@@SassyQ1 good ideas!!! I don’t have the last two. This year I started planting plants in their coop and just put some chicken wire around them so they can’t dig up the plant but can munch the leaves that come through the wire. So far I have sage, peppermint, orange balm and nasturtiums!

Oh my Goddess! Thank you so much for sharing this remedy! I have needed this badly! I love your compassionate, calm and down to earth demeanor. You are a gift!
Excited for my first purchases from your store to arrive in my mailbox 📫 I ordered the little capsule filler too, i’ve been filling my capsules one by one with my own two hands for quite some time now 🙄 I’m so glad you offered the screen shot of where to order from! I feel so blessed to have found your channel April! You’re so helpful, just awesome! Oh yes, already ordered the supplies to make my own cherry/ lime electrolyte drink! It will take time to stock up on all supplies I need to make many things I’ve learned from you AND want to purchase from your store … but it will happen 👍
April Thank you so much you are really Amazing. I’m learning so much home made remedies from you. And I’m grateful for all that you do for us. I’ve made many of them, they work Fantastic. ❤🎉❤🎉🎉🥰🥰
I made a yarrow and witch hazel spray for my boyfriend who frequently shaves and trims his beard and sometimes nicks himself. Made my day recently when he nicked himself and immediately asked if I had any of the spray handy. He said he uses it as his home and it works so well.
Been enjoying hanging with you April, your laugh is infectious 😊. Been making my own tinctures and medicines for a couple of decades now…but last year our house burned. Able to save people and dogs but not my apothecary, that is a special kind of loss…now I get to start over probably bigger than before …so anyway, good stuff you’ve put out ❤😊
Just saw this again and noticed it's been a month since I put my yarrow to soak in witch hazel and I'm excited to try it on my eczema on my face! Thank you so much for your help with all these things and I especially like it when you say "and you are smart enough to do this yourself"
Hi April. I'm suffering from FPHL and my hair has become very thin on the top of my head. I've been extremely anemic and had an iron infusion recently. I started using rosemary essential oil and castor oil on my scalp but would prefer to use fresh rosemary. I'm hoping you could recommend a shelf stable spritz for hair growth and scalp. I know I could make tea daily but don't want to excessively prune my plants. I'm considering taking saw palmetto internally but would love to have some advice on other plants I could forage or grow that could help me as well, to keep costs down. For both external and internal use.
I would consider getting your vitamin C and copper levels checked because iron deficiency is actually more often than not a symptom of copper and or vitamin C deficiency. I would also just buy some dried rosemary and bulk. You could make the tea that way or you could make an infused oil that way without having to stress your plants.
Are familiar with stinkweed? Also known as artemesia found in Boreal forests. Has similar properties for skin healing but more concentrated. Our yarrow here doesn't grow as tall as those plants.
Thank you for posting this! I just asked you yesterday about puberty acne on your live q&a and this is so awesome. We have so much yarrow on our acreage but it hasn't come up yet, just the fronds are showing up. Definitely going to be buying some dried yarrow for this. Blessings to you, April!
Heard you mention this on the tea time yesterday and was going to comment there and ask what preparation of the yarrow would be best. Then this popped up! ✨ Gonna make this for my daughters and nephew!
Hi April, I see there's a question about using a tincture instead of plant material. what would the ratio of tincture to glycerin to witch hazel be? Thanks for all you do!
