My daughter in law has terrible allergies. I made a batch of this for her. She now turns to her bottle of " snot blocker", as she calls it, instead of her pharmaceuticals that made her sleepy. Thankyou for teaching us these so very simple miracles....that are right under our noses!
I love how you use things that we are already doing. And it's kind of common knowledge to explain the things that you're teaching us like jam and honey.
It's not as common as you think. There are millions and millions of humans who don't even know how to make a cup of tea beyond Lipton's let alone infuse herbs that they just think are for cooking into honey for healing benefits.
My brother just got his own hive this year so I sent this to him. I make a mixture of honey, red onion, fresh ground black pepper, fresh garlic, turmeric, ginger root. I take a tablespoon once a day. If people around me are sick I take two tbsp today. I did get covid but only had a runny nose for 2 days.
Truely love how you are so connected to your plant family! Your gift of knowledge to your viewers is indeed so appreciated! I know I have gained and collected more info from you that I now feel more secure making these medicines!
April I am Northern Ponca and of the medicine people meaning sweat lodes and other spiritual ceremonies and I appreciate you so much mentioning not to use the white sage and even more than that we use the prairie sage in inipi ceremonies smudges and removing negative aspects. these two ladies as you would say are regarded highly spiritual and sacred. I knew I could trust you! thank you thank you thank you. this realm needs more of you. mitakuye oyasin! (all my relations)
I am just so happy i found you..i have been so intimidated and afraid to try to make tinctures and medicines, until i found you. I did feel stupid but you are an amazing teacher and have encouraged me to believe i can do this... Thank you so much for all you do!! I wish your store wasn't so far!
“You don’t have to punish yourself to feel better” thank you. Thank you for the eye salve and serum. I’m five years sober and a mother to a 1 year old Kaya. We both thrive learning from you. Namaste
Although I have been dabbling in plants helping people for sometime, you've given me the courage to delve deeper into my relationship with herbs and their properties for my better health and healing. For this I will be eternally gratefull. Thank you from Canada. You are a gift to us all.
Oh my goodness… “should get to working instead of talking… but your probably here because you like to hear me talk… so conflicting…” 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂 So fu@&ing relatable!!!
Thank you so much! In a minute I'll be out in my garden and make some sage-infused honey! And also a huge thank you for mentioning white sage - even here in Germany, people buy it from stores at ridiculously high prices thinking it is more spiritual than our garden sage, not knowing they do so much harm to the plant allies overharvested...
April, you have became my inspiration since I have found you here and IG! Thank you for all you do and for telling all of us out here that we are smart enough to do this!
I love reviewing all of your videos, even if I've seen them before. I've been working really hard this year on herbal medicines and wild crafted food as well as my traditional garden. Spring was late and frost was early, so I hope I did enough. I just want to express how truly grateful I am to have met you in the wild of TH-cam.
This is interesting. I would love to see a video of your process for straining out the plant matter, especially from the honeys, but also from the tinctures and other medicines you make. Have you made a video of the straining process? Thanks in advance.
You strain it exactly like you would pasta noodles. Use a clean strainer. However you can leave the plant material in indefinitely. It becomes an instant tea that way (spoonful of honey/sage into hot water). If you do strain, just leave the strainer over the jar while you do something else because it takes a bit for the honey to finish dripping.😄
I just made my first Sage tincture I'll be done in April write six to eight weeks right yay I did it culinary Sage I can't wait to try it you have a lovely day April
Wow, I never knew that garden sage was good for sore throats/strep throat!! /she's a wonderful plant that I've used for so many things...now a new use 😍😍😍
I bought a sage plant at my local garden center later in the season and it turns out it's doing great in my garden. Will do this as soon as I have enough. Thank you!
I just love your videos!!! Been adding dried sage to my mint and plantain and....lemonbalm what ever I fancy … to my evening tea, that way the taste is not overly strong but adds a nice flavor.
I make. Honey syrup with ginger , sage, cinnamon, and little marshmallow root. I always keep this in hand in a amber jar in my fridge, and the first onset of a cold or tickle in my throat I make a tea and it knocks out whatever I may have had.
I love you so much!!! Your videos are great and Ive been doing a bunch of these herbal things with you ! you inspire me to be more connected to nature and to myself in it!!
Hello from Australia, I have a local beekeeper which is great , I also like manuka honey (from the teatree family.) Grown in New Zealand, also leatherwood honey grown in Tasmania .Love my herb garden sage is fantastic ,, but to life of me , rosemary always dies on me , apparently one of the easiest herbs too grow ...
I love your videos. I just made a pint jar of sage honey from our garden sage. I also have been curing calendula & I made a lemon balm tincture that is in my cabinet. Thank you!
Good to know about botchulism I made garlic honey about 2 yrs ago and now I can’t use it because it’s giving me BV during menopause. I noticed I can’t eat ANY sugar during menopause.
Hi She :-) Greetings from Holland. I have a question. How can Sage a diuretic and make you sweat and also stop you from bleeding too much once a month? I have been using Sage for coughs and colds for many many years but never knew it could help with too much blood loss too. . Your video's are very helpful, Thank you for putting them online on line and empower people to make their own herbal medicines
Thank you for all your helpful information. I have tried to look up if buckwheat honey is good for infusing with sage and I found nothing. So I'm going to try it. Im hopeful it will improve the scent and add to the flavor profile.
April I want to thank you so much all your videos,I learn so much from you and I using as much as I can this plants what you are using. I would like to ask if I can use dried sage for honey infusion? I growing sage in the garden but not sure how I can use it. Thanks
Question? I have pineapple sage in my garden, what is your opinion or thoughts on using that in combination with culinary sage? Also how can I tell if the have culinary sage or white sage. I’ve tried just now to find information and it’s not clear to me the differences.. please help. It’s going to frost soon and I need to harvest. lol love all that you share with us and how kind you are. Thank you❤
Pineapple sage is good to use, white sage is a big plant in an entirely different family that you'd honestly have to specifically purchase. It also has a pretty pungent scent and won't have a square stem as it's not a mint.
This lady, April, is amazing at empowering us common folk who cannot afford expensive courses. She simplifies it all! And she amuses us as well!
My daughter in law has terrible allergies. I made a batch of this for her. She now turns to her bottle of " snot blocker", as she calls it, instead of her pharmaceuticals that made her sleepy.
Thankyou for teaching us these so very simple miracles....that are right under our noses!
Really appreciated your note on white sage
I’ve made this twice now! A simple and effective remedy. Thank you so much, April!!
I love how you use things that we are already doing. And it's kind of common knowledge to explain the things that you're teaching us like jam and honey.

Agree, same in South Africa. I grow my own White Sage but do not harvest her. I work with the leaves that have fallen naturally 🌿🤍

This is interesting. I would love to see a video of your process for straining out the plant matter, especially from the honeys, but also from the tinctures and other medicines you make. Have you made a video of the straining process? Thanks in advance.
I’m glad you asked that too. I was wondering how you get the plant out!
You strain it exactly like you would pasta noodles. Use a clean strainer. However you can leave the plant material in indefinitely. It becomes an instant tea that way (spoonful of honey/sage into hot water). If you do strain, just leave the strainer over the jar while you do something else because it takes a bit for the honey to finish dripping.😄
