About OFF GRID with DOUG and STACY:
We moved to our 11 acres in 2011 from a large city in the Midwest with zero carpentry and farming skills. We live with no solar / wind power / public water or well. We share our adventure to a sustainable life, growing our own food from vegetables to meat. We post videos DAILY and they range from HOW TO to EVERYDAY LIFE and NUTRITION on the off grid homestead. We were city folks just like you probably and wanted to enjoy life and have more control over our food. We share food recipes as well as natural remedies.

I started a tea garden this year & planted chamomile, mint, spearmint, lavender, peppermint, sage, basil & rosmary. I don't ever want to have to buy tea again in the stores. I have a cup of chamomile every night before bed.
Thanks for the video!
I’m so excited that you shared the benefits to your garden. I’m getting it into my garden immediately! 👏👏👏
we did the same this year as well just not sure what to use our spearmint with? But yes the tea is great in the evening.
jess Carey just up the spearmint leaves fresh or dry in hot water.
Watch that Rosemary over time it will get huge!
I grow lemon balm. That makes a lovely soothing drink that helps you sleep.
I have Ulcerative Colitis and I’ve been growing and making Chamomile tea for 5 years and so far I’ve been symptom free for those 5 years. It really does soothe my gut!
Thanks for this information.
@Magic thanks so much. Sounds tasty too.
Wonderful
Thanks for that information.
It's a natural anti-inflammatory also. Works amazing.
Reduces blood sugar levels naturally..calms nervous tummies too..Grandma knew😘
I love when you talk herbs, Stacy!
Drying extra herbs is also a great way to use them all. I even hang them in my barn and add last years to the chicken bedding keeps the barn smelling a little better.
Thank you JESUS for blessing this family and lovely lady i am excited to learn from her. What a mighty God we serve.
This isbhow life should be INTENDED seems heavenly.
All Glory be to God JESUS CHRIST.
God bless you
Amen thank you jesus
Achoo!
I didn't know chamomile was a good companion plant. That's really neat. I want to grow some now for all of the reasons you explained Stacy! Thanks for sharing. :)
she lyin?
You need to write a book about homestead wisdom.
From Lil Giant Chamomile, in a lot of water, is great for colic in babies. The color should be very light because it is so watered down. Soothes the cramping, etc.
I grew some in the high desert of Arizona a few years ago. It was such a cheery, beautiful plant. I made bouquets with zinnias to give to my fellow gardeners. Thanks for the wonderful reminder. I'm gonna get some seeds!🌿😍
Thank you, didn’t know chamomile is a good companion plant
Thanks to the person that recommended this channel 👍
Yes,😃❤️👏🏼👏🏼 more of these with each herb talks, also like you showing how to mix with other herbs to create various tea mixes...etc. also the use of the sun oven as a dehydrator😃👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Thank you for sharing your knowledge Stacy❤️. Can you do one on “Marigolds” going over the different types and what they are good for. Which you would make a tincture or a salve etc. thank you in advance❤️
Great tutorial on chamomile. Did I hear you right? You put lemon balm and catnip in with the chamomile flowers for your tea? That's cool. Could you talk about those two herbs as well? Really enjoy your channel 🙂
I'm also interested in the full recipe. Great video.
Love chamomile!!
I too love chamomile...I let it just go wherever it wants in my garden but have one big patch that comes back every year. They are such happy little flowers!!! 🌼
Chamomile and lavender tea is a favorite in my house!
I am dehydrating herbs almost every day. Today are rose petals to use in my homemade vinegar for a hair rinse. I am also following Heidi at Rain Country. She is also a wealth of information. Thank you for all you do.
I have lemon balm and cat nip, don't know why I haven't grown chamomile, I love the teas
Thank you for telling us how to preserve AND use fresh herbs!
I used some in a couple of buckwheat hull pillows a few years ago. Smelled amazing!!
Thank you so much Stacy for your time in doing this teaching about Chamomile. Great for a class.
Thank you Stacy & Doug great information
What a pleasant video on Chamomile. Thank you!
As an herbalist I love seeing videos like this! Perfection! 💛💛💛
Now I'm really excited for Spring
Comments are from 3 years ago and here I am just finding you!! 🌼🌼🌼🌼
You made it 🙌
Hey Doug hey Stacy thank you for the video and I hope you guys are having a nice day so y'all stay safe now and God bless
There's and old saying, (Like the old English chamomile bed, the more it's trodden, the more it spreads). Apparently it likes to grow along paths where the soil is frequently disturbed.
Hi Stacey & Doug I love Chamomile it’s so smooth I’m growing mint I’d like extra Zucchini recipes thank you.
Am I blocked?
@@pamcolechadwell1302 I see you.
