I adopted a rescue dog and it was required that he be neutered before I could bring him home, the poor thing was so swollen in his male parts. When I let him out in the yard he made a beeline for the goldenrod which was in full bloom, he began eating it...not nibbling on it like they do dog grass, but biting off 4 or 5 leaves at a time and chewing and swallowing like he was starved and had not eaten in weeks. He cleared the leaves off of about 5 plants. I did not know what type of properties it had, but his focused attention to it told me he was acting from prior experience so I let him continue and he stopped and then began exploring the yard. The next morning, the swelling was completely gone and I had to look up the healing properties of Goldenrod, that is how I ended up here.....great video!
I never knew about the healing properties of goldenrod until we noticed our dog, who had bone cancer, started chewing specifically on younger stalks of goldenrod when we were on a walk. I watched closely to see what he was eating each time, and it was always goldenrod. I then researched it on the internet to learn more about this plant. I wonder how the dog knew what to eat. It was amazing. Your dog is cute, by the way. :)
lol...me too ! so happy & care-free ....so perfectly natural being his authentic self !....oh we humans have so much learn from the natural world in multiple ways !
This video is interesting and healthy for everyone. Why is this guy not on the television? I can find a simple garden show..and the Kardashians, and channel after channel of murder stories. Why is that? Plant medicine would become the new hobby of millions if this kind of info were spread over the television . And health would be the topic of the day instead of sickness.
Have a really bad peptic ulcer causes by H Pylori bacteria and I use so many of these flowers around my house. Golden rod is probably the most potent. Been utilizing mushrooms as well and feel so much better today. Went from 155 pds now down to 115 and thought I was on my way out till I used mint tyme chamomile and cone flowers to name a few. After the last two years I'm done with the medical establishment for obvious reasons.. Everything we could ever need is usually growing right in our back yards. Yarrow is the best and his videos are so knowledgeable. Stay Blessed everyone.
I have used a lot of Golden Rod in the past. The way I do it is, I cut the growing plant off at the bottom of the good healthy leaf section. Make sure leaves have no fungus growing on them. Leaves have to look healthy. I use a pruning shears to cut them. I pick my yrs supply of Golden Rod plants with as much stem that has good healthy looking leaves. I will have a large armful of Golden Rod. And bring them home and put them out in the sun to dry, if possible. If it is raining a lot, I find a place inside to put them to dry. Once dry, I strip dry leaves and flowers (which have turned to fluff and seeds by now), off the hard woody stems. Then I crush it all up by hand as fine as possible and store in airtight containers. This I use to make tea, as follows: I use a 2.5 litre pot and fill with water and bring to boil. Have about 2 cups of golden rod tea ready. Remove pot of boiling water from element and immediately add the Golden Rod Tea to pot. Do not stir. Cover pot and let sit for several hours, until cold or room temp. By this time, all the Golden Rod tea should of settled to the bottom. And you should have a rich dark brown tea. This is a concentrate. I strain it, and put it in a pitcher and store in the fridge in the coldest part of the fridge, just short of freezing. It will last a long time. When I want a cup of tea, I pour about 50 to 100 ml in cup and add room temperature water to fill cup and drink it. I find that I actually only need enough of the concentrate to colour the water. IMO it is a powerful soothing drink.
I appreciate you sharing your "recipe". I came down to leave MY, "little concoction tea mix" and I see that- "Whelp, someone's already got one down here." The ONLY things I would add, are based on what you're "feeling", (maybe an abcess tooth- [since "seasons" ARE about to change/are changing.. I'm getting a LOT of questions as to "what to use"/"when to use"..] more people will find their body's, "struggling to adjust", and with each year- the "struggle to adapt", becomes harder & harder on the body itself. That's simply, "aging". It's natural & it happens. Plants, however- Will, can & ALREADY HAVE- "slowed down that process". Adding cinnamon, honey, citrus juice, other plant "juices" will "help" to utilize more of "Goldenrod's properties". Also, when it comes to "harvesting", just "SAY NO"- to "imposter syndrome". You do NOT, "HAVE TO"- "leave with an empty basket & come back- 'FULL'.. in order to be "successful" or "ethical" for that matter. Always LEAVE- MORE than ½ of what EVER, 'IT' is that you're going "foraging"/"gathering" FOR! There are SO SO many, who- Not only "CANNOT tell" when/why/how "empty basket syndrome", FACTually- "Works", and while, "ignoring" & "denying"- "#TakingResponsibilityForYourActions", is NOT- "a BIG thing" [right NOW- "..bc gov/pharma- are NOT, 'taking responsibility for 'THEIR' ACTions.."] this,, does NOT, "MEAN": "OH, okay. Well- if 'THEY', 'don't HAVE TO'- 'take responsibility', then- neither am I." I PINKY PROMISE you, [in this case/this time..] YOU, ARE "The ONLY One", who- IS: - going to "HAVE TO"... - "pay the consequences" of YOUR OWN, "RE ACTions". Hence, why so many 'humans', 'bodys' ARE- "breaking down", at alarmingly rapid pace.
My dad has beehives near a field of goldenrods, it makes the honey quite special - much darker. We call goldenrods "golden brooms" or simply "little brooms" in my family in Latvia.
That isn’t how it works. No “god” is necessary. There are limited resources in nature. For plants, that means limited space to soak in sunlight and spread roots. So a plant that can utilize resources others can’t will be more successful at proliferating. For example, by sprouting and blooming where or when other plants aren’t, by utilizing nutrients that maybe others aren’t, and by producing chemicals that counteract parasitic bacteria and fungi better than in their neighbors. In this way, plants with niche specializations proliferate. It might then be the case that animals, such as ourselves, that eat a particular plant species also proliferate because some of the same innovations that benefit plants also benefit animals. Over time, there are more animals that eat the useful plant, simply because the ones that didn’t eat it don’t proliferate as well. And a concurrent benefit is that there are more useful plants for eating because animals have returned certain benefits - for example, fertilizing the plants with their gaseous, liquid, and solid wastes, carrying the plants’ seeds in their fur, between toes, or in their digestive tracts, and thinning out thick clumps of a species which might strengthen those that are left. For thousands of years humans have even been proactively cultivating the plants that we find the most useful. We think of cultivation as something we only do with vegetables and grains, but herbs and flowers have also been cultivated for thousands of years. So it isn’t a coincidence or a divine act that these plants exist. It is a result of natural selection, which in the last many thousand years includes human selection and cultivation.
