this past few months I've had a terrible issue with kidney stones. Hospitalized, and followed by surgery 3 weeks later. Almost 1½ inch round size stone passed into urethra and had to pushed back into kidney. I found out that Goldenrod is a treatment for kidney stones and prevention of more. I had never harvested wild Goldenrod, until this month. I have been drinking gr tea everyday. dried enough for 3 quarts and made 2 quarts of tincture. it is a pleasant herbal tea. I also add ginger and cinnamon to it. Gathered from my own property. Helps as a diuretic and helps my pain issues as well.
I had double kidney stone 2 weeks ago. I passed it at home. Lol. Before that, it was 2009 in ASIA. Philippines hospital was a blessing also. I was checked out and back to work in 20HRS.
@@smartassist9700 I've passed several stones but once they are larger than 7mm in women, they require surgical or liptostripsy treatment to be broken up. I had liptostripsy 3 times. This stone was about the size of a large glass marble. It would never have passed on its own. Caused severe infection and terrible pain for over 5 weeks. Nearly shut my kidneys down, and would have cased total shut down and or damage to my kidneys. Scan showed other smaller stones also. That's why I decided to look for natural remedies to breakup and prevention of future larger stones. Once someone has reoccurring kidney stones, they tend to continue to experience them more often and oftentimes larger. So if you're using goldenrod for kidney health, I think that's awesome.
I agree. At 12yrs old I passed out - no reason or warning. 2 yrs later they found deformed left kidney. Reconstruction during Christmas holidays. Used urine bag for 3 months (even back to school in January. (Humiliated” that young. Stone inside was over 11mm across. Kidney almost gone after reconstruction. But today…. X-ray. Both kidneys huge/same size. But I had stones annually until mid 2003. Then working in Asia…. One on right side,,, wouldn’t pass. Hospital there so nice and service was awesome.

I love goldenrod. As a 3rd grader, I remember writing a poem in school about Fall. It started, "The goldenrod is yellow, the leaves are falling down. The trees in apple orchards, with fruit are laden down ." Remember, I was a 3rd grader. 😅 It had to rhyme.
I “ thrash” my goldenrod, too. Here in Quebec, Canada, they had lots of worker bees on them, they left...slowly, when I shook the plants. I just put them head down into brown paper bags and they dried in the house in about two days. The whole plant is good to use. It dissolves crystals in gout and dissolves kidney stones, too. Plus it regenerates thé kidneys!❤
Hey Mrs. H and Mr. H I'm new to your channel and I love it! Just wanted to say Lord I am not a insect person. But I'm looking to purchase a homestead there in GA. Would you have any suggestions? Currently, in NY need so warm weather lol. I love your channel Mrs. H you be having me cracking up 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you in advance and God bless you and Mr. H! Ramona
Thank you for your harvesting info for Golden Rod. I was introduced to Golden Rod yesterday by a Man named Mark who lives off his land. I even heard it helps with many ailments including dissolving the Crystal's in Gout. Happy Harvesting, Peace and Love
Beekeeper here and hoping those weren’t just bees on your flowers. The poor bees get a bad rap being mixed up with the much meaner wasps and hornets. You’re so right about the cold slowing them down and glad you got your flowers okay. We need those bees so desperately to pollinate our plants! ❤❤❤🎉
It has help with my whole family sinus, ache and pain. My granny would make use drink golden rode tea and she would put a bucket of pine straw and pines bring to boil make us put a towel over our head and lean over the steam coming off the pot. Worked every time. The tea works wonder! That an wrapping onion at the bottom of our feet to brake a fever. ❤️❤️🐩
I made a cup of tea while we were watching❤ but I have been using a tincture for almost 6 months. Because I have Allergies, and blood pressure issues. My niece makes it and she showed me it on my property. I harvested it for her along with old man's beard, and passion flowers she asked for. She has been studying HERBALIST stuff for 4 years. The results are I no longer take allergy meds. I don't have water in my feet and I can get out to the garden as well as stand canning with out the discomfort. Plus the water pills I use to take I no longer have to, so if you add all 3 it saves me 88 dollars a month. Plus labs lol. Y'all know those doctors want labs 2 times a year!
