Just wow...I normally never leave comments but you are incredibly next level and sincere...I wish you was my brother..i have been suffering with digestive issues for about 20 years...I just recently moved to the west coast and I have hundreds of these plants in my back yard!!...I love you...thank you....I will definitely try this out...please continue sharing your knowledge with us....🥰
I absolutely love your videos! They are fun and informative. I only wish that more people would be open to all of the knowledge and beauty this earth provides for everyone! Keep up your AWESOME teachings! Namaste'🌱💚🌿
Oh cool! I also offer gratitude and A few long strands of my hair. I didn't know at the time it was something that people should do. It just seemed right. Like sharing.
Dear Yarrow, I love what you do for us. A big thank you! But, behind of your holistic principles you must see "the beautiful" of God, the only One you have to show the gratitude for this things which make you health and happy. With love, Nina
When I was young (about 70 years ago) our neighbor picked our Oregon grape berries each year and made the most delicious conserve. I have done my best to recreate her recipe and its pretty good.
Thank you so much! So funny I had no idea this was oregon grape - I have been playing with this plant since I was a child. We would often make "brews" in random jars with the berries using sticks to mash them and rain barrel water as we played outside. At Christmas I was always sent to collect the leaves to add to some greenery at the table. I have a whole other level of respect for this beautiful plant after watching your video with my daughter, and now she will grow up knowing it's amazing spirit. I had always ignorantly assumed oregon grape would be a vine!
I am literally going thru all of your videos and writing everything down. Putting it all in a big "reference book" for my family, should we ever have to go hunting for cures during SHTF. Im also stocking the plant already processed and gather the seeds, roots,etc so i can grow my own once the purchase of my land goes thru.
I used to watch this video when I lived in Sacramento CA and dreamed about living near this beauty. And here I am living in Bellingham WA, very close to Vancouver Island and if anything goes wrong in here, I know where to I am going to escape to, Vancouver Island.
Another good plant to use on wounds is the dried flowering part of the common ""weed"" known as plantain .It helps to stop bleeding and stimulates tissue growth . I've used that alongside with St. John's wort roots for foot fungus issues when combined with bag balm and allowed to age a little bit .
I love your respect for the plants. I've been watching all kinds of your videos trying to gain herb knowledge. I wish I lived out on the West like you! Is Ohio a state where we could grow beautiful plants and herbs like you harvest and grow in your videos? Also, my ND suggested Oregon Grape Root with Echinacea for my son to move his lymph and it WORKED like magic!
The berries remind me of eating sour candies when I was a kid . A much nicer alternative and so abundant on Vancouver Island! Thanks for exploring the potential of this wonderful plant Yarrow :)
have you tried red huckleberry berries? that is for sure what they remind me of, or sweet and tarts. I think they are perfect just as is you don't have to add them to anything just freeze them and use them when you want since it only takes about 5 mintues for them to defrost.
Thank you Yarrow, I have just recently found your youtube channel. I have found Ganoderma for you in the past and still have a great enjoyment spending time in the forest.
I now keep the bark thanks to you! But before I knew better, I peeled off the bark to throw away and only used the root. My familly used the tea for healing from infection of all kinds! It always worked. I can only assume that the bark is super potent! I think the root has a lot of medicine left in it.
thank you, interesting how the yellow is the colour of the medicine, used for digestion and liver function, which is influences by the solar plexus chakra which is also yellow, also I think it should mention that if you are pregnant or would like to be it is advised that you should not consume this plant. thank you for the video Yarrow
I know Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid lost my password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Dylan Milo Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
one time when I was a kid we put a whole bunch of weeds in a huge pickle jar with kombucha, and a small amount of apple cider. we forgot about it. and 4 years later I was bet to drink it. so I did. it was amazing. tasted bitter and semi alcoholic had lots of oregon grape berries in it. I drank a shot every morning until it was gone. It was like a herbal mud water. but I swear I felt happier and cleaner? it was awesome
Love your vids and the scientific backup.... I'm about as spiritual as a lump of coal but still love your enthusiasm in what you believe and your way of sharing knowledge.
Thanks for the comment and support. As a note it takes coal to make Diamonds. No need to feel or be spiritual to deepen your connection with plants. best to focus on what you can observe, feel, taste and smell, first, then you may notice all sorts of insights that the plant has to share.
You're welcome, I appreciate that it takes a lot of time and effort to produce these videos and that the financial return must be minimal in respect to the knowledge imparted - a rare thing in modern society. Botanical power I have never questioned - your particular method of subject delivery I find easy to digest - not stuffy but given with a desire for others to embrace. I thank you for this - this is the only way for humans to progress - knowledge and understanding.
Thank you for offering something other than goldenseal!!! I've watched stand after stand disappear over the last fifteen years, even though there are alternatives...
The berberine is also in the bark of the branches. It is not as strong a medicine as the bark of the root. I once had Giardia and the Oregon Grape root was slowly eliminating it, using a high quality tincture, and one day I decided to take the raw root of the bark, and ate the bark raw from about an inch of the root. It was very quickly clear to me (Giardia gives one clear feedback on such issues.... nuff said) that it was a LOT more powerful than the tincture. I was living surrounded by it in the forest. I took the raw root bark and it wiped out the Giardia a lot faster than the tincture.