There is no God. This is a concept to control the masses. Think about this, God bless America. You realize there’s North America Central America and South America. United States
Why would God if he does exist bless America or other country for that matter. Can you see the politician are using God to control. Supposedly this is been going on for quite some time, 2000 years. Most educated person or politician or control taking person Say these things to control people in order to get what they want which is money and power security, These people are minority compared to the mass of people. There’s no hell there’s no heaven when you die the game is over.
As a beekeeper, I prize Goldenrod. It affords me the ability to harvest honey from the summer and then give my bees, August, September to recollect from Goldenrod for their winter stores! Goldenrod honey is also great for allergies and I sometime take just a single frame for myself ;)
I'm teaching myself foraging for edible and medicinal plants in my area....I was literally staring at my giant field of goldenrod this afternoon thinking..." there has to be uses for it....." Love it🥰💛
When I first became interested in Goldenrod, I was coming down from a heavy Hawaiian Baby Woodrose session, there was some DXM and cannabis in the mix. But it was this time last year and when I went for a walk on the comedown/afterglow I saw the goldenrod seemed to speak to me and ignite my interest in herbalism. I’m making a mullein leaf/root, golden rod flower and fresh fly agaric tea for a well-being drink today. Thank you, Yarrow!
Lol, that's how it is for me. I use Google Lens to help with identifying plants and getting a close find to the actual plant. Thankfully most of the time it's pretty accurate.
You're my 5-year-old's favourite TH-camr ♥️ we were picking golden rod the other day and she was asking if you have a video about it... I said unfortunately not but if we send a wish out, you may upload one. Now BANG! You're the best! Lots of love from us from Latvia where we have this growing all over the place now ♥️
Thank you for sharing your story!! I see, have happening myself and read or hear about SO MUCH of this lately with the synchronicity and even outright psychic type Connection happening among people and animals... Even PLANTS! Honestly, I have seen this crazy thing happening strongly since 2013 when a VERY dark red sky came one night in August 2013 and FREAKED my Hubby and I out so bad we took a picture and I never stopped shooting daily/nightly for 5 straight years! THEN a red glow stayed in the Southeast for over 5 years, pulsating nightly until it faded out years later and is now gone totally. I documented it for those years and numerous other sky Anomalies/Objects ✨🤷 including Orbs/UFOs 😊😏 What do you think of this? It's also your joint EXPERIENCE now, likely other episodes with friends and family too😎. Sorry for the long and obscure comment but your story and the ENERGY it resonates grabbed me and wouldn't let go😂😂 Much Love! 😇😘🤗
Bee Varga The Hulahooper Wow.. what a story of synchronicity. Way to warm my heart ❤️ 🙌 Thanks for watching our videos and sharing this story. Many botanical blessings to you, your daughter and community in Latvia.
@@markusishere one can only try and do her best, it's priceless to raise a new human and have so much power to change the world. A mum can impact the development and interests and values of a child massively and I am happy to try my best ♥️
Used to eat this as a kid before it bloomed. Called it “wild broccoli” because that’s what it tastes like. Never knew it was good for more than making me sneeze after that lol. Thanks
My grandpa would make this into a balm fermented in olive oil. I never saw or knew it's proper name, so I could not replicate it. NOW I can. Thank you for this great gift.
Watching the Dog just run amuck is absolutely hilarious and sooo so heart warming. This video just made my day. Going out now to gather some Mullein and Goldenrod
I am amazed with your passion for plants , I grow up in small village and my grandmother was always collecting plants herbs seeds . She will always mumbling around plants (telling them why she need them and thanking them) Now I live in big city and when possible I collect berries for syrup /jam and plants for tea .. it's most relaxing time for me , Love what you do thank you !!
How sweet that you have shared your poetic memory of your precious grandmother. I got the most beautiful visual picture of her. thank you so much. Song
Wow, sounds like You come from a powerful bloodline. Within the ancient cultures, Immortals visit their bloodline in dreams teaching the power of connecting to the earth. Our Elder Moors tell us young, before you pick a bush/herb let it be known/ask & thank it so you can receive the true power it receives from Earth. The plant/tree receives your Love & gives you Love. Stay annointed, much Love.
@@sheliaellett6105 I Infuse the flowers and normally some plant oil like olive oil and combined it with my animal fat and lie like I would any other soap. My soaps all use a 100% natural colorings so this is how the color is achieved most the time.
@@permaculturepagan3483 That is so cool! I made soaps with St John's Wort and also Calendula infused oils recently and have received rave reviews!! Great way to use up those infused oils!!
Fantastic video Yarrow. I hope everybody only takes what they need as the bees rely on goldenrod to take them through the lean days of late fall into winter (SE USA). ✌ 💚
I hope so too, but considering its thought of as an invasive weed and eradicated in some places, I feel herbalist and plant nerds are likely to be little threat to its abundance.
@@Herbal_Jedi as a practicing herbalist I always pick with this consideration and others like making sure you pick in such a way that you don't interfere with the spread and whenever I see any herbs seeding I take it on myself to spread the seeds far and wide for more growth and I hope most are doing the same
Their seeds remain in the ground for many years, so even if you remove *all* the plants year after years, they keep coming back... In Europe it's an invasive species gaining ground very fast.
I, originally planted about 20 plants 10 years ago. Now I have about 300 of them in my front yard😊They're invasive, the 🐝🦋 and wasp love them. I just love that yellow color.
WOW 😮 impressive❗️You have 10acres yet full of GoldenRod❗️ My Wish in Life is just to have an acres to till the land coz’ #ILoveGardening🙏🤗❤️ Feelings feel to keep planting as to GoGreen🙏
I learned in my survival course that it was used in the past to treat deep trauma wounds like you mentioned with internal bleeding and also that it’s a natural aspirin/fever reducer. It’s one of my most favorite herbs and every time I see it, it makes me smile
I got injections in between my knuckles from the pain clinic. I also got a lot of relief from Goldenrod salt scrub that I make. I do not get the hand injections anymore. For me it works.