Oooooooh my goodness MRS.H I just got back to Alabama and it’s everywhere I had no idea you could do anything with it!!!! Im so blessed God gave us all you and Mr. H!!!!! Blessings y’all 💜🙌💜🙌💜
I just put 3 trays of Goldenrod in my Excalibur before I logged in to your channel ! I also hung a bunch of leaf steams and flower steams in my pantry. Unfortunatly this is my first year with goldenrod. I’ve also put up Elderberry for first time this year. I’m trying to be prepared by foraging. You and Mr. H. gives me so much encouragement. I love to see how you work as a team. My husband and I are the same way. it’s good to see other couples the same. God blessings 🫶❤️✌️
Yes I have used it for the first time a month ago. My grandson has severe problems with sinuses in this time of year. He took a teaspoon of golden rod soaked in 100% vodka. He had immediate relief in his throat and he is not an alcoholic. The tiny bit of alcohol in the loads of the golden rod worked better than prescription medications.
You need 100 proof vodka to pull the good stuff from the plants. 100 proof is 50/50 alcohol & water so it can pull a variety of constituents from plants.
SHALOM SHALOM!!!! I'm super excited about this. I recently found some goldenrod on our property...I even told our school nurse about it. Thanks so much for sharing!
I’m definitely trying this today! Just went through a bad case of gout for 2 weeks. Two sets of shots, gout meds and steroids. Finally a foot Dr later with an injection to the toe, VERY Painful and a higher dosage of steroids. I never want to go through that again!! Thank You for this information!
I watched your first video about goldenrod and picked some. As I sorted it out from leaves and flowers I noticed all the bugs. 😬. I will try to work past my ICK factor and proceed. I had no idea they were SPIDERS. 😳
There is a bunch of goldenrod growing about a tenth of a mile down the road in the middle of a field so I guess I will be taking a walk soon. I sure will since I know the owners and they won't care. Thanks again Mrs. H. Yes I've known a few people who have bought it at the store in caplets and said they couldn't stand to be without it. They had bad knees and one had tennis elbow and they really loved it. See you later @ 🏡♥️.
@@granmabern5283 chop all of it stems leaves flower boil for tea. It really helped, like olive oil rub with goldenrod infused in it. She did a lot with it. I just know I gather it every year for use especially in the cold months. Mrs. H just bring it all to memory. I just gather goldenrod on Saturday. I just pay attention to weather like Big Mommy did!❤️❤️🐩
I love how patient you are when you explain everything. You make it seem a lot easier and it inspires me! I’m hoping to find some things in my area. I’m right by the forest so we have everything from poison to pain medicine. I just need to learn how to put it together like you’re showing.🙏🏼❤️
If you're going foraging, don't forget to bring a book, app, or other way to identify the plants so you can tell the difference between the good vs. "bad" herbs.
@@nadiar.7788 Thank you so very much for sharing this with me. I really appreciate all advice and even constructive criticism as long as it’s coming from a good heart. I’m very blessed with having a wonderful husband that knows how to spot the different plants; he’s the one that gardens and we also have several books that identify plants and bugs. I’m grateful that you brought this up in case someone else interested reads this and knows to have something to help identify what you’re looking for; especially people new to foraging. The biggest thing I’ve learned from him about plants and weeds is that the weed will try to mimic what the plant looks like when it’s young. You really need to be careful because hemlock looks a lot like a completely different wild flower. So you really need to know what you’re looking for. We’ve got a ton of mushrooms in the area but I’m not confident enough yet to go mushroom hunting yet. I used to have a neighbor that was in her late 70’s and you would have thought late 50’s maybe with how active she was. She used to go mushroom hunting with her brother every year and I have never seen such large shrooms like she’d come back with. I always wanted to go with but I never asked because I knew that was their only alone time without either of their spouses so it was their thing. She would call me to come see what she got and she said that she cleans, cuts them up and freezes them in small batches for their dinners and she had enough for a year. You might think that’s not a lot then for 2 elderly people but her husband was Italian and she was German so she made a lot more Italian food and they eat them often. Thank you Nadia! You are very kind to take the time to tell me that.🙏🏼❤️Tracy®️
Mrs H watching your video makes me feel like I’m right beside you in your kitchen ! Thank you for explaining everything in such simple terms ! I love it !
