Correction** Wild Bergamot is lovely for making medicinal tea… some call it (Mock Earl Grey)! This is were I got confused! Real Earl Grey tea is made from black tea and the bergamot orange which is a citrus fruit grown in the Mediterranean. :) So very excited to have it growing around our homestead!
Hey 😊👋 I'm new here! I was wondering which region you are in, I'm in North East Florida. I love your channel I found you through Jess at R&R, thank you for teaching I'm learning so much AND it's springtime my heart is about to pop! 😂
I also would like to know where you live, not exact location but what part of what state. I would love to find some Ghost Pipe to make tinctures but I don’t think they grow around my area. I heard they are hard to find. I live in Southwest Ohio so if you know if they grow around my area please let me know. Thank you ❤.
Mushrooms are amazing if you spread the spores somewhere they don't like they will travel underground, like they do, and come up in a location they prefer to grow! ❤🍄
If you decide to spread more morel spores, be sure to do it around a dead or dying tree. They feed off the root system of the tree. They love slippery elm and will absolutely explode in old dying apple orchards. I found 50 this year around a group of 3 old apple trees.
I had to laugh at the cleavers video. My granddaughter was foraging with me and she was yelling at me that a plant was stuck on her and she couldn't get it off...our first experience with cleavers!
This was nice. Tomorrow I'm going to take a walk in a park near me. I will see all that I can find. I also received 1 of the books that you had recommended. The homesteaders herbal companion.Thank you!!
I received my next book. Peterson Field Guides. I found Cleavers today in my back yard!!! There is a lot. id like to dehydrate some. Do you do that? Do you mke tea fresh? or Tincture? Can you tell that I'm excited? I even found a few classes at one of our state parks. 😊 YEAH!!!!
I like harvesting wild Turkey tail and lions mane mushrooms , then cloning them to grow at home . Been trying to learn how to ID different medicinal plays to make tinctures . Cool video
I loved this one! And just have to say your mom's doppelganger is Miriam Margolyes! My little kids both looked at each other and said, "She looks and sounds and smiles like Grandma Rosie in Balto!" 😍😂 biggest complement out there!
Wow! I didn't know that Bee Balm is Earl Grey tea!! And the Cleavers... I have something that looks similar all over the place! I think this is purselane. It's leaves are similar to jade plant. See, this is why I need to order a book. LOL!
Thanks for a great video. My wife and I harvested some dandelion here Sunday. Still learning how to identify the plants. Your all’s videos are very informative. Keep up the great work.
Just walked through the property today and found more medicinal plants! Purple nettle, wild lettuce, 2 kinds of plantain, honeysuckle, clover, as well as some other plants I need to identify. Super excited to forage them and dry them! Thank you for sharing these videos. I always look forward to watching them. ~Jamie
Love watching you forging. Makes my heart fell with gladness to see you respecting native ancestry. I realize you might have started this, not even realizing the full connection. Fancinated by the native American people. Had a shaman tell me once. Your a weird white man, you must have native blood. I told him, not that I am aware of. He said.. "Your thinking is of the wolf." That I took as a honor!
@@christopherkilian9763 though a couple of siberian huskies. He raised them. We started talking about the blood line of these dogs, and the unique traits of this breed of dogs
I actually just went out foraging also... Actually fried some dandelions today for first time and they were so so tasty!💕 I also ordered the Peterson's Field Guide and Me and Momma has foraging dates planned!💕🌿 Actually this video was the first of yours My Mom has got to see as she was here yesterday when it posted. I had told her all about you and your mom doing this and learning together, like us! She loved it!💕
@@TheHoneystead Awe..So Sweet!💕 The emotion behind herbalism and much less being able to do it with your Mom is Absolutely overwhelming and priceless, in such an Amazing way!💕 Keep being the amazing Ladies you are and being such a wonderful inspiration to us and so many others... And I am seriously considering documenting my journey to share with others too. Thank you so much as you have inspired me so much because your down to earth nature and learning motives are so similar to mine and just wanting to help others learn and grow!💕 Thank You for being YOU!😍🌿💕