This is awesome!!! I know how much you love yarrow so I know you are the person to ask about this... I was researching about chamomile the other day because I love it so much but noticed when I opened the bulk bag I got recently it seemed like it bothered my lungs a little bit (granted I also was opening multiple bags of different herbs and maybe I inhaled some dust so who knows what it really could have been lol). So I was trying to see more info about the allergies with it and what not and I ended up going down a random rabbit hole of "if you're allergic to ragweed there's a whole list of plants you could possibly be allergic to." So then I continue on down the rabbit hole and I found a very weird and interesting statement LOL I was hoping maybe you knew some info about... (This does have to do with yarrow I promise lol) this article was talking about dandelion and how it is also related and "if you are allergic to ragweed, chrysanthemums, marigold, chamomile, yarrow, daisies, or iodine, you should avoid dandelion. Also it might increase stomach acid and heartburn." okay so a couple questions about this... 1. Do you find that people that have reactions to these plants mostly is because they are around at the same time as ragweed and end up with its pollen on them, or is it actually because they are related and produce similar pollen? When I was looking into that part it got confusing with the sciency words I don't understand lol. (I know it can be either since everyone's body will react differently to allergies but I was curious if you noticed any pattern with that at all) I remember when I was growing up ragweed would mess me up super bad (everyone thought it was golden rod of course lol) and I have always wanted to understand more about if the plants that are related, like yarrow, also have similar aspects to them or if its just because they grow at the same time and get dusted with pollen from ragweed? 2. Why is iodine in there? lol that one threw me off I had a bad allergic reaction to a plant a number of years ago and has since caused stupid fear over it happening again with plants I have not used yet in life.. which I'm trying to work through lol but understanding allergies more helps me to not worry as much I guess. So sorry this is so long and I know I always ask you a million questions. I appreciate you answering them it means a lot to me!
Heya, super simple answer and why I hate when people write super convoluted write up because all they needed to say is "People allergic to plants in the Asteraceae family (daisy) such as ragweed have the ability to be allergic to other plants in this genus (family)" then you'd be like ahh that makes sense! As far as feeling kinda scratchy tea dust/lung is a real thing for sure haha, but you could do a spot test on your skin with chamomile tea to see if anything happens before drinking then just try a small amount. Also, it's weird they added iodine to that list, I'll do some digging but it may have been a typo.
@@sheisofthewoodsThank you so much!!! I figured it was relatively simple but people like to get extra fancy with their articles it seems 😂 Cool I will use that trick for a few things I haven't tried yet and see how it goes! Yeah the iodine really threw me off! Of course the article didn't go into anything on it at all, it was just listed as part of the "if you are allergic to (insert list of plants and iodine for some reason lol) avoid dandelion" which is interesting. I had googled "can i have dandelion root tea if I'm allergic to ragweed" and it was the first thing that popped up from a website called mount sinai. Also I assume that if its just the pollen that messes me up dandelion roots for tea will be ok because they don't get covered in pollen being that they are under ground lol. Might help out some of my acid reflux issues I hope!
I love this one so much. I absolutely love yarrow I think everyone should have some and to have it as a spritz is just perfect. thank you so much for sharing this April you are the best.
Arpril you are amazing. I had seen one of your videos talking about the yarrow spritz so I ordered some yarrow. It just came 2 days ago. I have been searching for a video from on making it and voila 😮😂❤. Here you are. You must have more powers than you know!!!! Thank you so much for all you do. Just a side note!! My husband has copd and is everything big pharma and always reluctant of any kind of natural remedies. I ordered 1 bottle your Mullein + Reishi Synergism Capsules for him to try he actually has kept taking them and said he feels a little better. I ordered a second bottle and put them on auto ship !!!can’t wait for his next pulmonary exam. !!!Thank you so much!!
Agreed, watching how the hems practically melted away within 48 hours, feels so good lol, I used what I talked about the other day, well it actually took about 72 hours for them to totally shrink and disappear, I just go’ogled Melissa Thanderski and the relief is so worth it.
How is this best stored? Counter or fridge? Thanks for another valuable recipe. My yarrow is just setting blooms so I will be making up batches and gifting to friends.
The fact that you are human and are not afraid to show it is my favorite thing about you! Along with the amazing herbal knowledge and the willingness to share that knowledge!
That should be somewhat helpful for varicose veins, right? Are there any other options for varicose veins? I have a few showing up on my legs, and my mother in laws has them all over her legs. Hers are really bad. They have busted open through the skin.
Thanks for a great video! Curious why dried yarrow is stronger than the fresh plant? Is this because water is being introduced if we made a fresh plant preparation?