I made a salve by steeping golden rod with coconut oil, straining it then massaging the oil on my sore elbow and shoulder. It was very effective for me. I've read that people who think they are allergic to goldenrod, are actually suffering from ragweed which usually grows nearby but isn't showy or noticeable like G R. I am excited to share the gout info with a friend! Thank you for the great video and information AND your joyful spirit. 💗(new subscriber)
Oh my goodness !! I remember my mom telling me to pick out my switch. It was from a pear tree. OUCH !! My legs still remember the burn as well as the lesson. Never made that mistake again. Thank God for Godly mothers !!!
@@HOMESTEADHEART you were lucky. if my father was not satisfied with the switch you brought him, he would send you back for another. if still not satisfied, he would get one himself. we learned real quick not to let that happen.
Wouldn't it be fun if every person who is struggling with inflation would show up on the white house mall and ask all of the politicians to go pick their switch? I don't think they'd make the mistake again after the public got done with them.
Thank you I am just harvesting for my first time. Already made a tincture and tea, sorting flowers now for oil then salve. I did not know about the gout benefit! I learn so much from you! Keep up yhe great training. You got me like.. I am gonna can some turkey sausage now. Lol
Mrs H, you are such a sweet lady. I love you sis! I grow hyssop and love hyssop tea. When I learned that golden rod has anise flavor, I just flipped, bc we have it all over and I never knew you could drink it. I don't like licorice but I love anise herbs. I gotta find some before it gets frozen out! I absolutely love your goldenrod meadow. It's a picture of loveliness!
My Grammy use to make goldenrod tea for us to drink when I was younger and a lot of family members drank it for kidney stones and gout. It is a definitely good for those things.
I wrote before about buying some Goldenrod from you I would like to buy enough to make a half a gallon full of the flowers at least a half a gallon if not a gallon of flowers I would love to buy some from you thank you please let me know
I read that ragweed pollen is loose and falls from the plant or blows off with the breeze, etc., whereas Goldenrod pollen stays on the plant. I can guarantee that you saw no pollen blowing off the plant as you were thrashing it, lol.
Mrs. H we are currently covered in snow here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan so I will not be able to get my hands on any goldenrod but I can hardly wait until next year to do this! Our field is covered in it and hubby has chronic kidney stones. Thank you for your amazing information! We so enjoy your videos!
Picking wildflowers is good for the soul as well. I made a bouquet of Goldenrod and Queen Annes Lace with some extra I foraged. There is something magical about picking wildflowers on a beautiful day along side the pollinators. I am hooked on doing this. These plants grow everywhere near us. Its become a favorite pastime for me. Im going to grow some from seed next season.
You mentioning the bugs I have an issue with bugs, if people knew how many bugs is allowable in our food they'd never eat. That's why you need to grow your own as much as possible. Lol
Hello... I just discovered you while searching for information on goldenrod. I love the way you present and teach -- it is very real and excellent! Thank you.😊
Great video!! We have a abundance of goldenrod & other than decorations I have never used it any other way. Can’t wait to fill my dehydrator to use this in tea.
@@arleenhunt856 I just looked at her "About" section, and you're right. There's no email listed. You could try looking at a couple other videos & see if it's listed in the description part of a different video, or you could go to Facebook & either contact her that way or see if an email address is listed on her Facebook page. Good luck... God bless you & yours🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for the additional information on this. My mother in law, now 82! now gets UTIs (yeah alot to look forward to as we get older). This will fix it. It might fix all of her ailments Lol. And, you can tell the difference between goldenrod and ragweed. Ragweed is exactly that, a raggy looking green weed.
I’ve picked my fair share of switches from the switch tree😵💫 being in a family of 12 children, that tree almost stayed bare! I’ll certainly be on the lookout for goldenrod on our property. Hope it’s not too late, temps are dipping into the 30’s🤨
My grandmother was from North Carolina and even tho I grew up in New Jersey Mom Mom was there and definitely the switch was the discipline of choice. Luckily for me I stayed out of trouble and knew better but my brother couldn’t seem to grasp the consequences of his actions lol and I had to witness it. Didn’t think much of it at the time but now it’s kind of horrifying to think that I would take a switch to the back of the legs of my children or grandchildren. It worked for me but not for my brother lol
Oh wow I didn’t know this plant was good for tea, I thought it was weeds I have some over the homestead I will cut and dehydrate some tomorrow if the Lord will, thank you for the info, God Bless you all
Our golden rod is just beginning to bloom here in Southwest Louisiana. I can’t wait to get out and harvest some in the morning. I’m excited to try teas, tinctures and salves. Thank you for your videos!