😟No captions for the deaf or hearing impaired... I recently found your channel and literally can't get enough. I've always been like a kid in the woods and I knew mother nature had a plant for just about everything. So when I was always in the woods I would always take notice in the plants and wonder what was good for what, and wanted to try and taste different flowers and berries but didn't have a clue what was poisonous.. I wish I would have thought to take notes so I could remember all this marvelous info.. at least with the ones that had captions. Thank You for the information. I'm loving it.... Doubt you ever see this comment though.
ouch!!! Golden seal almost extinct! Yes Yarrow did say that. I urgently petition you all to simply put it back on the Globe friends. This is why we must give thanks. So we are all more aware. Thanks for mentioning and all your hard work....
I just recently discovered your video channel and love how you make it easy to understand how to safely use wild plants and herbs. I know salal grows near Oregon grape and wondered about its uses as an herb. Also you mentioned devils club. It would be great to get some lessons on these two plants. Thanks so much! Jim.
thats awesome info so sad about the goldenseal becoming so rare though ...i love the berries on the oregon grape you gave me an idea for a for an oregon grape mead .. thanks !
This video helped me with A project of a state and my state project is Oregon and I half to right the organs flour and lot of other Things too. This is Amanda's daughter My name is Jazzalynn and my sister is in the corner her name is Rylean.
This is amazing. I made jelly with it the other day but I had no idea you could use the rhizomes! I know what I'm doing in September :) I live in Kelowna so I see a lot of them!
if you pull the root out you can cut half of it off and slip the rest back in, dump a little water on if its dry. not only does the plant spread by its roots and will simply grow back anyway, the cutting you made has a 50-90% likelihood of just rerooting
loved this! your amazing!!! I have a huge oregon grape out front and was wondering if I could use it. not only did you explain the safety you showed me how to harvest! Thank you!
Thank you Yarrow!! I watched your video and had a wonderful harvest afterwards. Would Oregon Grape work for the stomach flu or is it more geared toward bacterial infections in the intestinal tract?
Thank you so much for your help. You might want to check this out:. Veterinarian secrets dog coughing. Watch the last half for info on Oregon grape root.
I like the video and enjoyed the knowledge that was shared as well as the talk about forest bathing. Thank you. : ) Not everyone who walks through the forest or goes "hiking" is getting all the benefits that they could because they're just focused on the destination, or on making the trail as fast as they can. Slowing down and paying attention to the sights, sounds, smells, and changes in energy is truly restorative. Giving respect is health promoting as well. But...please don't everyone go out and start removing Oregon Grape from the forest; please remember to harvest ethically if at all from wild places. Especially if you are purchasing medicinal preparations of this plant, do your due diligence to make sure that it was ethically harvested or better yet intentionally grown for harvest! Here in Oregon there are reports that entire stands of Oregon Grape are being destroyed by harvesters. It's a fairly slow grower, so it's no easy recovery for the plant community when entire stands are dug up for harvest. As important a plant it is for promoting human health, it's even more important for the forest dwellers themselves.There's no reason that you can't grow your own Oregon Grape to harvest as you would many other herbs; it is not difficult to grow, at least in Western North America. : )
Thanks for sharing! Very informative! I can't help but notice all the downed trees around you. That is happening all over. Is that because of the white rot fungus killing the trees from the inside out? It is a concern of mine. I just wonder if it will spread to other plant life, I hope not. It's good to see you connect with nature!
I have been using the plant on my skin for rosacea and taking internally for painful bloating for about a week now, and it really seems to be working. From the reading I have done, I am thinking maybe I have heliobacter pylori in my system. My skin does seem to clearing up quite a bit. First time I put it on, all of the reddish areas swelled like a balloon, but now there is only a little bit of redness when I put it on. So-called age spots I have been developing in the same areas seem to be reducing as well.
I remember that when I was a kid, people would ask me why my face was all red after I would take a hot shower, so obviously this is nothing new. Parents had issues with fungus, psoriasis and eczema. I think a lot of aging is actually just building up persistent infections that become increasingly difficult to treat.
Lol. The plant is like, “bruh... the tobacco was weird... your stinky hippy hair... no, just... no.” But hey, the info on the alkaloids is super interesting!
Yes he is special person . Blessings to you 🙏
I have yet to come across a Herbal Jedi video that wasn’t primo!!! Thanks for what you do Yarrow!
Just wow...I normally never leave comments but you are incredibly next level and sincere...I wish you was my brother..i have been suffering with digestive issues for about 20 years...I just recently moved to the west coast and I have hundreds of these plants in my back yard!!...I love you...thank you....I will definitely try this out...please continue sharing your knowledge with us....🥰
You have a spiritual respect for the other life forms/meds.. much love❤✌
I absolutely love your videos! They are fun and informative. I only wish that more people would be open to all of the knowledge and beauty this earth provides for everyone! Keep up your AWESOME teachings! Namaste'🌱💚🌿
WE LOVE YOU YARROW!!!
I love all forest even sagebrush
Thank you for your help with this. I'm a spikey protective empath myself. Blessings to you and yours.
Oh cool! I also offer gratitude and A few long strands of my hair. I didn't know at the time it was something that people should do. It just seemed right. Like sharing.
First few seconds and I love this man's work already.
Your saving the world one herb at a time
Thats it! I picked some... now I just have to clean it up & make something. Really excited 😄thanks
Thank you for the video, this is great information. Have a great day.
Mother Nature knows what we need
The plants are beautiful beings and so are you! Thank you for this inspiring video!
Dear Yarrow,
I love what you do for us.
A big thank you!
But, behind of your holistic principles you must see "the beautiful" of God, the only One you have to show the gratitude for this things which make you health and happy. With love, Nina