Knuckle pain, or any other joint pain/inflammation is mostly caused by food as grains & rafinated sugar (especially those with blodtype A) . 🌟 I got rid of grains, but sometimes, when eating role, i get pain in my wrists & ankles. Check out " grain brain"... Check out Otto Warburg what he said back in 1930's that gave him Nobel prize.. 🙏💖💓💕💕💕🌍🌎🌏
Hi, Amazing information. Would love it if you would share recipes for golden rod. I’m not too familiar and would love it if you would make a video with recipes etc. please 🙏🏼🙏🏼 thumbs up if everyone wants recipe videos
I follow an herbalist and she recommends starting with a ratio of 1:5 so you can make a tea, oil or tincture. So you can adjust the recipe if you need it stronger. So an example is 1 oz herb to 5 oz liquid. Then add another 1/2 oz at a time till you reach a desired effectiveness. Good luck I too got very frustrated with the lack of specific information like measurements because the average Joe doesn't know how much to use, and fear doing it wrong. He did mention a 1:2 ratio so that would be for a tea 3 oz herb to 6 oz water.
@@albanymountainhomestead Funny, I didn't even notice any ratio mentioned. Thanks for writing about it. I just filled my stock pot and covered it all with water and boiled it for 5-10 minutes then let it steep for 15-20 minutes. Bitter as a tea since I used the leaves too, but worked wonders for my skin issues. Thanks again!
Someone told me more than 10 years ago that Goldenrod was highly toxic, and I have avoided it ever since hahahaha, now I know different. Thank you my friend.
I looked it up in the 'Lost Book of Herbal Remedies' by Dr Nicole Apelian and it says the deadly/poisonous look a likes are; groundsel, life root, staggerweed and rag wort. Be careful when harvesting. It would be a good idea to check with an herbalist in your area.
LOVED THE SWEET DOG, ZOOMING THROUGH BEHIND YOU! 😆🤣😂❤ There is one I've collected over the years that tastes like anise that I make tea with. AND THANK YOU FOR SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE SHARED! ❤
I was just researching about it today! I have tons of stuff growing everywhere that I’m not familiar with and I don’t mow over because I know they’re good for something. Nature is so perfect that if you let her thrive, she will give you all you need. Thank you for this video! 💚
That's what I've done in my own yard this year, and my neighbor hates it because he's a retired landscaper 😆. I'm glad I saw your comment, its very motivating!
Ever since a girl, I have always loved Golden Rod. It is fine in the garden and also in the wild. Such a bright, sunny colour. Brings happiness. Now flowering in England.
Thanks for all you do herbal Jedi. ❤ Because of you , sharing your knowledge 🙏 recently my 15 year old Shitzu was peeing blood . I Took him to the Veternarian ‘ found out he had UTI . So I had treated him with some dried goldenrod I had collected the previous fall . I am happy to report he’s doing better than ever he has renewed energy in vitality my family can’t believe it’s the same dog.🎉 I’m so grateful for all you do to share the knowledge with us.🙏1000 thank you ‘s
Soo this flower was randomly growing near our house, and our dog would chew on it... My wife asked me what it was, and now im watching your amazing explanation...! Timeless video man..!
The factory I work at has a yard surrounded by a beautiful field of overgrowth. I picked one of these and a few queen annes lace to have at my station and it smelled like chamomile all day :) it's wonderful learning all this after being told it was ragweed, the allergen.
Long ago, I was told by my allergist that I was, among many other environmental things, allergic to goldenrod & ragweed. While I believe the ragweed is true, I have lived with the misinformation about the goldenrod for decades. Thank you for this correct info. My friend was growing right beside my enemy.
You are a great teacher! I'm on a journey to learn more about how to make herbal medicines and tinctures etc. I loved how you first told us how to identify the plant as well as how MUCH to take depending on what form you use (tea or tincture). I also thought of it being an allergen so thank you for clearing that one up for me :)
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge; it's a wonderful video and it's great to know more about this special plant. As a native plant and wildlife enthusiast I just want to clarify that describing this herb as "invasive" is a bit misleading and confusing to some people. Solidago canadensis is one of many species of goldenrod which are native to North America. While goldenrod is a plant that grows in an assertive manner and can be considered to be "weedy" because it's such a strong grower, the word "invasive" implies that it's an introduced species that displaces native plants. It's a species that is really a very important food source for many creatures, including all manner of pollinators but also various caterpillars as well, including some butterflies. Those creatures then go on to be food sources for other creatures such as birds or reptiles... you get the picture. For those of you who say the plant is covered by "bugs" please don't try to get rid of the them! Being a tremendous source of food for many different creatures is just another one of this plant's amazing superpowers! Being such as strong grower, there should be plenty for all to share. Watch and be amazed friends! : ) Thanks again for your wonderful video, Yarrow!
Thank you for this great information! I've been disappointed lately because living in Texas (suburbia) I'm not finding ANYTHING to forage UNTIL NOW- there is a ton of goldenrod growing along the creek near me! I am so excited to harvest & tincture this! Most people think that is ragweed that's been making our allergies so bad this year- I learned yesterday that ragweed looks very similar (green flowers-same shape, shorter plant) & grows right next to /around the goldenrod here, but they are very different! I have heard that golden rod is the antigen to ragweed allergies- I am going to go get some today & start drinking it as a tea to find out if it works that way! Goldenrod is also said to be cardiotonic as well as being an antibiotic herb, it is helpful for the respiratory system & heavy metal detox as well.
FYI when making a tea, tincture or an oil and they say to use a certain ratio like 1:2 ratio means to use 1 oz herb to 2 oz liquid. I follow another herbalist who recommended starting with a 1oz:5 oz ratio and adjust it up by 1/2 oz for desired effectiveness. It's not always best to start too strong as some herbs are more potent than others. I hope this helps those who are leery to dive onto natural medicine. I understand the struggle!
@@larrylapierre2295 I'm not sure if it has any uses, but it sure is a beautiful sight growing mixed in with goldenrod 😍 I know it indicates moisture rich soil but that's about all I can tell you... good luck and happy travels down the plant path my friend, there's always more to learn so if you find out any uses let me know 😊
The live video and chat are a great way to share knowledge... it's helpful when you can interact with others and ask questions. Thank you for your time, Herbal Jedi. Blessings to all 🙏
Drinking some of my own goldenrod tea right now! It is so easy to make, I harvested mine over a year ago. Medicine that grows in your own backyard... oh the things we have forgotten we already know. I also drink my own wild lettuce tea. It's crazy to think of just how much power we actually do have, and how much nature has to offer us... for free, abundantly. Thanks for your video! :)
I live in a small town in East Tennessee, I have been seeing these blooming while on the hunt for Calendula or field marigold. Thank you for sharing you knowledge
I have so much Goldenrod on my property here in central Massachusetts and am so happy to learn of its many healing benefits. Thank you and God bless you for sharing your brilliant knowledge.