Thanks Mrs. Heart, I think I have a little of this growing here on my property. So many ornamentals but perhaps it's actually something I can use and drink in a tea.
I've never done any herbal remedies before--- And I WILL be harvesting goldenrod for teas, tinctures, and salves! I'm LOVING your videos--- you are SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH, And I REALLY APPRECIATE all of your experiences and tips ! Thank you so much for sharing!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰
Love this video! I harvested goldenrod last year to help with my husband's allergies. I made a tincture with vodka and honey. It truly helped. We shared with others and they said it helped with inflammation and kidneys. I had no idea how many benefits it had. It is a little gold for us! I did not think to dehydrate it. That is next on my list to do. Many blessings to you and Mr. H to!
I went out several times foraging for goldenrod. It is everywhere in our rural location. I decided to also cut some extra for a vase of flowers. It pairs stunningly with Queen Annes Lace. I couldn’t have bought a prettier floral arrangement. Picking wildflowers is good for the soul.
Thank you so much for this informative video!! I knew golden rod was a "good" herb, I just didn't know what or how to harvest & preserve. You make it simple and doable. Blessings to you and your family
I use “bell peppers” in everything. When I grow peppers I grow as many sweet varieties as I can. This year I grew Flavourburst bell peppers, Cubanelles, and Sweet and Pretty peppers. I dried them and pickled them. The more you pick peppers the more they make as long as pests don’t them. I have dried and used many jars of them and I still don’t know if I have enough. If I don’t I will hit up my local produce markets.
Thank you Mrs. H! You are always so helpful and informative! It’s weird for me to be calling someone else Mrs. H! Thanks what my school children called me for years😊Regina
This is fantastic. I saved goldenrod a year ago but had no idea how to use it! The reason I saved it was because I had heard it would help with allergies. Of course, we are now entering allergy season so I better get the tea kettle going! Thank you!!!
Y’all are such an inspiration for me. Mrs. H you said a mouth full when you said you use and eat your vegetables that you store because you are for real. Yes you are unlike some of the others that are only influencers. Thank you I live in Georgia too.
I like to make a goldenrod jelly. Basically, make a super strong goldenrod tea, add sugar and pectin, simmer, then can it to make it shelf stable. This way I get the benefits of it but with the added convenience of it already being prepared. Sometimes I'll take a teaspoon of the jelly and dissolve it in warm water as a quick tea. Bonus points because my kids love it :). Great video and thanks for sharing the tincture idea!
I love goldenrod. It grows wild all over our place & I have a small plot set aside for it. I use it for tea all year long, but especially during cold & flu season.
New here! My cousin has a field of Goldenrod and I thought it was a weed. I collected some a few weeks ago and hung to dry. I tried it in a tea and enjoyed it.
I glad you are showing me what to do with these flowers 🌹,you are funny and so kind, now I need to find me some of the goldenrods. Thank you ❤️❤️...Mrs. Hart...
As native Floridian in Tallahassee-I have seen this plant life long but never knew the name or it’s benefits-I am now informed- new to your podcast- thrilled see you - your husband and the successes you have with pets- farm animals and your gardens-and your knowledge of canning is informative and impressive.👍🦆🐕🦺🐓
I am so glad I came across your video. I just picked my goldenrod to dry you are very helpful. My son and daughter in law introduced me to goldenrod tea last year. Now I'm harvesting my own. I love forging.
Im using this,fresh... for my dairy goats ...its amazing for runny noses....this time of year. And Im learning it might be benificial for male goats to prevent kidney stones. Ive also made a tincture for us....people. lol ❤
Oh how I wish I had a neighbor, such as you! When I start talking about medicinal herbs, tinctures, extracts, etc and asking about what local plants/herbs naturally grow here, my neighbors look @me like I’m from another planet. Which is strange, being most of them are native (Indian), to this area, and I’m a transplant from Ga/Fl 3+ yrs bk.
So much I thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us. So much to learn so much to do and you make it so much easier. God bless you, you are the bomb!
Oh that is a beautiful teapot. You can see the beauty of your tea 😊 By the way I canned applesauce with some church friends. They follow you too ❤ I also used the Predto pressure canner to can some chicken broth. Thanks to you demonstrating its use, I wasn't afraid to try. 💪🙏 I'm canning again. 🤸
Someone was looking for luffa seeds. I referred them to go to your site. I love learning from you. If you have a electric waterbath canner please let me know.