Happy herbal-ling with your family... ✨🌿❤️
I am literally going thru all of your videos and writing everything down. Putting it all in a big "reference book" for my family, should we ever have to go hunting for cures during SHTF. Im also stocking the plant already processed and gather the seeds, roots,etc so i can grow my own once the purchase of my land goes thru.
I hope they start practicing now rather than later
Thank you for sharing. We have that plant in New Zealand, Love your video's.
This the exact plant I need right now and it's all around me. Awesome.
I used to watch this video when I lived in Sacramento CA and dreamed about living near this beauty. And here I am living in Bellingham WA, very close to Vancouver Island and if anything goes wrong in here, I know where to I am going to escape to, Vancouver Island.
Thank you Yarrow 😊 love the videos!

Thanks alot for praying for those healthy healings plants .love your show can't stop watching.

AMAZING video. Thanks for sharing 😊❤👍
I found Oregon grape growing wild in the back 40. It's everywhere now!
Last year I made some really cool Oregon grape ink by boiling and straining the berries after mashing them and mixing in salt and vinegar.
We would use them to dye thread...
I love forest bathing on my property! Yes!! I love my home❤️
Love ❤️ so important to thank them!
Thank you so much for this information. Love this plant.

thank you!
Real men go barefoot
And thank God for the herbs he created for us.
Thank you! I just harvested here in the New Mexico Sandia mountains but it's May, and I'm not sure if I harvested too early.
there was another berberida near most of those oregon grapes there I see~ that achlys vanilla leaf
I can say from personal experience that it is a powerful antimicrobial and even anti inflammatory
How long will the shavings keep? Thank you for your fascinating, informative presentations.
Thank you Yarrow!! I watched your video and had a wonderful harvest afterwards. Would Oregon Grape work for the stomach flu or is it more geared toward bacterial infections in the intestinal tract?
You rock!
well filmed my friend
imho,most outdoor people do unaware on forest bathing,it is just a "new name" to make it a hype i think

West Coast forests, hmm? I need to find an equivalent in Michigan! There's plenty of wild grape (I have no idea of the Latin) around here.
You do have wild grape on the east coast and you also have spice bush and we dont on the west coast. I want one super bad.