@@TheHoneystead Well darn. I thought you'd come up with a neat new honey-moonshine. Though I guess being drunk and looking for mushrooms to eat might not be the best idea.
I often look around for herbs since I've been watching your videos lol I am not an expert in herbs but I see some things in nature and then research it. Love the videos.
I am loving your basket back pack. Do you have a video on that and where you got it? a back pack basket would be so much better than a hand carried one or a bucket. (which i currently use. )
Bloodroot propagates by seed very well. Carefully remove leaves under bloodroot plants and spread fine compose[1/4"] under before seed pods form. Seeds will drop and next year; babies! Coltsfoot, timestamp 6.08. You have a great spread and family. I have followed your progress, keep up the updates, Love Violet. Those mushrooms can be pretty sneaky, especially this time of year...Spring Shiitakes waking up here in central New Hampshire....next week maybe. Thanks for sharing, Brice....
Great video. I loved your farm before but seeing the streams I love it even more. Bee season ramping up here, inspected the hives all having a laying queen with plenty of eggs👏
I just learned what yarrow looks like when its just coming up! Thank you. I find it kinda funny that you're getting ready to plant stinging nettles when we've spent the last 45+ years trying to get rid of it. Last summer I found some new growth and picked it, dried it it for tea. I haven' tried it though because I forgot about it. What's a good herb for memory?
The weather there is about 3 weeks ahead of us! So nice seeing the blood root. I was on a job in Virginia found plants that was nearly 12" across! A whole hill side full of it. Can't wait to see the bees!
This video got me hooked on your channel! I think because I live in the city in Long for a more peaceful lifestyle! Also, wondering if you could share the link where you got that basket that you use for harvesting??
Enjoyed the video. Love mushrooms but they are so hard to find. I know people are finding them here. Funny to hear about the purple dead nettle. I was visiting a cousin and she was showing me some and talking about making a tea from it. I started looking around for it. I am off work this week and the weather is nice - maybe time to go on a hike and see what I can find.
I really liked learning more about the "clevers", we have them in Sweden too. Dead nettles and dandelion also. I will be trying out this thea as soon as the snow is gone. For now here are only wood anemone and hepatica. And of course colts foot. What herbs you picked in this film I might get in a few weeks.
Awesome! And thank you!! I just sowed some wild bergamot in a container this morning and had no idea what it looked like. And then I stuble upon this video. Long time subscriber btw. Since before you changed the name of the channel. Lol!
I just went out and forged the very same thing here today in Northeast Arkansas. I so enjoy watching you guys. Such a blessing having your Mom with you through this adventure. I can't wait to see everything you do. God is Good
This was really good to watch and learn more about foraging. Was that a electric kettle when you made the tea? I just don’t know what the name of it was
Oh my word. I have pulled cleavers out as weeds. Never new they were good for you. I always called it sticky grass. lol I could probably of sent you a trash bag full. Are there any lookalikes that I need to be careful of?
I have all three of those in my yard right now…the dandelion, cleavers, and purple nettle. I don’t have one of those tea making devices. Can I just boil them up and strain the liquid and have that as my tea?
Natural velcro on the farm. Who would have thought. Your farm has everything. If you look hard enough, you might find an old still over the hill and you will not have to buy your Everclear either.
Gave me some new stuff to look for in our woods👏👏👏 I planted a bunch of extra bee balm I had along our road I'm starting bees this year ...super excited...they will be here at the end of the month!!! What is the huge tea kettle thing ur using? Great video❤
My yard is covered in purple dead nettle and I was just researching about it today. So this video was perfect! I have a few questions. First of all, what do you do to wash the plants you forage? Many neighborhood dogs come into our yard…so I’d really like to clean the plants before doing anything with them. Would a vinegar soak be sufficient? My second question is what was that called that you made the tea in? Does it steam the plants on top?

