Thank you so much for watching and thank you for all your support. I really appreciate the lovely letters and emails.
Absolutely gorgeous Terri! Ah, and the cat settling down in the hammock, happy animals all around. . truly a heaven on earth you've got there!
These videos are done so well. The cats make me smile
Thank you so very much. With all the lies of the medical world as late this is truly a blessing to heal yourself from the gifts of the earth. People need to see what is edible healthy and all we have forgotten so we need not be pIll popping zombies .
Such a lovely video. I so enjoy seeing all your beautiful pets and that rock-a-bye kitty basket is adorable.
Cheeky cat took over the basket which had strawberries last year and I haven't used it yet this year.
The kitty looks like he found I nice little garden hammock!
I'll have to give this a try, to help me sleep! My father is retired now but he was a herbalist and naturopath, so I'm used to herbal tablets and tinchers.
You are living the life I've dreamt of since a child. I just love watching everything you share ❤️
Thank you Terri, I really look forward to your videos. Best wishes to you all
Such a gem! Love the cat's cradle. Just precious. Now to find some Cali Pops...lol🙂
Love this! I can’t believe I hadn’t found you sooner! Just planted my first medical herb garden and I am just learning! So need you in my life, made you family!
Wonderful. I love how you don’t overthink your tinctures, you just use common sense, and get it done! (Also, nice kitty cat keeping you company 😊)
Watching you helps me stay positive and keep busy
So glad to hear that Christa.
Just love to see you out and about, gathering and preparing your herbs. Bless you for your wisdom and for being authentic.
Thank you Lyn. I appreciate your comment. xx
Beautiful. Cutting up the plant material makes sense. Sweet animals enjoying a spring day with you.

Blessing to all at Danu's Irish Herb Garden.

It really is! I am very lucky!
Beauty herb garden and cute cats =*w*=
Terri you are an inspiration. Your videos are so calming to me. You are a wealth of information! The cradle for your fur baby was just too sweet! Ty for sharing your knowledge!!
2:14 What cosy cat 😸😻
What a beautiful setting while making your poppy tincture. The background, the table setting with the herbs, and of course that lovely cat.
Thank you Terri have a lovely week 😊
Oh gosh, cat in polytunnel box, perfect.
Love the kitty🖤
Beautiful, thank you🤗❤️🇨🇦 I loved the kitty in the wooden planter & the assistant kitty & puppies. The whole video was wonderful 😊
Thank You so much for sharing. Have a fantastic day.
Saw a bunch of California poppy when I was out for a walk this weekend. They plant it around areas that have been recently developed to revitalize the native plants. It's a beautiful color of orange and we have pink ones too.
Always a pleasure.
This was well done and full of helpful info, AND absolutely beautiful too. I loved the bee blessing and the kitty supervisor. Your true love for your land comes through the camera and is always inspiring to me.
You got cats in the cradle lol- love it!l :'D
What a beautiful, peaceful video - thank you 😊 x
Thank you Willow Grove - hope you are well!
Thank you for teaching us this wonderful knowledge.
You're welcome x
Mille steals the show in this!
Yes - i think it is her first starring role😂
Absolutely love ❤️ your videos!!!
I’d love to see more videos Terri. Xxx
just discovered your channel and I'm so grateful I get to learn from you
I love your videos......you are full of information.........namaste..........MINDY
Hi Galway calling, just subbed I seen your Plantain video yesterday and I was just amazed at all the things we dont know about all these wonderful plants we tend to class as annoying weeds. Yet are so much more, I am moving into my own property in a few weeks and will have a lovely garden space to grow a small crop of veg, so now seeing what i could do is getting me more excited. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, I will be back often, xxx Hugs Dede xx
Thank you Terry for sharing of your great knowledge it really inspire me to go on in my learningprocess, your knowledge is for me the most important in the world nowadays.
Once again thank you so much and pleace give my regard to the spirit and fairys in your garden they do an amazing job.
Thank you - I will!
I recently stumbled into your lovely little videos...I love seeing what you do and can't wait to see more. 😊 Thank you!
Very nice homesteading is something we should go back to. And it saves money for modern things( that aren’t healthy as well). You make it look someay simple and fun videos are great music is too.