My first experience with Golden rod I bought elecampain seedlings at a nursery...but they were Golden rod. I learned about the herb on the fly and grew it for several years. A first love so to speak. Love that I ran across this video as I've added it to my list to reaquaint with this year. Love the doggo run by at the beginning 😍
When l was a kid, l was told l was allergic to goldenrod. Now it grows all around my house. Last year l filmed a bloom of goldenrod and all it's insect friends pollinating the bud. Thank you for this video.🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
That was fabulous. We have this in our area and your video hit all the important points: 1) what it's good for; 2) how to identify it; 3) how to prepare it; 4) dosage. A perfect tutorial, and I'll be sure to make both the tea and the tincture.
We tincture it. I use it together with ragweed (preflowering), red clover and a small amount of lobelia. It has been a game changer. I use it a couple of times a day in allergy season plus more if I need it.

Been really getting into foraging and making tintures last few yrs. It really gets you back to where I think we all belong. In nature. Look at the world and society today. No thanks. I'd rather talk to plants and animals than deal with that! This world keeps you in a constant state of fear and hate cause you can't love and care while you hate and are afraid. Much 🥰 y'all.
Watched a few of your videos sporadically, this one popped up after picking some last week for a fall flower bouquet. Had no idea of the medicinal benefits, have these all over the yard. The video came at just the right time, thank you for sharing your knowledge! Love and light!
Incredible . The old lady who lived in my family's home years ago before us must have grow this and to find out it can help my folks in there old age is incredible thank you so so much
Any who.. it’s great to see you constantly evolving Yarrow! Your spirit is definitely more and more enlightened as I watch your videos from then to now! Great work!
Look out for that bear running around! I have kidney issues and ive always been enchanted by this bloom every year. Hope we have more groundbreaking science to make more medicine from Earth that don’t have all the side effects. One day. Stay positive. ♥️
This got me really excited, I picked some at a bird eco sanctuary, and am just drinking my first tea right now. Incidentally I picked a card just before, which happens to be "Balance" (Messages Lumières card deck by Mario Duguay) 🙏😉❤️
I was wondering if you could do a video about the medicinal properties of catnip. I know it's good for anxiety and has been used for everything from colic to cancer. It would be great to hear your talk about!!!🌳🍃🌿💚💚💚
Thank you for this information .. I have been calling these three big patches of plants rag weed for years and now i know they are golden rod !!!! useful etc ..thanks again
I use the stalks of Goldenrod to stake vegetables growing in my garden. It works well as a woven fence to keep sprawling/spreading plants confined to a row too. Thanks for the medicinal info. I like the flavor of Goldenrod leaf tea, but haven't really needed to use it medicinally.
Yarrow I love your videos, I just recently discovered your channel. Thanks for the information. :) It's very interesting to me, to learn about the healing properties of these amazing plants all around us. I'm just beginning to learn and study. I have to say your Mulling over Mullein video got me started on this path. So thank you!
Loved the fastest, furry dork that ran past you while you were expanding on our amazing ally, Goldenrod! Thank you so much for expanding on her medicine!!!
You’re awesome 👏🏻!!! You have a way of transmitting knowledge in such a simple and fun way. I just feel like learning more when I listen to you. God bless
I'm also unfortunately have what they call Morgellons disease and it hell. Things growing out of my skin and golden rod has helped with this as well. Good stuff
As usual, excellent vid, your knowledge and eloquence in presenting so much useful information👍👍👍 Goldenrod so important for our late season pollinators in Ontario, glad you mentioned the bees!🐝 Thanks so much for sharing. Your posts, in content and presentation, are truly restorative😊 Keep well, Earth steward...😷
James M but the ability to use the knowledge and teach others through experience and understanding has to do with what is also measured in an iq test. Just memorizing knowledge is a different kind of intelligence. Mr. yarrow seems good at all those things.
TY my husband has always beebn sceptical of my herbals , he found this channel on his own and i caught him watching it when i asked him about it he said he was learning more and Just Mabey ive been right about some things he then forwarded your link to me i have a quiet giggle to my self when i catch him trying to hide watching you now

I never knew about the healing properties of goldenrod until we noticed our dog, who had bone cancer, started chewing specifically on younger stalks of goldenrod when we were on a walk. I watched closely to see what he was eating each time, and it was always goldenrod. I then researched it on the internet to learn more about this plant. I wonder how the dog knew what to eat. It was amazing. Your dog is cute, by the way. :)

One of our dogs eats it when it’s stomach gets upset.
Same. My dog ate an entire little patch of dill. It soothes digestive problems.
All 3 of oyr dogs eat it too,it amazed me, too watch them know what they needed.....

Big Pharma has no interest in these affairs! In France the use of stinging nettle was forbidden for a couple of years!!!
One must self- answer such a question
There’s no money in healthy people
That’s not what the pharmaceautical companies want,there’s no money in natural things
Have a really bad peptic ulcer causes by H Pylori bacteria and I use so many of these flowers around my house. Golden rod is probably the most potent. Been utilizing mushrooms as well and feel so much better today. Went from 155 pds now down to 115 and thought I was on my way out till I used mint tyme chamomile and cone flowers to name a few. After the last two years I'm done with the medical establishment for obvious reasons.. Everything we could ever need is usually growing right in our back yards. Yarrow is the best and his videos are so knowledgeable. Stay Blessed everyone.
Shrooms ❤
I have used a lot of Golden Rod in the past.
The way I do it is, I cut the growing plant off at the bottom of the good healthy leaf section. Make sure leaves have no fungus growing on them. Leaves have to look healthy.
I use a pruning shears to cut them. I pick my yrs supply of Golden Rod plants with as much stem that has good healthy looking leaves. I will have a large armful of Golden Rod. And bring them home and put them out in the sun to dry, if possible. If it is raining a lot, I find a place inside to put them to dry.
Once dry, I strip dry leaves and flowers (which have turned to fluff and seeds by now), off the hard woody stems. Then I crush it all up by hand as fine as possible and store in airtight containers.