Good Morning beautiful ladies!

My grandmother would go down to the timber and pick wild greens in the spring because her and grandpa loved to eat them.
Your grandma knew her stuff!!!

Break out of the winter spring, you need asparagus. It wakes out the blood stream. A real tonic.
Cleavers sticks like velcro 😀lol neat trick.
The honey bee class sounds do amazing...I looked..you're only 3 hrs from me so that's not bad!!
My 18 yr old recently said he was interested in learning to forage. This was a good introduction. I look forward to learning more
Hello Pam
I can taste the cleansing yummy..
hi very nice a video thanks
Such sweet dogs! They look like they are enjoying themselves.
They have the best life!

They use to call me Beaver Cleaver when i was younger
Enjoying your videos and learning about more wild goods to forage and what they are good for medicinally. Love that ol'green coffee pot.
We call Cleavers 'sticky willy' here in the UK ;)
Very informative video ... i like to go in to the wild for moral hunting and also we found some herbal plants here in Himalaya region ...
The sound of the water is so soothing!!! Thanks for sharing.
Love your walks your property is so abundant thank you thank you thank you 🙏 for all the knowledge!
Taking the course at The Bee Shop your knowledge keeps we learning..
Цікава штука для чаю , треба в нас пошукати .
I loved this! Thank you for sharing. I’m definitely interested in learning more about foraging.
Wow lady, that was a big jar of Moonshine you grab at the beginning of the video! Getting drunk and foraging in the woods sounds like a good time.
It’s water, I just prefer glass jars verses plastic bottles 🤣
@@TheHoneystead Well darn. I thought you'd come up with a neat new honey-moonshine. Though I guess being drunk and looking for mushrooms to eat might not be the best idea.

i make tree leaves tea usually cedar in warm pine in cold they are everywhere here...i am in bc canada
Thank you for taking it with you 😊😊

Ok, now I want to make a fieldtrip up there with the kiddos to learn some fun stuff. Oh, you poor mans budget, you stop all the fun times!

Harvested morel mushrooms, bloodroot today. From the garden asparagus, onions, shiitake mushrooms.
In the UK we call cleavers, sticky willie! The clue is in the name... (in fact, aren't they called cleavers because the cleave to you?!)
Absolutely loved this and love seeing what you do once you bring them in
Love your feelings for nature
I am wanting to learn to forge. I have a book but I wish I had someone to actually show me
Loved this so much! I knew cleavers were good and now I know how to use it! I will definitely be harvesting some over the weekend!
💛💛💛 that is so awesome!!! Enjoy
How cool! The Cleavers hang on like that! like snap peas on a fence type thing, they got like hands lol
I hope you continue having these classes so sad I can’t make it to these two.
Bergamot is good for you 🥰

Kaylee we live on the opposite side of US from you could you film the tea workshop and offer it to people who can’t come in person?
We actually were talking about that :)
Yes please!!
The weather there is about 3 weeks ahead of us! So nice seeing the blood root. I was on a job in Virginia found plants that was nearly 12" across! A whole hill side full of it. Can't wait to see the bees!
I was so happy as well! I grew up seeing soooo much of it and it was really nice to see it here on our farm 💛

try pine leaves needles ti make tea on the winter it is very delicious and makes you feel warm inside...
Eat wood sorrel or make it into a tea ladds
What a great idea to run it thru your coffee maker. Ty!!
Right!!! Awesome $1 yard sale find!!
Yes I thought so to that was genius to use the percolator! I have cleavers all over my back yard. I'll see what else I can find! Thank you.

Bergamont the fruit, not bergamont the plant is used in earl grey? Entirely different species?
LOL I should’ve definitely double check that here all this time I thought it was the herb! Regardless it’s delicious 🤗

I planted a bunch of extra bee balm I had along our road
I'm starting bees this year ...super excited...they will be here at the end of the month!!!
What is the huge tea kettle thing ur using?
Great video❤
Will the tea blending workshop be available online? Beth
We are actually discussing doing one for online!
Have you considered using a leaf blower to see a little better. List a thought.🌱🍃🌿🍀💚
I haven’t but I bet that would move a lot of the brush away.
Do you have a clear cup to pour the tea in? I would love to see the final color!
You know what!?! I don’t!! I think I may have to now 😍
"Cleave" means to stick to. Cleavers.

You can have our cleavers! Hahaha. We're over run here.
I’m picking more to make a tincture:)
@@TheHoneystead It gives me a rash where it touches me so I'm afraid to try anything with it.
Interesting, cleavers break me out when I pull it up. Like it irritates my skin. Would it even be safe for me to drink a tea like you just made?
is the lady with you your mom or grandmother? did you learn this from her?
Cleavers cleave to you
Oh my goodness be proud of that body of yours!!!
We have cleavers thats awesome what medicinal properties does it have
Natures Velcro! Lol

Can I go to? 🙂
One day I want to plan foraging workshops!
