it into a powder? Have been reading more about medicinal mushrooms and would like to try out just not sure which is best. Thanks 😊
I use both! I like the powder in my coffee :) the chunks make a great tea!!!
Thanks! Grateful for insight.
What breed of dog is Violet?
Just discovered your channel....and I absolutely love it! However, specifically in regards to this one, I don't see you addressing the potential side effects someone with a medical condition "could" experience such as people who are diabetics or have a blod clotting issue.
I am always very encouraging for people to do their own research on herbs or mushrooms prior to using them. I believe that it will make individuals better at herbal medicine if they do take the time to look it up themselves. :)
@@TheHoneystead I totally get that...but you have failed to address that in this particular video. Just saying.
@@at8121 hmmm normally I don’t miss sharing that, well it’s in the video description. The other thing that I will add is that there are soooo many things that are bad for individuals that don’t have any precautions on them. Kinda crazy really if you think about it.
Do you know how long this mushroom lasts I found one years ago and have it in a brown paper bag in the garage. Not sure it’s still good.
I think I have seen some of those on our oaks at the end of the property. I thought they were just part of the tree.
Oh that’s exciting!!
Interesting about chaga. Do mushrooms have any benefits for eye problems?
Look up Reishi :)
You're gonna have a lot of blue eggs!
I LOVE those animal races!!
Who does?
Can you simmer it on warm in a crock pot overnight?
Absolutely!
Crack eggs in a pudding tray, put them in the freezer then store them for winter.
First you had 100k tomatoes now you have 100k subscribers . . LoL