This I use to make tea, as follows:
I use a 2.5 litre pot and fill with water and bring to boil. Have about 2 cups of golden rod tea ready. Remove pot of boiling water from element and immediately add the Golden Rod Tea to pot. Do not stir. Cover pot and let sit for several hours, until cold or room temp.
By this time, all the Golden Rod tea should of settled to the bottom.
And you should have a rich dark brown tea. This is a concentrate.
I strain it, and put it in a pitcher and store in the fridge in the coldest part of the fridge, just short of freezing. It will last a long time.
When I want a cup of tea, I pour about 50 to 100 ml in cup and add room temperature water to fill cup and drink it.
I find that I actually only need enough of the concentrate to colour the water.
IMO it is a powerful soothing drink.
Thank you!
I appreciate you sharing your "recipe".
I came down to leave MY, "little concoction tea mix" and I see that-
"Whelp, someone's already got one down here."
The ONLY things I would add, are based on what you're "feeling", (maybe an abcess tooth- [since "seasons" ARE about to change/are changing.. I'm getting a LOT of questions as to "what to use"/"when to use"..] more people will find their body's, "struggling to adjust", and with each year- the "struggle to adapt", becomes harder & harder on the body itself.
That's simply, "aging". It's natural & it happens.
Plants, however-
Will, can & ALREADY HAVE- "slowed down that process".
Adding cinnamon, honey, citrus juice, other plant "juices" will "help" to utilize more of "Goldenrod's properties".
Also, when it comes to "harvesting", just "SAY NO"- to "imposter syndrome".
You do NOT, "HAVE TO"- "leave with an empty basket & come back- 'FULL'.. in order to be "successful" or "ethical" for that matter.
Always LEAVE- MORE than ½ of what EVER, 'IT' is that you're going "foraging"/"gathering" FOR!
There are SO SO many, who-
Not only "CANNOT tell" when/why/how "empty basket syndrome", FACTually-
"Works", and while, "ignoring" & "denying"- "#TakingResponsibilityForYourActions", is NOT- "a BIG thing" [right NOW- "..bc gov/pharma- are NOT, 'taking responsibility for 'THEIR' ACTions.."] this,, does NOT, "MEAN":
"OH, okay. Well- if 'THEY', 'don't HAVE TO'- 'take responsibility', then- neither am I."
I PINKY PROMISE you, [in this case/this time..]
YOU, ARE "The ONLY One", who- IS:
- going to "HAVE TO"...
- "pay the consequences" of YOUR OWN, "RE ACTions".
Hence, why so many 'humans', 'bodys' ARE- "breaking down", at alarmingly rapid pace.
Thank you
Thank you for your recipe!!❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing!
My dad has beehives near a field of goldenrods, it makes the honey quite special - much darker. We call goldenrods "golden brooms" or simply "little brooms" in my family in Latvia.
Lovely. Thank you for sharing.
It's amazing that God made specific plants, herbs, for specific organans, tissues, body parts
Yeah like poison ivy right.....
That isn’t how it works. No “god” is necessary. There are limited resources in nature. For plants, that means limited space to soak in sunlight and spread roots. So a plant that can utilize resources others can’t will be more successful at proliferating. For example, by sprouting and blooming where or when other plants aren’t, by utilizing nutrients that maybe others aren’t, and by producing chemicals that counteract parasitic bacteria and fungi better than in their neighbors. In this way, plants with niche specializations proliferate. It might then be the case that animals, such as ourselves, that eat a particular plant species also proliferate because some of the same innovations that benefit plants also benefit animals. Over time, there are more animals that eat the useful plant, simply because the ones that didn’t eat it don’t proliferate as well. And a concurrent benefit is that there are more useful plants for eating because animals have returned certain benefits - for example, fertilizing the plants with their gaseous, liquid, and solid wastes, carrying the plants’ seeds in their fur, between toes, or in their digestive tracts, and thinning out thick clumps of a species which might strengthen those that are left. For thousands of years humans have even been proactively cultivating the plants that we find the most useful. We think of cultivation as something we only do with vegetables and grains, but herbs and flowers have also been cultivated for thousands of years. So it isn’t a coincidence or a divine act that these plants exist. It is a result of natural selection, which in the last many thousand years includes human selection and cultivation.
There is no God.
There is no God. This is a concept to control the masses. Think about this, God bless America. You realize there’s North America Central America and South America. United States
Why would God if he does exist bless America or other country for that matter. Can you see the politician are using God to control. Supposedly this is been going on for quite some time, 2000 years. Most educated person or politician or control taking person Say these things to control people in order to get what they want which is money and power security, These people are minority compared to the mass of people. There’s no hell there’s no heaven when you die the game is over.
As a beekeeper, I prize Goldenrod. It affords me the ability to harvest honey from the summer and then give my bees, August, September to recollect from Goldenrod for their winter stores! Goldenrod honey is also great for allergies and I sometime take just a single frame for myself ;)
I'm teaching myself foraging for edible and medicinal plants in my area....I was literally staring at my giant field of goldenrod this afternoon thinking..." there has to be uses for it....."
Love it🥰💛
I can live off my yard. I throw in what I want. I have yarrow, violets, moss, bark, dandelions, mint, plantain, mullein, luminaria, etc.
I've done the same thing! I have a great stand of goldenrod out back--thought it must be useful but didn't know how!
When I first became interested in Goldenrod, I was coming down from a heavy Hawaiian Baby Woodrose session, there was some DXM and cannabis in the mix. But it was this time last year and when I went for a walk on the comedown/afterglow I saw the goldenrod seemed to speak to me and ignite my interest in herbalism. I’m making a mullein leaf/root, golden rod flower and fresh fly agaric tea for a well-being drink today. Thank you, Yarrow!
Lol, that's how it is for me. I use Google Lens to help with identifying plants and getting a close find to the actual plant. Thankfully most of the time it's pretty accurate.
Heck yea I did that today too
You're my 5-year-old's favourite TH-camr ♥️ we were picking golden rod the other day and she was asking if you have a video about it... I said unfortunately not but if we send a wish out, you may upload one. Now BANG! You're the best! Lots of love from us from Latvia where we have this growing all over the place now ♥️
Thank you for sharing your story!! I see, have happening myself and read or hear about SO MUCH of this lately with the synchronicity and even outright psychic type Connection happening among people and animals... Even PLANTS!
