Thank you Cami, hubby, and family for this great informative video. Loved the elderberry harvest, my daughter has it daily! I enjoyed all the beauty in the trees, your property is so beautiful.
That menthol is gorgeous! I use it in an essential oil headache pain reliever. What a beautiful overview of the endless bounty that is all around us if we remember how to use it. I'm going to try the garlic honey... wonderful idea! Thank you for such a gorgeous and informative video. 🤍🤍🤍
hey girl- Wow! Y'all have been busy😀😉 great ideas and things to prepare and make- yummy food! Y'all have a great weekend- 🥰Oh and by the way you have a nice singing voice😊
It is very demanding work to can!!!!! You did a lot !!!!! I loved canning when my kids were young and at home but now they are all married so I don’t do it anymore….. but I loved watching you !!., thank you for sharing!!!!!
Yes it is! But why is it so incredibly rewarding?! I love seeing the jars lined up in our pantry so much. I don't know that I'll do it so much when our kids are gone, - or maybe I'll do more of it. Ha!
One thing to note, I found out recently that elderberry is actually not a high acid berry like most. It’s apparently not safe to water bath can by itself. I add lemon juice and honey, which helps.
Thank you for sharing that with us Cynthia. I was worried about it too and we actually got out our PH test strips to make sure it was in the safe zone. But I think next time I'll add the lemon juice and honey like you suggested. It would make it yummier anyway!
Maybe an extract with the menthol...or a rub like Vick's? Also could it work as an essential oil in a diffuser. Or....an ingredient for a throat lozenge? Wow.....now I want to grow some😂❤
The singing blessed my soul. Beautiful and peaceful. Sing more often for us please. Always enjoy your family
I'm so glad. It was a sweet moment with the kiddos for me. But I am pretty sure that will be the last time I sing for you. Ha!

I’m not experienced at all with lots of herbs, but the first thing I thought when you identified the menthol lip balm came to mind!
Great freshness Goodness Fairness

Discovered your channel a couple weeks ago. I wish I found you sooner! I guess I’ll have to play back your old videos to catch up :)
I'm so glad you found me! I hope you find plenty to enjoy. Thanks for watching.
I really enjoyed today’s upload from you and Mr Tidbits. God bless you and your harvest this year.
I'm so glad! It was a fun video for me to make.
Loved this, inspiring
Love all the ideas. Thank you ❤

@@TIDBITSandCompany Oh, great idea,I keep meaning to get some. That’s the only way to know for sure.
When you make the mint extract, what happens to the vodka? Does it get poured off?
Maybe an extract with the menthol...or a rub like Vick's? Also could it work as an essential oil in a diffuser. Or....an ingredient for a throat lozenge? Wow.....now I want to grow some😂❤
That is what I thought would work too. Could be useful during cold and flu season for sure! Thanks for watching!
You could make shower bombs with the menthol…a great way to open up the sinuses. Or your own epsom salts for soaking in the bath when sick. 😊
That is a great idea! I bet it would feel so good when you have a cold.