Mrs. H, Would you consider selling this in your store?I love this herb. We don't have it in area I moved to. I use it to help my Dad with gout. It helps him tremendously.
That's wonderful, glad to hear it helped your dad's gout. If you care to, I'd love to hear back on these questions. How much did he take and in what form? Did he take anything else with it? Thanks!
This is the best process video I have seen! Thank you for breaking down a great process! I'm cracking up about the bug prevention tip!!! I have to subscribe!!!
I've been wanting to try goldenrod for a while but only could find it on the sides of the road. This year we've had some come up wild on the edge of our lawn right before the woods, so I'm going to try to harvest that this year. Thank you for sharing this method, and I can't wait until you share the tincture. I've read that it is good for many auto immune disorders, such as asthma, arthritis, and diabetes.
Thanks so much again for sharing your knowledge with us. Can you do a video on planting, processing, storing, and making a tea or tincture from it? I have wanted to grow Moringa ever since I learned how good it is for you, but I have no idea what to do, etc.

I’m hoping to find some things in my area. I’m right by the forest so we have everything from poison to pain medicine. I just need to learn how to put it together like you’re showing.🙏🏼❤️
If you're going foraging, don't forget to bring a book, app, or other way to identify the plants so you can tell the difference between the good vs. "bad" herbs.
@@nadiar.7788 Thank you so very much for sharing this with me. I really appreciate all advice and even constructive criticism as long as it’s coming from a good heart.
I’m very blessed with having a wonderful husband that knows how to spot the different plants; he’s the one that gardens and we also have several books that identify plants and bugs.
I’m grateful that you brought this up in case someone else interested reads this and knows to have something to help identify what you’re looking for; especially people new to foraging.
The biggest thing I’ve learned from him about plants and weeds is that the weed will try to mimic what the plant looks like when it’s young. You really need to be careful because hemlock looks a lot like a completely different wild flower. So you really need to know what you’re looking for.
We’ve got a ton of mushrooms in the area but I’m not confident enough yet to go mushroom hunting yet. I used to have a neighbor that was in her late 70’s and you would have thought late 50’s maybe with how active she was. She used to go mushroom hunting with her brother every year and I have never seen such large shrooms like she’d come back with. I always wanted to go with but I never asked because I knew that was their only alone time without either of their spouses so it was their thing. She would call me to come see what she got and she said that she cleans, cuts them up and freezes them in small batches for their dinners and she had enough for a year. You might think that’s not a lot then for 2 elderly people but her husband was Italian and she was German so she made a lot more Italian food and they eat them often.
Thank you Nadia! You are very kind to take the time to tell me that.🙏🏼❤️Tracy®️
It's everywhere, where I live, growing wild.
@@beccagee5905My area as well ❤️
Mrs H watching your video makes me feel like I’m right beside you in your kitchen ! Thank you for explaining everything in such simple terms ! I love it !
❤Yes, Golden Rod works great for UTI and High Blood Pressure. I drink a tea.
Loved the video!!! Thank you!!
Julie, what is an ITI?
I agree. What is an ITI?
Urinary Track Infections and BP too? Thank you for that info addition.
@@jellybean6745 - UTI instead of ITI. Thanks!!
I made a salve by steeping golden rod with coconut oil, straining it then massaging the oil on my sore elbow and shoulder. It was very effective for me.
I've read that people who think they are allergic to goldenrod, are actually suffering from ragweed which usually grows nearby but isn't showy or noticeable like G R.
I am excited to share the gout info with a friend! Thank you for the great video and information AND your joyful spirit. 💗(new subscriber)
I'll be ordering seeds for next year! Thanks for another great Educational Video!
Thank you for this video, I found some Goldenrod in my property, I'm so excited to dehydrate them....🤗
I'm so glad I found your channel! I love your videos! So helpful and inspiring!
Oh my goodness !!
I remember my mom telling me to pick out my switch.
It was from a pear tree. OUCH !! My legs still remember the burn as well as the lesson. Never made that mistake again. Thank God for Godly mothers !!!
Yes indeed. I always picked a little one & paid for it later🤣
@@HOMESTEADHEART you were lucky. if my father was not satisfied with the switch you brought him, he would send you back for another. if still not satisfied, he would get one himself. we learned real quick not to let that happen.
Wouldn't it be fun if every person who is struggling with inflation would show up on the white house mall and ask all of the politicians to go pick their switch? I don't think they'd make the mistake again after the public got done with them.
