Hello, fellow travellers!
Updates for Fall 2026.
Plantain leaf oil is going!
Safflowers are blooming!
Hops are hopping!
Ceremonial to***co is drying!
So much to be grateful for this year, despite the challenges of virtually no summer to speak of, I hope we can settle in for a nice, long fall for harvesting plants and creating medicine.
Next into the pot, so to speak, is stinging nettle, yarrow, dandelion, hops and hopefully, mullein from my trusty enthusiast in BC!
I am going to obtain some Alberta distilled spirits this year for my tinctures. The flavour is not as harsh as other spirits I have used.
As always I will use organic Canadian beeswax and sunflower oil from our compatriots in Europe for my balms.
New this year-mint extract and hopefully mullein oil!
Mullein oil is a proven medicine for persistent earaches! Just a drop or two will do ya!
Mint extract is just the thing for an upset tummy! Add to your favourite tea for a super boost of relief! My extract will be a combination of peppermint and spearmint grown right here in Ritchie, as all my plants are, except for mullein.
Blessings everyone!
Let me hear from you! Like and follow me and drop me a line!