Honestly, I have seen this crazy thing happening strongly since 2013 when a VERY dark red sky came one night in August 2013 and FREAKED my Hubby and I out so bad we took a picture and I never stopped shooting daily/nightly for 5 straight years! THEN a red glow stayed in the Southeast for over 5 years, pulsating nightly until it faded out years later and is now gone totally.
I documented it for those years and numerous other sky Anomalies/Objects ✨🤷 including Orbs/UFOs 😊😏
What do you think of this? It's also your joint EXPERIENCE now, likely other episodes with friends and family too😎.
Sorry for the long and obscure comment but your story and the ENERGY it resonates grabbed me and wouldn't let go😂😂
Much Love! 😇😘🤗
I love this... Thank you for sharing.
Bee Varga The Hulahooper Wow.. what a story of synchronicity.
Way to warm my heart ❤️ 🙌
Thanks for watching our videos and sharing this story.
Many botanical blessings to you, your daughter and community in Latvia.
Thank you for encouraging your daughter! It's so nice to hear
@@markusishere one can only try and do her best, it's priceless to raise a new human and have so much power to change the world. A mum can impact the development and interests and values of a child massively and I am happy to try my best ♥️
Dog was a huge hit with me too. Made me laugh, I needed that.💛
Used to eat this as a kid before it bloomed. Called it “wild broccoli” because that’s what it tastes like. Never knew it was good for more than making me sneeze after that lol. Thanks
My grandpa would make this into a balm fermented in olive oil. I never saw or knew it's proper name, so I could not replicate it. NOW I can. Thank you for this great gift.
What did he use the balm for?
@@SI-ln6tc Any open cut or wound, it would heal quickly and without scarring.
@@picklesnoutpenobscott3165 Thank you. Very good first aid for small cuts.
Did he use leaves and flowers?
Only the flowered stalks, not really the leaves@@melanylizakowski6569
Watching the Dog just run amuck is absolutely hilarious and sooo so heart warming. This video just made my day. Going out now to gather some Mullein and Goldenrod
I am amazed with your passion for plants , I grow up in small village and my grandmother was always collecting plants herbs seeds .
She will always mumbling around plants (telling them why she need them and thanking them)
Now I live in big city and when possible I collect berries for syrup /jam and plants for tea .. it's most relaxing time for me ,
Love what you do thank you !!
How sweet that you have shared your poetic memory of your precious grandmother. I got the most beautiful visual picture of her. thank you so much. Song
Wow, sounds like You come from a powerful bloodline. Within the ancient cultures, Immortals visit their bloodline in dreams teaching the power of connecting to the earth. Our Elder Moors tell us young, before you pick a bush/herb let it be known/ask & thank it so you can receive the true power it receives from Earth. The plant/tree receives your Love & gives you Love. Stay annointed, much Love.
you clean and boil the roots reduce the water till 25% left add a little sugar and you have a great cough syrup
@Angel Freak yw
That's awesome! I have it in my yard.
How much water?
@@codyhobbs1100 for a good handful of clean roots a quart, cook it down slow until a cup is left
And how much sugar?? Can you use honey??
When that blooms here it's a sign that fall is here. Useful in soap making as well as medicinal.
6 wks, after we see the flowers in goldenrod, we usually have our 1st frost(were in central Wi.)
@@sheliaellett6105 I Infuse the flowers and normally some plant oil like olive oil and combined it with my animal fat and lie like I would any other soap. My soaps all use a 100% natural colorings so this is how the color is achieved most the time.
@@permaculturepagan3483 That is so cool! I made soaps with St John's Wort and also Calendula infused oils recently and have received rave reviews!! Great way to use up those infused oils!!
Fantastic video Yarrow. I hope everybody only takes what they need as the bees rely on goldenrod to take them through the lean days of late fall into winter (SE USA). ✌ 💚
I hope so too, but considering its thought of as an invasive weed and eradicated in some places, I feel herbalist and plant nerds are likely to be little threat to its abundance.
It's the last food for the monarchs before they migrate too!
@@Herbal_Jedi as a practicing herbalist I always pick with this consideration and others like making sure you pick in such a way that you don't interfere with the spread and whenever I see any herbs seeding I take it on myself to spread the seeds far and wide for more growth and I hope most are doing the same
@@Herbal_Jedi I hope this is a native plant,,it's our State flower in Nebraska..
Their seeds remain in the ground for many years, so even if you remove *all* the plants year after years, they keep coming back... In Europe it's an invasive species gaining ground very fast.
I, originally planted about 20 plants 10 years ago. Now I have about 300 of them in my front yard😊They're invasive, the 🐝🦋 and wasp love them. I just love that yellow color.
One of my favorite plants to dye fabric with! About to bloom here in Michigan, pretty excited!
Do you know any good Michigan edible plant books
How can we make dye out of it?
im curious how thats done as well please share!
How do you use it for dye..we want to know please?
I have a bunch of goldenrod growing by my front door this year. I didn't realize it was such a gift.
I have 10 acres of “Canada Goldenrod”.
WOW 😮 impressive❗️You have 10acres yet full of GoldenRod❗️ My Wish in Life is just to have an acres to till the land coz’ #ILoveGardening🙏🤗❤️ Feelings feel to keep planting as to GoGreen🙏
I learned in my survival course that it was used in the past to treat deep trauma wounds like you mentioned with internal bleeding and also that it’s a natural aspirin/fever reducer. It’s one of my most favorite herbs and every time I see it, it makes me smile
Virgen Weed learning more everyday, the day I stop is the day they put me in the ground lol
I got injections in between my knuckles from the pain clinic. I also got a lot of relief from Goldenrod salt scrub that I make. I do not get the hand injections anymore. For me it works.
That sounds awful. I'm glad the plant helps!
Knuckle pain, or any other joint pain/inflammation is mostly caused by food as grains & rafinated sugar (especially those with blodtype A) . 🌟 I got rid of grains, but sometimes, when eating role, i get pain in my wrists & ankles. Check out " grain brain"... Check out Otto Warburg what he said back in 1930's that gave him Nobel prize.. 🙏💖💓💕💕💕🌍🌎🌏
In Mexico the people grab a bee and sting themselves in between the knuckle or painful areas for relief.
How do you make the goldenrod salt scrub?
@@westwood3286 i have also heard that hitting yourself with stinging nettle branches gets the blood moving to that area and has the same effect
we are surrounded by gifts from nature, thank you for this!