Thank you I am just harvesting for my first time. Already made a tincture and tea, sorting flowers now for oil then salve. I did not know about the gout benefit! I learn so much from you! Keep up yhe great training. You got me like.. I am gonna can some turkey sausage now. Lol
Mrs H, you are such a sweet lady. I love you sis! I grow hyssop and love hyssop tea. When I learned that golden rod has anise flavor, I just flipped, bc we have it all over and I never knew you could drink it. I don't like licorice but I love anise herbs. I gotta find some before it gets frozen out! I absolutely love your goldenrod meadow. It's a picture of loveliness!
That’s awesome!! I love anise extract.
My Grammy use to make goldenrod tea for us to drink when I was younger and a lot of family members drank it for kidney stones and gout. It is a definitely good for those things.
I wrote before about buying some Goldenrod from you I would like to buy enough to make a half a gallon full of the flowers at least a half a gallon if not a gallon of flowers I would love to buy some from you thank you please let me know
Thank you for showing us how to do this! You are such a lovely lady, inside and out.
Love the infuser tea pot!
I love my Golden Rod in honey, then just use the honey for my teas. Very good!
I read that ragweed pollen is loose and falls from the plant or blows off with the breeze, etc., whereas Goldenrod pollen stays on the plant. I can guarantee that you saw no pollen blowing off the plant as you were thrashing it, lol.
Mrs. H we are currently covered in snow here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan so I will not be able to get my hands on any goldenrod but I can hardly wait until next year to do this! Our field is covered in it and hubby has chronic kidney stones. Thank you for your amazing information! We so enjoy your videos!
I am in northern Oakland county,(thumb) we have quite a bit on the property....how much do you need/use?
Picking wildflowers is good for the soul as well. I made a bouquet of Goldenrod and Queen Annes Lace with some extra I foraged. There is something magical about picking wildflowers on a beautiful day along side the pollinators. I am hooked on doing this. These plants grow everywhere near us. Its become a favorite pastime for me. Im going to grow some from seed next season.
Mrs. H, you are just fantastic by far. I love how you are truly a blessing! Thank you for what you do!
You beat Martha Stewart by a million miles. Girl, I'm beginning to wonder what you DON'T know 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
I love this!!! I love herbs and making tinctures for natural medicine
when you are busy, quick and easy is best for everyone. thank you!!
You mentioning the bugs I have an issue with bugs, if people knew how many bugs is allowable in our food they'd never eat. That's why you need to grow your own as much as possible. Lol
Thank you Mrs. Heart for sharing and showing how you process your goldenrods🤗 blessing to you and yours🙏
Hello... I just discovered you while searching for information on goldenrod. I love the way you present and teach -- it is very real and excellent! Thank you.😊
Well done Sis. I've got a bunch a goldenrod flowers in my back yard. Now I know what to do with them. Another blessing from the Most High!
I am truly benefiting from all you guys do. Thank you so much for your knowledge, wisdom and love.
I knew about this, but this is the first tutorial on HOW to dry my herbs. We have an abundance of Goldenrod. Thank you for this help.
Great video!! We have a abundance of goldenrod & other than decorations I have never used it any other way. Can’t wait to fill my dehydrator to use this in tea.
I watched your video yesterday and your field look so beautiful with all that "gold". Went and bought me some seeds! Thank you!
You should harvest more while this cold snap is going on so you don't have to mess with the wasp and too many spiders 😁
@@arleenhunt856 use her email
Hope you’re selling tinctures and tea, especially since it isn’t growing near a road.
@@arleenhunt856 I just looked at her "About" section, and you're right. There's no email listed. You could try looking at a couple other videos & see if it's listed in the description part of a different video, or you could go to Facebook & either contact her that way or see if an email address is listed on her Facebook page. Good luck... God bless you & yours🙏🙏🙏
Where can I find this? Does it grow wild or is it planted? I always thought that’s what makes me 🤧 sneeze
@@karenbrooks9416 What makes you sneeze is Ragweed. GOD bless
Thank you for the additional information on this. My mother in law, now 82! now gets UTIs (yeah alot to look forward to as we get older). This will fix it. It might fix all of her ailments Lol. And, you can tell the difference between goldenrod and ragweed. Ragweed is exactly that, a raggy looking green weed.
This is growing all around my property right now.
