    Lovely video, thank you! I make alot of salves and body butters, we grow an extensive garden and expanding more and more with herbs and tinctures. Lemon balm is my favorite, oh the smell is just so so divine! One thing I was wondering, I usually just see people using leaves only. It seems you are chopping stems and all and adding. Is there any benefit to the stem as well besides making it so much easier on our gathering and chopping?haha

    We’ve had a freeze dryer for a couple of months (after wanting one for many years). I was wondering if freeze drying would be a good alternative to trying to keep one alive all winter inside? We live in Zone 7A., SW Missouri. Thank you in advance.

    • @HeidiVillegas
      @HeidiVillegas Před 2 dny

      Hi, Judi! In zone 7A, great news! Your rosemary should grow just fine all winter long. It will go dormant, but unless you're in a very cold micro-climate, it should make it through winter.

    Hello, you mention Aromatics International in a brand you use but when I contacted them to ask which farms they work with they could not answer this only that they " Purchase our essential oils, hydrosols and carrier oils from producers all over the world..." Do you have any more information based on your own research and interactions with the brand? I am starting my business and want to make sure I am obtaining 100% pure and safe EO for my customers and family. Thank you in advance!

    • @HeidiVillegas
      @HeidiVillegas Před 3 dny

      Absolutely! Andrea Butje who is the previous owner of the company, made it a point to in-person get to know the small farmers and distillers, beginning around 35 years ago. As her company grew, she brought Karen Williams on, and she took up the responsibility of vetting the small farms. Karen now owns Aromatics International, and the quality continues to be exceptional. I love having some favorite companies I can truly trust to turn to, and @AromaticsInternational is absolutely one of these. To sell the wide number of essential oils they have means they've got to develop a relationship with a LOT of small farms, OR do what most do....and this is the very dangerous and unsavory practice of purchasing from bulk distributors. The person you spoke with may not have been able to tell you about all the farms, but I think in the case of Aromatics International, they've been vetting farms and selling essential oils for so long, they're very trustworthy. Other newer essential oil sellers----I'd be VERY leery. Here's a list of companies I trust: healingharvesthomestead.com/valuable-resources

    • @HeidiVillegas
      @HeidiVillegas Před 3 dny

      If you use castor oil, I would cut some in with the olive oil as it's pretty viscous

    • @HeidiVillegas
      @HeidiVillegas Před 3 dny

      You could cut a bit into the olive oil, but I wouldn't use all castor oil as it won't extract as many of the plant constituents.

  • @kikiD32
    @kikiD32 Před 5 dny

    Is the oil you made to be ingested, or is it just for external use? If you can’t say, I understand. I’m just trying to understand if I should purchase some resin from Etsy to make an extract, as I have Crohn’s disease and osteoarthritis and I want to get off the biologic injections my Dr has me on. Thanks.😊

    Do essential oils degrade over time?

    • @HeidiVillegas
      @HeidiVillegas Před 5 dny

      Yes, they do. Depending on the essential oil, they have different shelf lives. The citrus and the evergreens have the shortest shelf lives, while the resins seem to last for up to 7-10 years....and then in the case of patchouli, indefinitely.

    Hello, Heidi. I’ve been interested in herbs for a long time, and love the “natural” way of doing things. I truly believe God gave us plants and herbs for our health. However, I’ve just recently started growing my own herbs and am really wanting to learn all I can. I just found you on CZcams and have purchased your school course. One of the main reasons I love your teaching is that you come from a Christian perspective. I have a question…I have a condition that makes my mouth ultra-sensitive to capsaicin. It’s extremely painful for me to eat. I’m wondering if I could use cayenne in capsule form to reap the benefits? I have a capsule maker and a source for organic cayenne peppers. (I’m going to grow my own next year.). I’ve been freeze drying them and making powder to create a salve for my husband to use on his arthritic knees. I’m hoping you can give me some guidance, please.

    • @HeidiVillegas
      @HeidiVillegas Před 5 dny

      Absolutely, you can encapsulate the powder! Thank you so very much for taking one of our courses! If you're not in Ditch the Drugstore/Family Herbalist program, that might be a great next step for you! If you are, maybe I'll see you in one of our live Question/Answer sessions!

    • @HeidiVillegas
      @HeidiVillegas Před 5 dny

      Yes, but just be sure it's truly chamomile, as there are several "lookalikes," like ox-eye daisy---and it's got a very unpleasant taste/smell and different actions on the body than chamomile.

      It depends on where and how it's grown. If it's in an area where pets or wild animals are...absolutely. If it's been sprayed with anything at all...yes. But if it's protected and not in a dirty or dusty environment, not necessarily.