Can you use alcohol instead of witch hazel, and you said that was witch hazel with alcohol? I would imagine which hazel would be better can you tell me where you got the witch hazel? Thanks for making these videos
For the spritz, can this be made with just the leaves? Or should it be just flowers? Or both? Thank you for your wonderful videos and sharing your knowledge!
Hiya April! Would you recommend this for a postpartum spray? I’m wondering if it would be safe for the whole perennial and vulval area post birth. If yes are there any circumstances of birth where it would not be recommended? I’m also wondering about any alternatives to antibiotics if Group B streptococcus were present, but I know this could be a bigger more complex topic so don’t worry if that part is too complicated. Thank you for showing up in life!! You’re amazing ❤
You could use it 3-4 days post birth, may still sting a bit but would be good to encourage healing. I haven't dug into alternatives for that but am curious now so likely will 🤣
I know she used witch hazel and not coconut oil, but… but, does coconut oil dry out anyone else’s skin or am I the only one? I’m just really curious because so many people love and use coconut oil, but I can’t, it dries out my skin and hair… other than that I love coconut oil lol
Could do Comfrey compresses until it dissolves or drains. If it drains I'd be aggressive about keeping yarrow tincture or witch hazel on it to stop infection.
April, I have some yarrow I made into a tincture 3 yrs ago. Can I use that in a sprtizer,instead of adding plant material? I know it will be drying cause of the alcohol, but could I add alil more glycerine? Or is it just a bad idea?

I love growing yarrow. Great for soil too😊
Could you add other herbs to the spritz that would help with acne? Does calendula or rosemary help with acne?
Thank you for reminding me of this. I hope to plant some in my garden
Can I use yarrow flowers that have dried on the plant?
Do I have use the flowers or can I use the feather looking leaves to get the same effect? 😊
May YAH Bless
Love your humaness!
I love your hair. ❤❤❤
So wonderful! Thank you for showing this recipe
I love yarrow so much.. she saved me so many times from different pains in my life. .. why do so many dermatologists say they are against witch hazel?
The same reason Drs are against herbs, ignorance 😉
QUESTION: April, I can only find glycerin made from soy. Is soy safe to use on skin? I try to avoid eating it in anything.
Definitely doing this . Thank you so much . Always great information. ❤ You are an inspiration.
Agreed, watching how the hems practically melted away within 48 hours, feels so good lol, I used what I talked about the other day, well it actually took about 72 hours for them to totally shrink and disappear, I just go’ogled Melissa Thanderski and the relief is so worth it.

Thanks for another valuable recipe. My yarrow is just setting blooms so I will be making up batches and gifting to friends.
I’d like to adapt this to a nasal spray or something similar for son in law with frequent nosebleeds… witch hazel seems to strong for nasal passages?
Oh my ! Im doing this.
Thanks😊
Loved this!
💚💚💚
With the ability to tighten blood vessels I wonder if this spritz would be good for rosacea? Or would it need to be more moisturizing?
What’s the shelf life on that please.
Love your vids
You’re just precious❤
What is a good company to purchase yarrow from? Not all of the herbs I want to use are growing here.
The fact that you are human and are not afraid to show it is my favorite thing about you! Along with the amazing herbal knowledge and the willingness to share that knowledge!

Ive heard yarrow is good as mosquito repellant, do you use it for that & is this same ingredients/preparation you'd recommend?
Yarrow is great for keeping bugs at bay! Here's my specific recipe for a bug spray: ua-cam.com/video/67mh34Uct3E/v-deo.html
@@sheisofthewoods thank you 😊
Thanks for a great video! Curious why dried yarrow is stronger than the fresh plant? Is this because water is being introduced if we made a fresh plant preparation?
Not stronger at all just different, if you have access to fresh that's always the better choice ☺️
@@sheisofthewoods Thank you!!
🤞 you actually see this. I know you’re super busy.
What is your opinion on using honey as the humectant as opposed to the glycerine?
You for sure could give it a try but I'd cut the amount by no less than half so it's not too tacky on the skin 💚
Thank you so much for this!