Love your attitude and personality!
Joel
I’ve picked my fair share of switches from the switch tree😵💫 being in a family of 12 children, that tree almost stayed bare! I’ll certainly be on the lookout for goldenrod on our property. Hope it’s not too late, temps are dipping into the 30’s🤨
My grandmother was from North Carolina and even tho I grew up in New Jersey Mom Mom was there and definitely the switch was the discipline of choice. Luckily for me I stayed out of trouble and knew better but my brother couldn’t seem to grasp the consequences of his actions lol and I had to witness it. Didn’t think much of it at the time but now it’s kind of horrifying to think that I would take a switch to the back of the legs of my children or grandchildren. It worked for me but not for my brother lol
Oh wow I didn’t know this plant was good for tea, I thought it was weeds I have some over the homestead I will cut and dehydrate some tomorrow if the Lord will, thank you for the info, God Bless you all
Our golden rod is just beginning to bloom here in Southwest Louisiana. I can’t wait to get out and harvest some in the morning. I’m excited to try teas, tinctures and salves. Thank you for your videos!
Thanks Mrs. Heart, I think I have a little of this growing here on my property. So many ornamentals but perhaps it's actually something I can use and drink in a tea.
I've never done any herbal remedies before---
And I WILL be harvesting goldenrod for teas, tinctures, and salves!
I'm LOVING your videos--- you are SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH,
And I REALLY APPRECIATE all of your experiences and tips !
Thank you so much for sharing!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰
Love this video! I harvested goldenrod last year to help with my husband's allergies. I made a tincture with vodka and honey. It truly helped. We shared with others and they said it helped with inflammation and kidneys. I had no idea how many benefits it had. It is a little gold for us! I did not think to dehydrate it. That is next on my list to do. Many blessings to you and Mr. H to!
I went out several times foraging for goldenrod. It is everywhere in our rural location. I decided to also cut some extra for a vase of flowers. It pairs stunningly with Queen Annes Lace. I couldn’t have bought a prettier floral arrangement. Picking wildflowers is good for the soul.
Oh my, everything looks wonderful. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this informative video!! I knew golden rod was a "good" herb, I just didn't know what or how to harvest & preserve. You make it simple and doable. Blessings to you and your family
I use “bell peppers” in everything. When I grow peppers I grow as many sweet varieties as I can. This year I grew Flavourburst bell peppers, Cubanelles, and Sweet and Pretty peppers. I dried them and pickled them. The more you pick peppers the more they make as long as pests don’t them. I have dried and used many jars of them and I still don’t know if I have enough. If I don’t I will hit up my local produce markets.
Found a nice patch on our property yesterday. I'm doing the same thing you are. Thanks for the tips!
Thank you Mrs. H! You are always so helpful and informative! It’s weird for me to be calling someone else Mrs. H! Thanks what my school children called me for years😊Regina
Thank you so much for this video. I'll be on the hunt for Goldenrod as my husband suffers from gout and hates to take prescription medication.
This is fantastic. I saved goldenrod a year ago but had no idea how to use it! The reason I saved it was because I had heard it would help with allergies. Of course, we are now entering allergy season so I better get the tea kettle going! Thank you!!!
Appreciate the lesson on goldenrod! Thank you!
Y’all are such an inspiration for me. Mrs. H you said a mouth full when you said you use and eat your vegetables that you store because you are for real. Yes you are unlike some of the others that are only influencers. Thank you I live in Georgia too.
"I can't deal with them spiders!"
🤣
That would be my mom. She is terrified of bugs.
I love ya Mrs. H, you make me smile...Thank you for showing us all you know about how to do things!
❤❤❤ just bought a 6-tray dehydrator I guess three and three . Plenty of Golden Rod around the work lay-down yard like acreages of it
I like to make a goldenrod jelly. Basically, make a super strong goldenrod tea, add sugar and pectin, simmer, then can it to make it shelf stable. This way I get the benefits of it but with the added convenience of it already being prepared. Sometimes I'll take a teaspoon of the jelly and dissolve it in warm water as a quick tea. Bonus points because my kids love it :). Great video and thanks for sharing the tincture idea!
I love listening to you joke. Thanks for sharing this.
I love goldenrod. It grows wild all over our place & I have a small plot set aside for it. I use it for tea all year long, but especially during cold & flu season.
Very helpful. Looking forward to next videos! Thanks Mrs. H!
