Oh Kate this God loving, homeschooling momma of 8 children loves you!! We live in town in a 3 bedroom house and we bought the lot behind us and converted it to a garden last year. I grew up in the country in a older horse hair plaster farm house, loving Jesus, fixing the fire, doing animal chores, cutting wood, gardening and canning. You’re fireside chats warm my heart! You keep being who Gods made you to be, and May you(we) always remember to keep y(our) eyes on what will matter forever.
I love making my own tea blends! Nov-March I have Nettle Leaf Powder, Marshmallow Root Powder and Burdock Root Powder as a tea I drink for my immune system and it works Very well for me! Since it's powder, I get a quicker boost by drinking the powders throughout and the last bit at the end vs steeping for the proper length of time to get the best benefit. I just found what works for me. I don't use any sweeteners and I like the earthiness. I do many other blends based on how I feel each time. It's loads of fun to play around. I also use many of the ones you use, including Astragalus. Astragalus is a Super Herb I wish everyone knew about and used. I learned about it from "Herbs for Pets" book by Gregory L Tilford and Mary L Wulff for my dog's health and started with a store bought tincture but then transitioned to everyone using it and bought the root from Mountain Rose Herbs in USA to steep. Thanks for sharing yours. Also, I love your sweater! Where did you get this one? (I love the Etsy Latvia sweaters and Simply Merino sweaters I bought this winter! Your recommendations are spot on!)
Thank you for sharing your approach to tea blends!! It is fun. My sweater is from Pappus knits. I love it. Glad you had suggestion with my other wool suggestions.
I'm growing calendula this yr from seed cant wait, I also have lemon balm as well is there a trick to drying them out never got this far I dont have a dehydrator. And kudos to you for fun chaos in background an trying to focus on explaining herbal tea mixes to us. That's what us moms do get through it all god bless ❤🌻
Now I’m thirsty for tea 😆 I make a similar one with hibiscus and raspberry leaves nettle etc and steep in a gallon till it’s cooled, and sweeten with maple syrup and lemons, add ice on a hot day, our fav!!
Feels like its been so looooong😅 Happy to get a video from you and I appreciate you linking the tea press! Ive been on edge of buying one but never was sure which would be worth it and now its on the way!❤
Love herbal teas! Thank you Kate for sharing your tea mixtures & what they are good for. 🤗 Going to really try to grow chamomile,lemon balm & some mint (spearmint) this year!
I love making my own teas. Also working on adding to the ones we grow ourselves. Just made 2 different versions of tea for my daughter out of my herb stash to help her clear junk from her lungs and help her lymph system drain.
Thank you! I cannot remember the last time Ive pause a video so much ^_^ So much wonderful information! What is the name of that book Marius was reading?
Kate, UA-cam is doing you wrong. I’m not receiving your notifications. I have to search for your channel every week. I’m unsubscribing and resubscribing.

Good morning! Your chaos is a beautiful happy healthy family. Enjoy!
I bet there are so many people watching that the kid background noise is so normal they just tune it out, me included!

Calendula is so easy to grow! Keep picking the flowers and it will keep producing more!

Thanks so much 😊
I find myself waiting to see your next video. I have my clabber culture ready to go. Now to try and make the cheese.
Youre in luck, next weeks video is milk and cheese centric!
I always learn something watching your vlogs. Thank you so much.
You are so welcome!
I want to learn more about growing and using herbs for cooking but mainly for medicine. Do you have a class??
No sorry, I don't have a class. I won't be doing one as I am not a herbalist, I've just used them a lot/read a lot etc. But thanks for asking!
HI . I am a new subscriber , do you have the recipe for the sourdough starter ? Thanks
If you are on Instagram I have it in my stories
@@VenisonforDinner Thank you
I recently found hibiscus tea and love it, I wish I could grow it up here. :)
It's so good! We can’t grow here either.
I love teas but I don't like to add honey or milk, today I am trying a slice of ginger candy on it...Let you noe if OK. Have a great week.