Hi,
Amazing information. Would love it if you would share recipes for golden rod. I’m not too familiar and would love it if you would make a video with recipes etc. please 🙏🏼🙏🏼 thumbs up if everyone wants recipe videos
I follow an herbalist and she recommends starting with a ratio of 1:5 so you can make a tea, oil or tincture. So you can adjust the recipe if you need it stronger. So an example is 1 oz herb to 5 oz liquid. Then add another 1/2 oz at a time till you reach a desired effectiveness. Good luck I too got very frustrated with the lack of specific information like measurements because the average Joe doesn't know how much to use, and fear doing it wrong. He did mention a 1:2 ratio so that would be for a tea 3 oz herb to 6 oz water.
@@albanymountainhomestead thanks so much ❣
A tea bags worth to a cup
@@albanymountainhomestead Funny, I didn't even notice any ratio mentioned. Thanks for writing about it. I just filled my stock pot and covered it all with water and boiled it for 5-10 minutes then let it steep for 15-20 minutes. Bitter as a tea since I used the leaves too, but worked wonders for my skin issues. Thanks again!
Someone told me more than 10 years ago that Goldenrod was highly toxic, and I have avoided it ever since hahahaha, now I know different. Thank you my friend.
I heard there is a look s like that is poisonous.
I looked it up in the 'Lost Book of Herbal Remedies' by Dr Nicole Apelian and it says the deadly/poisonous look a likes are; groundsel, life root, staggerweed and rag wort. Be careful when harvesting. It would be a good idea to check with an herbalist in your area.
I am totally captivated by a field full of goldenrod near my cabin. Such a stunning flower!
LOVED THE SWEET DOG, ZOOMING THROUGH BEHIND YOU! 😆🤣😂❤ There is one I've collected over the years that tastes like anise that I make tea with. AND THANK YOU FOR SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE SHARED! ❤
I'm very thankful to find you Jedi ! 👍👌😊💕
I was just researching about it today! I have tons of stuff growing everywhere that I’m not familiar with and I don’t mow over because I know they’re good for something. Nature is so perfect that if you let her thrive, she will give you all you need. Thank you for this video! 💚
That's what I've done in my own yard this year, and my neighbor hates it because he's a retired landscaper 😆. I'm glad I saw your comment, its very motivating!
@@whateversmurfette my S.O isn’t allowed to weed eat or mow, I end up with more chores than I have time, but I get to save and keep awesome plants!💚

Ever since a girl, I have always loved Golden Rod. It is fine in the garden and also in the wild. Such a bright, sunny colour. Brings happiness. Now flowering in England.
Thanks for all you do herbal Jedi. ❤ Because of you , sharing your knowledge 🙏 recently my 15 year old Shitzu was peeing blood . I Took him to the Veternarian ‘ found out he had UTI . So I had treated him with some dried goldenrod I had collected the previous fall . I am happy to report he’s doing better than ever he has renewed energy in vitality my family can’t believe it’s the same dog.🎉 I’m so grateful for all you do to share the knowledge with us.🙏1000 thank you ‘s
Soo this flower was randomly growing near our house, and our dog would chew on it... My wife asked me what it was, and now im watching your amazing explanation...! Timeless video man..!
The factory I work at has a yard surrounded by a beautiful field of overgrowth. I picked one of these and a few queen annes lace to have at my station and it smelled like chamomile all day :) it's wonderful learning all this after being told it was ragweed, the allergen.
Long ago, I was told by my allergist that I was, among many other environmental things, allergic to goldenrod & ragweed. While I believe the ragweed is true, I have lived with the misinformation about the goldenrod for decades. Thank you for this correct info. My friend was growing right beside my enemy.
You are a great teacher! I'm on a journey to learn more about how to make herbal medicines and tinctures etc. I loved how you first told us how to identify the plant as well as how MUCH to take depending on what form you use (tea or tincture). I also thought of it being an allergen so thank you for clearing that one up for me :)
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge; it's a wonderful video and it's great to know more about this special plant. As a native plant and wildlife enthusiast I just want to clarify that describing this herb as "invasive" is a bit misleading and confusing to some people. Solidago canadensis is one of many species of goldenrod which are native to North America. While goldenrod is a plant that grows in an assertive manner and can be considered to be "weedy" because it's such a strong grower, the word "invasive" implies that it's an introduced species that displaces native plants. It's a species that is really a very important food source for many creatures, including all manner of pollinators but also various caterpillars as well, including some butterflies. Those creatures then go on to be food sources for other creatures such as birds or reptiles... you get the picture. For those of you who say the plant is covered by "bugs" please don't try to get rid of the them! Being a tremendous source of food for many different creatures is just another one of this plant's amazing superpowers! Being such as strong grower, there should be plenty for all to share. Watch and be amazed friends! : ) Thanks again for your wonderful video, Yarrow!
Thank you for this great information! I've been disappointed lately because living in Texas (suburbia) I'm not finding ANYTHING to forage UNTIL NOW- there is a ton of goldenrod growing along the creek near me! I am so excited to harvest & tincture this! Most people think that is ragweed that's been making our allergies so bad this year- I learned yesterday that ragweed looks very similar (green flowers-same shape, shorter plant) & grows right next to /around the goldenrod here, but they are very different! I have heard that golden rod is the antigen to ragweed allergies- I am going to go get some today & start drinking it as a tea to find out if it works that way! Goldenrod is also said to be cardiotonic as well as being an antibiotic herb, it is helpful for the respiratory system & heavy metal detox as well.
We so appreciate your passing on your knowledge about the many diverse natural substances (many readily) found in nature.
Thank you so much.
I wish you would post clear stagnant pics of each part of plant that helps identify it easier. Btw thanks. Your the few people I trust about foraging
FYI when making a tea, tincture or an oil and they say to use a certain ratio like 1:2 ratio means to use 1 oz herb to 2 oz liquid. I follow another herbalist who recommended starting with a 1oz:5 oz ratio and adjust it up by 1/2 oz for desired effectiveness. It's not always best to start too strong as some herbs are more potent than others. I hope this helps those who are leery to dive onto natural medicine. I understand the struggle!
Thanks for the tip!!!
I can't speak highly of the flavor as a tea, but goldenrod is good stuff. My dog and cat also eat the leaves and stalk.
How long do you keep it in the jar before you strain off the flower?
@@j.d.preppingerie6522 4-8 weeks for tinctures
@@j.d.preppingerie65224 to 6 weeks. it will be ready to use.