Thank you Stacy for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us
Your word encourage me to make the changes I need for myself
Peace be with you
I love chamomile. Have used it most of my life. Had a big patch on farm.
I got a garden and I got chamomile Peppers radishes spearmint leaves. And mint leaves.
German chamomile is an annual plant that grows 6 to 26 inches tall has white flowers and starts to bloom when days reach 17hours long. Start inside between march and may and plant out after 8 weeks of growing inside. harvest july on and let selfseed for next year or repeat the process every year.
this takes 85 to 105 days to bloom.
This is my first year growing my own chamomile thanks for all the information
Stacy, just watching your new "classroom" on health and nutrition. I'm 9 yrs older than you, out of work since covid. I have been trying to get back into shape. Been watching the Motivationaldoc on youtube. I think your new series will be just what I need. THANK YOU!!
Why yes I would love zucchini recipes since I decided growing so many types of squash was a brilliant idea.
Thank you, Stacy! May God Bless You, Doug and all your family!
Thanks Stacy for the information! We appreciate all of the knowledge you have concerning Natural remedies and health benefits right from the garden! Keep up the good work, and Yah bless you and Doug abundantly! Shalom to your Home!
I just received my Excalibur dehydrator now I have a way to save my herbs. I can't wait!💞
Nice pretty basket.
I used my stimulus to order a Doug and Stacy edition sun oven. It arrived last week and I'm anxious to use it.
We haven't had any sun 😞.
I've gone herb growing crazy! Now I need to learn what to do with all of it. My Oregano has taken over! Spearmint is well on it's way to taking over again this year. I'm just so happy that they all came back this year!!! I don't want all of these blessings to go to waste. Thanks Stacy!
I woke today with an upset stomach, feeling like I was coming down with something and went straight to the Chamomile. It worked. Now if it would stop raining!
Just bought my first pkg of organic seeds! Doing my research. Thanks Stacy
My husband has UC so I'm going to plant this everywhere!!! I would love the whole family to benefit from it! Thank you Stacy!!
I planted a whole pack of seeds this year! It is almost ready to bloom! Thank you for all the tips. 👍🏻
Chamomile is GREAT for women's monthly visits. Just drink a few cups 1 or 2 days before its expected and easy peasy lemon squeezy!
Thank you for sharing! I just planted Chamomile in my garden so this video has been very helpful.
Thanks for the anti blight tip! Here in the PNW we have lost two years in a row to blight. I'll try it.
And, I've never seen anyone else with white zucchini. A friend in Israel sent me seeds, I save the seeds from the fruits and share them
I didn't all you talked about with the chamomile. I do grow it but now I'm educated on it more.
I love gleaming from all your knowledge....well about everything!
Thank you Stacy 🤗
East Texas here. I love when you talk about herbs and their use. Companions herbs with veggies. Wow! Keep up the good work! God bless. All recipes are welcome here
No zuchinni here yet! Lol We are way north (Zone 2b) and really just beginning our growing season. Chamomile is planted :) but not up yet! I make a similar tea but with lavender instead of catnip and call it “calm tea” - for bedtime or anytime calming is needed. For the kids too - so helpful!
I planted chamomile, wormwood and bee balm this year. They are all growing well with little help!
As to the abundance of zucchini..I make pasta sauces with all the different types summer or winter squash. I dice the squash to small bits and put in a deep pan with melted butter. You can add minced onion and/or garlic if you wish. Cook at a very low temperature with a lid on and allow the squash to cook down to a fairly smooth consistency. I use a wand blender toward the end to get it ultra smooth. Add salt and spice to taste. This takes about half an hour or so. Serve over pasta shape you like best. For a richer flavor you can oven roast the vegetables ahead of time. Changes the flavor profile a lot more than one would expect for such a simple step. It is awesome!
Thank you so much for your channel with all your wonderful tips.
I ve been making so many things now by myself ( from your videos 😊) that you inspired me to move up up in the mountains in a farmhouse with land and space.
Got my first real garden going and thanking everything the abundance and beauty i am allowed to experience.
Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙏
Wonderful!
Drying my first chamomile this year. Thanks Stacy!
Thanks for sharing. Really enjoyed watching your video. God Bless! 😉🌻
I love growing chamomile!
I pucked up some chamomile from the Amish greenhouse and now i will plant some with my tomatoes. I cannot wait until I can harvest my own.
I am so happy to have found the two of you a couple of weeks ago! I am learning so much and am excited to incorporate your ideas into my very small garden. I love Chamomile tea, and now want to grow it in my raised beds with my veggies. This is my first year with the garden so I am looking at all you can teach me! Thank you so much for your information. I know I will be able to use your info here in my California/Bay Area space. Thank you again so much. Your place is beautiful and you not only give us tips, you tell us why. So important!