Hey April! I'm interested in making an oil infusion that includes neem. What are your thoughts on neem? I don't think I've ever seen you work with it.
Merci beaucoup 🦋🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Can you use alcohol instead of witch hazel, and you said that was witch hazel with alcohol? I would imagine which hazel would be better can you tell me where you got the witch hazel? Thanks for making these videos
Thanks for sharing I got a question. Are you using white yarrow? Or yellow or ??
White is really the only yarrow that's safe to use 💚
❤❤❤
For the spritz, can this be made with just the leaves? Or should it be just flowers? Or both?
Thank you for your wonderful videos and sharing your knowledge!
Any will do leaves/bloom/combo of both 😊
Do you think yarrow and witch hazel would help with rosacea?
Absolutely!
Thanks for this video! Does yellow yarrow work as well as white yarrow?
Just found you on fb and you tube and loooove your content.
My question for this is how long does it last?
A few years before the properties weaken 😊
Can you please tell me where you get the large quantity of glycerin?
Check out the second link in my pinned comment ☺️
Thank you!@@sheisofthewoods
Will this also be good for excema or psoriasis?
Hiya April! Would you recommend this for a postpartum spray? I’m wondering if it would be safe for the whole perennial and vulval area post birth. If yes are there any circumstances of birth where it would not be recommended?
I’m also wondering about any alternatives to antibiotics if Group B streptococcus were present, but I know this could be a bigger more complex topic so don’t worry if that part is too complicated.
Thank you for showing up in life!! You’re amazing ❤
You could use it 3-4 days post birth, may still sting a bit but would be good to encourage healing.
I haven't dug into alternatives for that but am curious now so likely will 🤣
Would this work on cold sores or what other remedies could I make for that? Thank you for all the shared knowledge 😊
Check out my short about cold sores/canker sores ☺️
Excuse my lack of knowledge when asking this …. But does the color of yarrow matter? Is one color more potent or beneficial than another? Thanks
It's best to always use white yarrow as often the colored varieties are manipulated by man and they have an imbalance of VOCs that can be harmful.
How often is it safe to use for acne? Daily? For how long? Thank you, love your videos!
Daily for as long as you need, may be mindful to use a gentle moisturizer in the evening just so you don't dry out 💚
I picked up some yellow yarrow at a plant nursery. Is it still medicinal? Or should I only use the white variety?
You'll only want to use the white variety 😊
@@sheisofthewoods Thank you!
I know she used witch hazel and not coconut oil, but… but, does coconut oil dry out anyone else’s skin or am I the only one? I’m just really curious because so many people love and use coconut oil, but I can’t, it dries out my skin and hair… other than that I love coconut oil lol
Maybe rancid ?
Or getting old?
I watched a woman who is well versed in oils and she called attention to this
Hello, Ms. April, I'm wondering how can I naturally remove a boil from my underarm? Please help
Could do Comfrey compresses until it dissolves or drains. If it drains I'd be aggressive about keeping yarrow tincture or witch hazel on it to stop infection.
April, I have some yarrow I made into a tincture 3 yrs ago. Can I use that in a sprtizer,instead of adding plant material? I know it will be drying cause of the alcohol, but could I add alil more glycerine? Or is it just a bad idea?
That'd be fine☺️
Ty for the confidence I made it and works great!
April, do we have to yse just yarrow blooms or can we use the green? My yarrow only had one bloom 😢 Not exactly enough.
Greens work fine too ☺️
@@sheisofthewoods thank you for the quick reply. You my dear, are awesome!
Hi April ...wondering if vodka would work as well instead of witch hazel?
You could, just add a bit more glycerin so it's not too drying for the face
Sounds like this would work for folliculitis!
Any negative effects if it gets close to your vulva?
Nope you can use it down below although the witch hazel may be a touch drying.
There needs to be a yarrow scented shampoo & conditioner
I just found some yarrow I hung to dry last year. Can I still use it to make a tincture or is it too old now? Thanks
You can probably use it for the Spritz but I'd not use it for a tincture.