Glad you enjoyed it. x
What a delightful look into your world! I love to watch your videos as you know. X
I’ve made dandelion root tincture just recently and it will steep until most probably just before Spring Equinox (September for me), and I’ll use it to kick start my body after winter.
Thank you for the information about alcohol alternatives. Good to know.
Have a lovely week
I want to be like you when I grow up ♥ blessings from Brazil
Thank you😀
Good morning Terri, and thank you and your beautiful four legged family for this lovely video:) I have Californian poopy growing and as a very poor sleeper, I will definitely try this.:) I have been collecting my thyme, lemon balm and dandelion for teas earlier. It's been so wet in England of late, but everything is growing so well. I think I have probably made my last batch of the nettle soup for this year. as they are too overgrown and bitter now, so I shall let the bees and butterflies enjoy those. I so enjoy seeing you there in your stunning part of the world. Thank you for the joy! Bright blessings :)
Beautiful video! Thank you!
Thank You Lovely video.
Very lovely
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you 🙌
Thank you for sharing!
Loved this ❤️
I realize this is almost your busiest time of year, or I suppose it to be, so, extra thanks for giving of your time and expertise. Tinctures might be my favorite form of medicine.. Green Blessings always 💜🌿🕯🌿💜
I always thought making a tincture would be a lot harder than that. This is the first time I’ve seen it actually done and it looks so easy, I want to go pick something and make one right now! Unfortunately most of my new land is covered in mugwort and multiflora rose at the moment. I have to heal and nourish my land before it can do the same for me!
It is always satisfying getting a store of medicinal plants dried and made into tinctures , balms etc. I have just dug out and put marshmallow roots to dry and been getting herbs dried for teas. Thank you for sharing your tips and advice! Enjoy harvesting!
Who is that beautiful kitty? It's so pretty and peaceful there. Blessings to all 🌿
I can hardly wait until I can do this. Praying for a place where I can. Hopefully soon. 💖
Fingers crossed!🙏😀
@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Thank you! 🤗🤞🙏💖
Loved this, thank you 🙏
Thanks for watching!
Lovely 😊
Everything is looking beautiful. If you are using 100 proof vodka there is no need to add water to the tincture cause it's mixed 50/50. If using 80 proof definitely don't want to add water cause it won't be shelf stable due to the plant having so much liquid in it. Have a blessed day. 🍀
Thank you so much for this video! I follow you from Italy 💚🌼
Wonder full earth 🍃❤️ thank you ⭐️
You're welcome.💞
Great video lovely Terri 🙏🏼
Thank you for another wonderful video .blessings to you and your green relatives 😁🇮🇪
I've been meaning to make some tinctures for a while now, thanks for the inspiration. Also your garden is looking beautiful.
Your videos are so relaxing to watch with beautiful scenery too . Lovely to see your cats and dogs and the horse and foal . Blessings to you xx
Thank you Terry, always an enjoyment to visit your channel and add knowledge to my journals. The countryside is lovely. In Joy
I love this channel. Helps me escape reality in the 3-D.
Oh absolutely lovely visit with you today. Baby fouls,kitty in a hammock and all the while a lesson learned
,in what I must say a beautiful background. Blessings to you and yours Ontario Canada Thankyou 🐝
Enjoyed this! I was eating my herb salad lunch while watching:)
Much gratitude.
I love it 😘🇦🇷 Argentina
I scattered California poppy near my apple tree and it’s just starting to come up thanks Terri
Beautiful blessings 🏴💕
I actually live in California but do not have any poppies! I would have to buy them dry as I was told years ago that since it’s our state flower we aren’t allowed to wild harvest. Great medicine Terry! It’s on my to-do list ☺️🌱👍🏻👍🏻
I'm from California, and I always thought that also. I think it was a respect thing, like not allowing the flag to touch the floor. Turns out it's actually illegal to pick any growing thing off of state land, or land that isn't your if you don't have permission. Which is basically everywhere...LOL! But poppies like anything else can be picked on your own land, or with permission, so go ahead & grow lots of them in your yard!