New here! My cousin has a field of Goldenrod and I thought it was a weed. I collected some a few weeks ago and hung to dry. I tried it in a tea and enjoyed it.
I glad you are showing me what to do with these flowers 🌹,you are funny and so kind, now I need to find me some of the goldenrods.
Thank you ❤️❤️...Mrs. Hart...
As native Floridian in Tallahassee-I have seen this plant life long but never knew the name or it’s benefits-I am now informed- new to your podcast- thrilled see you - your husband and the successes you have with pets- farm animals and your gardens-and your knowledge of canning is informative and impressive.👍🦆🐕🦺🐓
What temperature do you dehydrate the goldenrod? I love your videos. Thanks so much for all of the wonderful information and tips!!
Thank you so much Mrs.H
I had no idea & just learning about herbs & tincture!!!
At what temperature and how long do you dehydrate the goldenrod? ❤️
I am so glad I came across your video. I just picked my goldenrod to dry you are very helpful. My son and daughter in law introduced me to goldenrod tea last year. Now I'm harvesting my own. I love forging.
Brought back memories about the "Switches"! LOL
I’m making golden rod tea today and canning left over chili! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for all this beneficial information and tutorial. We really appreciate you
Im using this,fresh... for my dairy goats ...its amazing for runny noses....this time of year. And Im learning it might be benificial for male goats to prevent kidney stones. Ive also made a tincture for us....people. lol ❤
You are the best. You explain every aspect of how to do things.Thank you! :)
Great video.. I forget how many herbs grow wild.. thanks kiddo.. also, every seed I purchased from you germanated and grew beautifully.. thank you..
Oh how I wish I had a neighbor, such as you! When I start talking about medicinal herbs, tinctures, extracts, etc and asking about what local plants/herbs naturally grow here, my neighbors look @me like I’m from another planet. Which is strange, being most of them are native (Indian), to this area, and I’m a transplant from Ga/Fl 3+ yrs bk.
Thank you for the info I grew up with this all my life never knew what you could do with it .God bless you and your family
So much I thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us. So much to learn so much to do and you make it so much easier. God bless you, you are the bomb!
Oh that is a beautiful teapot. You can see the beauty of your tea 😊 By the way I canned applesauce with some church friends. They follow you too ❤ I also used the Predto pressure canner to can some chicken broth. Thanks to you demonstrating its use, I wasn't afraid to try. 💪🙏 I'm canning again. 🤸
Lots of food, your family will never go hungry. You are a hard working lady I am so impressed. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Someone was looking for luffa seeds. I referred them to go to your site. I love learning from you. If you have a electric waterbath canner please let me know.
Mrs. H, Would you consider selling this in your store?I love this herb. We don't have it in area I moved to. I use it to help my Dad with gout. It helps him tremendously.
You might try your local florist!
We use them as filler flowers, in fall arrangements!
Ask for Solidago!
That's wonderful, glad to hear it helped your dad's gout. If you care to, I'd love to hear back on these questions. How much did he take and in what form? Did he take anything else with it? Thanks!
Good to know there's a difference in the ragweed and goldenrod. Thank you.
This is the best process video I have seen! Thank you for breaking down a great process! I'm cracking up about the bug prevention tip!!! I have to subscribe!!!
I've been wanting to try goldenrod for a while but only could find it on the sides of the road. This year we've had some come up wild on the edge of our lawn right before the woods, so I'm going to try to harvest that this year. Thank you for sharing this method, and I can't wait until you share the tincture. I've read that it is good for many auto immune disorders, such as asthma, arthritis, and diabetes.
Thank you, sister, for the lesson. Be blessed.
Thanks so much again for sharing your knowledge with us. Can you do a video on planting, processing, storing, and making a tea or tincture from it? I have wanted to grow Moringa ever since I learned how good it is for you, but I have no idea what to do, etc.
Good to know about grout I have friend who suffers for that gonna try to look for this. That's a great honey hole finding a whole feild. Lol
Thank you so much for this video.
I have golden rod all around. Mostly as food for the bees, but now that I know this I will be putting some by.
Thank you so much for the invitation , I have Learned so very much from you , 💞🙏❤️
I noticed you repurpose the parm cheese cap for your smallmouth jars. I do as well. It’s such a functional idea.
Thank you. Really appreciate you for sharing this. Will be gathering some soon as it stops raining.