I love all the information I get out of your videos thank you love you God bless
Thank you Stacy for that nugget on picking your Cammamill flowers 🥰
I absolutely love your videos, Stacy. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in such an informative way. God bless you.
I just learned that chamomile is a companion plant.
Thank you Stacy. Love your Chamomile information. Learning every day. God bless you guys for sharing.
I plant chamomile in my garden and also have it growing wild on my property.
Thanks for the info! Will be planting more and using it in my beds.
This is my first year growing chamomile. I got a late start to planting due to a frost 1 month later than usual.
Chamomile tea is also great for a sore throat and a cold
PLEASE DO MORE COMBINATIONS OF HERBS FOR TEA. This one sounds delicious and I’m always trying new teas.
Thank you Stacey 😊💖
I love chamomile. You can dry and make tea with the flowers and the leaves. I dry mine the old fashion way, in the sun, for a few days. Every time I visit my hometown in Greece I pick and bring chamomile back. The best chamomile in the world! The flavor is amazing! Great video Stacy! I love your garden!
Thank you. Loving your garden!
I learn so much from y’all! Thank you Doug and Stacy!
Thank you very much, I hope you know how much the videos are appreciated
If you use a big toothed comb it's easier to scoop up the flowers only.
Strong chamomile, couple of tablespoons/cup, eases pain all over, reducing pressure on nerves.
Good to know
I am going to start growing chamomile. Loved this video. Never thought about it being a companion plant. Thanks for sharing.
bought seeds and now I know exactly what to do.Thank you.
Thank you, Stacy. I'm learning so much from you! Blessings!
Very good to know, thanks Stacey.
3 weeks later I came back to this video because my chamomile are in bloom and I wanted to know the harvesting and processing Routine so I can add them to my bath salts I sell. Thank you again!
Thank you so much for sharing this valuable information with us, I'm growing my own chamomile already but didn't know the process after the flowers bloom!
I learned that I need to plant some chamomile! God Bless! Carmen
So glad I found your channel... It's my favorite place to dream about our future 💕💕💕 thank you Stacy and Doug. Sending you nothing but miracles😍
Such a wonderful video Stacy I really enjoyed it and plan on using your Ideas. Thank you.
I'm glad you doing a video on your tea I bet asking about it
Chamomile is my go to when I need to calm myself. I also pick the pineapple weed, aka wild chamomile.
I’m new to growing herbs and trying figure out how to grow and more importantly what to do with it. I have one chamomile plant and can’t wait to try this!! Thank you for the information.
You have inspired me to grow my own tea fixins. Continued blessings...
Thankyou i didnt know to pluck them you just helped me with my favorite tea
This is the most delicious zucchini soup: 6-7 zucchini chopped with skin on, 1 small sweet onion chopped, 1 or 2 cloves of garlic, 1 large peeled potato chopped, salt, pepper to taste, hot pepper flakes to taste, ginger to taste. Easy to grow in your garden. 1/2 cup of half and half if you like, not necessary. 8 cups of water or vegetable broth, chicken, or bone broth. Or add a tablespoon of bouillon to the water if you like. Sauté onion, garlic, and pepper flakes in olive oil, add all the vegetables and water and simmer till soft or add to instant pot for 10 min on high. Use immersion blender or regular blender till smooth. Careful with regular blender not to overfill. Hot liquid can come out. Add the shaved ginger and stir in cream if you like. I don’t use cream and it’s delicious. You can sprinkle some shaved toasted almonds on top with a few drizzles a fresh olive oil.
That’s the next herb to go in the garden....thanks for all the wonderful information
And thanks for the awesome basket ♥️
Great video Stacy. I love that you explained the whole process from use, picking, drying, storing and eat/drinking. Very helpful for us noobs.
Beautiful healthy garden .
Never knew how to grow Chamomile for tea. Now that I know I will. Thank you so much, still so much to learn. I'm thankful for all the TH-camrs out there that share their knowledge. Knowledge is Power and through You and the others, I am becoming a Super Hero, Yay!!!
Thnx Stacey, that was Simple to the Point & had ALL the info I needed.
I love stumbling on channels like this. Awesome video, love your garden, looks super productive & healthy. Subbed 😁
what I know about Chamomile growing is "nothing". Your garden is really beautiful, Great to see it.
All your crops are beautiful.
Your channel saved my health. I was diagnosed with auto-immune. I learned how whole organic nutrient dense foods heal. Guys, you won’t believe how powerful food is. I was 2 weeks in and symptom free. Food heals!
What did u do ??
Anyv suggestions..even I too have immune deficiency
Chamomile makes a great hydrosol. I use it as a facial toner. Calms redness and is excellent for sensitive skin.
