Medicinal Herbs

There’s  something about February that just makes me happy! My winter depression starts lifting and I feel like we are in the home stretch to springtime! Yes, I know we can still have winter weather here, but I know spring is just around the corner! 

I ordered some seeds a month or so ago to replace some of my older ones. Today I placed another order for some additional medicinal herbs. I’m no expert in herbal medicine but I am taking classes to learn. I think with the turbulent times we are in we need to be able to care for ourselves as much as possible. Learning herbal medicine is one such way we can do that.

I am also not saying herbal medicine is a cure all, modern pharmaceuticals have their place and you should also prepare in that way as well. We just need to be well rounded in what do. Garner as much knowledge as you can. Knowledge cannot be taken from you… it’s priceless. Never quit learning.

If you don’t have a medicinal herb garden I challenge you this year to start one. It doesn’t haven’t to be elaborate, start small with some basics and build it up over time. Pick 4 or 5 herbs to study and grow those. Knowledge is power! Learn how to make tinctures and salves with the herbs you grow. Learn how to use them, for what and when. Learn dosages. Keep a journal with what you learn so you can quickly access the information when needed.

With all that is happening and happening rapidly we need to work quickly.. Get those seeds ordered today! Below are my 3 go to’s for my seeds.