Ok sooo..can you do an explanation video on what a tincture, oil, and anything else is for all us dafties out here who havent got a clue please?. Embarrasing Iknow. But true. I just had to look up what a tincture was. In my humble opinion, I think some of us are in search with some sort of confused distanced hope, of a better way of helping ourselves rather than searching for more info on a subject already interested in. It may be just me. If it is, so be it. Thought I would share my thoughts. X
@@witcherwoo8938 Thanks for sharing Jo - I think you are right. I'll see what I can do. x
Always enjoy watching your awesome videos and listening to your lovely accent! Cheers from Rome as always! Btw, my sister lives near Cisco and surely I'll be sharing this wonderful info! Grazie!!
Love watching you. I miss my herb shop terribly. I made tinctures every day. When I made them I tinctured them according to the various phases of the moon, depending on whether healing energy or getting rid of something.
Another beautiful video Terri. Thank you! My grandma always had these wonderful puppies growing around her apricot tree in her backyard. It was magical to see them swaying in the wind. They always reminded me of the scene in "The wizard of Oz" when the witch sends Dorothy and her friends to run through them to put them to sleep. And now I know why..........I wonder if that is what my grandma used them for. She was from the "old country" and I learned much from her. I will start to plant them to make this tincture as a sleep aid. How much of a tincture is consumed for sleep?
love that black kitty i see on your videos a lot
That was Molly, I'm afraid she past on to kitty heaven last year x
my black kitty died a year and a half year ago too .. so heartbreaking. it was so very hard. he was 15 n had him since he was a wittle bitty baby. i got a sign for his resting place it says, "angels dont always have wings sometimes they have whiskers"
i still cry when i think about him even tho its been over a year n a half. cats are amazing. rest in peace for both mine and yours too.
I was watching closely, I hoped you didn’t catch the cats tail , when you was chopping! 😂
Love watching your videos ❤️
I liked that the camera moved to a view from above so we could all see that the kitty was safe. 💖
Glycerin is also an alcohol, but has a short shelf life. I did use it to make my CBD ‘tincture’ though.
What a very lovely and peace-filled space! Question:how long do you set your tincture before using? Also what would be the proper dose for children and adults
I would love to change places with the cat
Hello friend!
🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for sharing your knowledge...
I always make my tinctures with cereal alcohol and water.... don't know if it is better than vodka??
Big hug dearest Terri 💓🤗
Alcohol actually has water in it. If you use 100 Proof vodka it is a 50/50 mixture of water and alcohol. It is easier than trying to figure out the ratios. Love your videos!
Thanks Julie - it is a different system here.
@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Yes, sometimes I forget other countries do things much different. :) Brightest blessings.
How long do you leave the tincture soaking for, do you leave the choppings in the jar or drain them? I'm learning as I go along, love your videos (and the animals and scenery too).
Good morning Terry, do you sell your tinctures from home or on line? Thank you. Love your beautiful videos. 😍
How long does it take for the tincture to be potent? I love your videos.
Very nice video! Thanks for mentioning the glycerine substitute for the vodka. I 'm guessing you still add the little bit of water if using the glycerine. I don't have California poppies but i do have occasional back pain so what herb can I infuse with glycerine to use as a rub?
Another great video Terri! Will the glycerin last as long as Vodka? I use glycerin in my tinctures because I don't partake in Le Booze x
👏
I love your shoes! Would you be kind enough to share where you got them, please?
Found them on Etsy.
I have been thinking about making a tincture this week to help with my COPD. I have researched which herbs to use but wanted to ask about a base. I love mead and usually have it in the house, it is a fortified wine like sherry and I was wondering if I could use that rather than a sprit?
Hi beautiful lady how is the tincture used¿ rubbed on skin or how. Thanks for such beautiful work
You take a half tsp in a glass of water.🙏
If your in an area where drying is possible, do you make the tea with the California Poppy do you still use all the aerial parts?
Yes!
Terri can one use pure Irish best connemara poteen instead of vodka,I use a tincture of Cuprum Arnicus for leg cramps ,its almost instantanius 30 seconds to 1 minute, have you ever made it , great vid good camera work, glad I found your site. Plantain is my next quest. (we used to call it Soldiers when I was a kid we collect wild sorrell which does the same job of drawing out puss.into what do you decant the tincture, droppers or just glass jars?
Definitely Bill - if you can get it😀. When I have made the tincture I strain it into a dark brown bottle.
Thank you I'm delighted that I have found your site, Thank you for the reply, we have a lot in common .Oh Connemara Tír na Shí" where injured souls come to be healed.
