    When I was young I remember my Mom asking my Pediatrician (at an annual visit) if she needed to be giving my sister and I a vitamin. I loved his answer. He asked her if she was feeding us fresh veggies and fruits. She said yes we grow a garden every year (and her brother supplied us with fruit from his orchard). He said that's good, do you feed them good quality meat. She said yes we raise our own cattle (her brothers raised chickens which we traded some for beef and her mom raised laying hens for eggs). He basically told her that he only recommend supplements to people that didn't want to eat a healthy diet. I wish we had more doctors like him but that was more years ago then I care to admit and the doctors today don't really care to study nutrition.

    Heidi, I too struggled to grow organic tumeric root then one day I discovered if you moisten them and put them in a snap lock bag, leave an end of the bag open a little you create like a mini greenhouse for them which makes them sprout. This method also works for things like Chestnuts if you are wanting to grow those as well

    Occasionally, I make myself a treat with cacao nibs and coconut oil & shredded coconut, mixing with crushed chia, flax seed, and hemp seeds. I add a little honey for sweetness. After forming the mixture into balls, I place them in the freezer so they solidify. Then, I roll the mini balls into cocoa powder to coat the outside all around. The coconut is filling, and satisfies my sweet tooth. TY, Heidi for your super great ideas on ways to stay healthy.💗

    Heidi, I have been making powdered greens for a number of years now. I have a nutribulletRX due to diaphragm surgery. I do not make drinks as much as I used to, but I add the greens to just about everything I do. This year has been bad as I am battling a bunny who thinks that I planted just for it. I put up cloth last night and so far, seems to be working.
    I grew Amaranth for my chickens last year and they were not interested until it flowered and then they devoured it.
    Well, when I clean out the coop, I put the mess all in a pile and it composts beautifully (a little high in Nitrogen for the garden - so add epsom salts) - but this year, it is growing Amaranth - lots of amaranth. And, I grew red chard for them and they were not real interested - but I thought it was pretty for a salad and started picking some to dress it up - well, it is delicious. Don't think I will ever even consider kale (tried it - no no). I take my crops during the seasons when there is too much for me and I clean and dehydrate (and yes, I dry them out some before to save time). They are all kinds of mixes from red lettuce to endive - about anything - except parsley and spinach (I do them separately). I just put the year on the jar and keep using it in everything - my mushroom dishes, mashed potatoes, eggs, etc. If you read all the charts, I could never eat enough of it (not concentrated like this) and get enough nutrition. OH and the king and queen of greens is parsley and pretty easy to grow with no bunny 😞
    BTW, did you know that bunnies are MUCH faster than even German shepherds. Really fast! I read many years ago that parsley has more nutrition per spoonful (or any measurement) than anything else you can eat. You do not have to eat the curly thing on top of your piece of meat - just powder it and into every pot of beans or casserole or stir fry, etc.

      They also found that many of the nutrients are destroyed when cooked too hot, and for long periods of time.
      So watch out for that.
      They recommended cooking at a low boil for less than 30 minutes.

      But hopefully, the light cooking process will not claim too many nutrients.
      As I understood it,
      it's just a "very light cooking" of it, and this helps a lot with stomach and digestive issues vs. consuming it raw.

      There are a lot of plants we wouldn't eat. But if you shop somewhere like True Leaf Market, they're not going to sell seeds labeled "microgreens" if we shouldn't eat them.
      They also sell kits for people getting started. But I can tell you that peas, buckwheat, sunflowers, radishes, brassicas (cabbage, broccoli, etc.), basil, and salad mixes are all great.
      I don't bother with beets because although they're tasty and have big seeds, they produce sprouts and greens so small it isn't worth it to me to grow them.

    Couldn't find a prenatal vitamin I was satisfied with so I mostly just eat the best I can (from my own garden and the store) with a few basic supplements on the side. Doctors say I'm the healthiest they've seen in a while.

    This video showed up in my suggested videos today the timing is perfect. I have been taking magnesium supplements for a few years and absolutely need them, but hate having to rely on buying them. Just eating my organic garden greens has not been enough. I have found a good source of organic almonds at our farmers market and will make myself a blend of dehydrated greens for my evening tea. I do not eat much bread, but have been thinking of baking my own again, since the local bakery no longer makes my favorite sourdough barley bread.
    I have had no luck growing ginger or turmeric and keep trying. I did manage to grow moringa. I planted 6 seeds, 5 sprouted. I gave one to a friend. One died, my chickens got to one, one is surviving and fortunately the one in a pot is doing well. I plan on bringing it inside this fall.
    We are so pleased to be as self reliant as possible, this year more than ever. Thanks for all your very informative videos. I learned a lot from my grandparents and great grandmother and from books, but you fill in many blanks.

    Hi Heidi, lots of good info, sounds like we all need more magnesium. I've never tried growing turmeric but I do grow ginger but it only does well indoors. Breadseed Poppies are easy to grow and if you need any seeds let me know. A friend told me to spread the seeds in the fall and that has been the trick to getting them to germinate, only catch is they migrate during the winter months and they never come up where you want! ; ) Have a great day!

    • @RainCountryHomestead

      I have been wanting to grow poppies but keep forgetting to look into what is the best for our area. I would gladly pay you for some seed plus shipping. OR if there is anything you would like to trade for them (bar of soap, lip balm, skillet handle cover,...) I would be down with that too :D

    Heidi I know you want to move eventually. But it’s very expensive to build. Maybe this is just a suggestion and you probably thought about it, but maybe just buy some property and work it. Plant your orchard. Plant you’re not trees. Let it grow for a while. And then it can either be a bug out location or you can build on it eventually. I’m sure you probably already thought about this though but thought I’d check

    Yes!!! This is very helpful. I started the protocol from Modern Roots Life and lien you said they are real and organic supplements but I did a detox of iron and a creased my magnesium and copper and I no longer have horrible cramps anymore. I use to be anemic … battled it all my life. So I know when I have cramps I am not balanced and need an iron detox. Usually it’s in the middle of winter….slowly adding in more and more natural foods. I already love veggies but the family doesn’t as much and winters in Montana are hard soooooo supplements are good when needed just not to replace REAL food!!!!!

    With your tumeric, try growing it in a tub. There is so many vkdeos on self watering tubs. When you are growing in tubs, there are so many natural organic fertilizers that makes everything grow so good, your food grows overnight. I moved to the city and had to learn how and I love it. Yojr soil has some defeciency that your tumerkc is needing so you are not successful. If you don't want to do a self watering tub, try these natural fertilizers...

    Hi Heidi, I think it would be great if you wrote all this in a book or ebook. I would buy it, and I saw that someone else here would, too! I am helping my son move back home for the summer, but when I get home I will write down your ideas about making dehydrated greens for supplements. We can grow moringa here in Florida, so I have a bunch of it dehydrated and use it, love it, too. I haven't seen nettles growing in the wild here, though we have a lot of elder flowers and berries all over the place. So, we'll see about that one. Anyway, I'm rambling here. Even a ebooklet with ideas and recipes would be great. I make soap, too. I'd love to see some of your soap and herb recipes! 😊😁🙂💜💙💜
