What a gorgeous beautiful fabulous special soul. You made my morning Doug. Your information is great, your song had me smiling the entire time, and your eyes are so kind. Thank you. Thank you a million times over for this great video. It was much more than just informational, it touched my heart. May the earth bless you today and everyday. ❤️
Doug’s stories were a huge part of my early years of motherhood, long before I started studying herbs. 20 years later I met him in person while at the Gaia Herbs farm tour for retail professionals.
Sir, you are a fantastic story teller. I've been letting dandelions grow free in my garden lately; I've been even saving seeds. You did this humble plant justice. Poetic justice. ;)
Love Doug Elliot and his stories and songs. I've taken lots of herb walks with him through the years at Medicines from the Earth in Black Mountain. So grateful for his humor and wisdom!
What an adorable sweet soul you are Doug - had me smiling and yes, dandelions are so good for us. They are featured in a song from the Lost Words - Spell Songs by beautiful poets and musicians from my Celtic Isle. I have fond memories of blowing the seeds to tell the time and make wishes.
Thank You beautiful soul!🙏😊🌞 A man who took great pride in his lawn found himself with a large crop of dandelions. He tried every method he knew to get rid of them. Still they plagued him. Finally he wrote the department of agriculture. He enumerated all the things he had tried and closed his letter with the question: “What shall I do now?” In due course the reply came: “We suggest you learn to love them.” - Anthony de Mello
I've enjoyed listening to Doug at many Storytelling Festivals across the country. This is my favorite story and song from him. Thanks for vlogging this treasure!
Doug, thank you!! I love the song! I’m excited to learn the whole song and sing it while I’m in the garden. Enjoyed your knowledge and video🦋🙏🐇♥️hugs from Louisiana
You are very knowledgeable. BITTER GREENS ARE YUMMY and good for the tummy ( liver). Great tips!!! Oh and the BOOM A SONG!!!! With a harmonica!!! Your wife is a lucky woman. 🥰😜😇
Thank you so much Doug...this is an extremely interesting video. I LOVE dandelions! I've eaten the greens and love them but didn't realize you could eat the flowers. Also, drink dandelion tea. The other day I realized that here in upstate NY when it is cloudy out the flowers stay closed during the day! Thank you for the GREAT Dandelion song!!
That made me laugh that you had to weed the grass out of the dandelion bed. haha! :) Thanks for this great information. I ordered a bunch of dandelion seeds from Mountain Rose and look forward to eating them. Now I have good ideas for how to eat them thanks to your video! Fun music too! :D
Beautiful and well explained! It has changed my mind about this wonderful herb. I will remember this video as I see them in my yard. Will use them too! Thank you and God bless you!
Thank you so much for this wonderful video. Enjoyed learning more about our friend the "dandelion". Thank you Doug Elliott for song and harmonica playing. It reminds me of my Dad.
My beloved grandma used to be often bent over the lawn to pick dandelion leaves for salad... And when I was almost dead for 6 months after delivering my first baby, her voice gently whispered to me through all the layers in between the worlds "dandelion"... I got the message and asked my mom to pick me some. After 2 weeks I was up on my feet. I don't know what it was in those leaves that healed me, but I do know they heal and they deliver magic so simply and humbly...
He's awesome! I was just eating some sauteed dandelion leaves from my yard - with a few new kale and beet leaves that have been coming up) when I saw this! Most culinary dandelion seeds are a chicory and not a true dandelion (taraxacum) so you have to check when ordering. I plan on growing dandelion all year round so I can have fresh greens all year.
Thank you, that was great! What timing, too. I was just telling the spouse how good they are for you after i brought them in for a salad and he freaked out. :D
What we forget is that God provides everything that we need in the natural foods of the earth.......a natural diuretic with potassium supplementation incorporated. God is Great. Very interesting happy song.
"Dan de lions blow those seeds and make wishes for money World Peace lots of $@&*$÷×" joking but I absolutely love this it's so beautiful thank you very much
Went on one of his plant walks in Kentucky yesterday & played some blues with him last night. Entertaining musician, great human.
Oh my God, he is so cute! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and song! 💛🌱🌻

He's awesome! I was just eating some sauteed dandelion leaves from my yard - with a few new kale and beet leaves that have been coming up) when I saw this! Most culinary dandelion seeds are a chicory and not a true dandelion (taraxacum) so you have to check when ordering. I plan on growing dandelion all year round so I can have fresh greens all year.
Thanks for the tip, Allison! ~Mason