What do you use purple aster for I have tons
@@larrylapierre2295 I'm not sure if it has any uses, but it sure is a beautiful sight growing mixed in with goldenrod 😍 I know it indicates moisture rich soil but that's about all I can tell you... good luck and happy travels down the plant path my friend, there's always more to learn so if you find out any uses let me know 😊
I love goldenrod. There is lots in Ontario. I find it works really well to resolve colds, especially in the early stage.
Thanks for adding that... good one for this coming cold season..
I love seeing all the goldenrod whenever I go to ontario..
The live video and chat are a great way to share knowledge... it's helpful when you can interact with others and ask questions. Thank you for your time, Herbal Jedi. Blessings to all 🙏
Clea happy to have been able to connect on the live chat
Drinking some of my own goldenrod tea right now! It is so easy to make, I harvested mine over a year ago. Medicine that grows in your own backyard... oh the things we have forgotten we already know. I also drink my own wild lettuce tea. It's crazy to think of just how much power we actually do have, and how much nature has to offer us... for free, abundantly. Thanks for your video! :)
I live in a small town in East Tennessee, I have been seeing these blooming while on the hunt for Calendula or field marigold. Thank you for sharing you knowledge

I have so much Goldenrod on my property here in central Massachusetts and am so happy to learn of its many healing benefits. Thank you and God bless you for sharing your brilliant knowledge.
EXCELLENT!
My first experience with Golden rod I bought elecampain seedlings at a nursery...but they were Golden rod. I learned about the herb on the fly and grew it for several years. A first love so to speak. Love that I ran across this video as I've added it to my list to reaquaint with this year.
Love the doggo run by at the beginning 😍
When l was a kid, l was told l was allergic to goldenrod. Now it grows all around my house. Last year l filmed a bloom of goldenrod and all it's insect friends pollinating the bud. Thank you for this video.🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
It's possibly ragweed that you're allergic to? It blooms at the same time as the beautiful golden rod.
That was fabulous. We have this in our area and your video hit all the important points: 1) what it's good for; 2) how to identify it; 3) how to prepare it; 4) dosage. A perfect tutorial, and I'll be sure to make both the tea and the tincture.

Hi from Kentucky! Thank you so much for your knowledge.
Thanks! Great information.
Best thing I ever used for my ragweed allergies.
Can you offer any tips on how to use GR for allergies?
I was always told I was allergic to goldenrod so this is a total🤯 moment for me. Any tips for using for allergies
We tincture it. I use it together with ragweed (preflowering), red clover and a small amount of lobelia. It has been a game changer. I use it a couple of times a day in allergy season plus more if I need it.

Been really getting into foraging and making tintures last few yrs. It really gets you back to where I think we all belong. In nature. Look at the world and society today. No thanks. I'd rather talk to plants and animals than deal with that! This world keeps you in a constant state of fear and hate cause you can't love and care while you hate and are afraid. Much 🥰 y'all.
Thank you for actually telling us “how” to make it. So many will tell us what it’s for but not how or how much. 👍🏼
I usually cut this as part of my flower arrangement but I never thought of it as a medicinal herb. Thanks for this.
I am learning so much with these videos. So glad I came across this dude!! These are the classes we need in schools!!
Sounds like Midas himself touched this plant!! What great uses!! Thanks for sharing🤠🤙
Watched a few of your videos sporadically, this one popped up after picking some last week for a fall flower bouquet. Had no idea of the medicinal benefits, have these all over the yard. The video came at just the right time, thank you for sharing your knowledge! Love and light!
2 plants (weeds i thought) in my garden got me curious this year.. and both have led me to you! Thankyou. btw..plants we're Golden Rod and Mullein.
I sneezed just looking at the thumbnail 😂 thank you for sharing your knowledge! I had no clue it was so beneficial :)
Incredible . The old lady who lived in my family's home years ago before us must have grow this and to find out it can help my folks in there old age is incredible thank you so so much
The dog 😂🤣 Totally reminded me of my dog when I'm out foraging.
Any who.. it’s great to see you constantly evolving Yarrow! Your spirit is definitely more and more enlightened as I watch your videos from then to now! Great work!
Look out for that bear running around! I have kidney issues and ive always been enchanted by this bloom every year. Hope we have more groundbreaking science to make more medicine from Earth that don’t have all the side effects. One day. Stay positive. ♥️
This got me really excited, I picked some at a bird eco sanctuary, and am just drinking my first tea right now. Incidentally I picked a card just before, which happens to be "Balance" (Messages Lumières card deck by Mario Duguay) 🙏😉❤️
Love him! He's such a great teacher!!!
Great information, thank you. And yes, I had to rewind and rewatch the dog zoomie video bomb a few times. 😄❣️
LOL, that's so funny, I did the same thing! For a second there I thought it was a bear coming to get him
Had to do that too, silly pooch

At 2:07 Happy dog 😆💚 haha love it! Thanks for the laugh🤗
my favorite youtube channel ever. I'm heading out back for some goldenrod now. Thank you, I love the cheery exciting energy.
I'm from Kentucky and that is our state flower. It grows everywhere.
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MORE OF THE HARVEST AND THE MAKING OF THE MEDIZINE
THANKS I ENJOYED
We need to teach this stuff as essential. Rather than political and fringe subjects that benefit nobody.
Nicholas Culpeper said goldenrod "respects beauty lost", which I take to mean it's good for facial wrinkles, spots, etc. Brilliant video, HJ.
I use the stalks of Goldenrod to stake vegetables growing in my garden. It works well as a woven fence to keep sprawling/spreading plants confined to a row too. Thanks for the medicinal info. I like the flavor of Goldenrod leaf tea, but haven't really needed to use it medicinally.

And thank you for the information about Goldenrod.
My god, this guys IQ must be through the roof!
IQ and actual knowledge are 2 different things.
James M but the ability to use the knowledge and teach others through experience and understanding has to do with what is also measured in an iq test. Just memorizing knowledge is a different kind of intelligence. Mr. yarrow seems good at all those things.
TY my husband has always beebn sceptical of my herbals , he found this channel on his own and i caught him watching it when i asked him about it he said he was learning more and Just Mabey ive been right about some things he then forwarded your link to me i have a quiet giggle to my self when i catch him trying to hide watching you now
Yay! I needed a dose of Yarrow after the week I've had. With so much going on right now this is perfectly timed. Thank you so much.
