Comfrey
I have Oregano growing outside in a pot. It comes back every year. I planted Comfrey root late Fall last year. It grew to 4 inches so I covered with leaves all winter. This Spring it has exploded with growth with beautiful flowers. It’s bringing in the honey bees too.
Can we order Comfrey starts to ship?
@Fancythat
WOW!¡!¡!¡!¡
I have some comfrey that I have been growing for 2 years. This is year 3.
NEVER have any blooms.
Where's your store?
Please make this into a series! Do 5 herbs per video until you get through them all.
This is a great idea!!
I agree I love the idea
Great idea!
Yes!!
Oh my goodness! Was thinking the same thing. This was great! :) Do them all!
Jen, do you, or will you ever do a live demonstration of actually processing/preserving these five herbs, teaching others on how to do it. I, for one, would love to see it done, in person. I believe the time is coming when we will have to rely on what we can do for ourselves. Love this video, your Ky sub. ❤😊
Great idea...please show us how to preserve these herbs & start our own medicine cabinets 🙏
Agree
Growing comfrey, Yarrow, lemon balm, oregano, calendula, mullein, lemon grass, borage for the first time this year. Guess I’ll go find me some turmeric.😊
Growing your own medicine and food is so rewarding enjoy your journey! I am loving it and wish I had started years ago. ❤
Henriette's Herbal, an online & free resource, will fully inform you on lesser known attributes of mullein.
BTW, mullein, yarrow chicory (when very young) & many other wild herbals, transplant beautifully.
I absolutely loved this video. Please do more of them. I'd love to see exactly how you preserve them. We need to go back more to natural healing.
enjoyed this. FYI, my endocrinologist recommends gargling with a few drops of oregano oil in about a 1/4 cup of water regularly, but especially when you feel a cold coming on. I've been lazy and got a bad cold *lasted 10 days*, remembered the oregano oil gargle, two days later, no more sore throat, all that sinus crap was GONE...I won't be forgetting that again. Gargle, don't swallow
Organic apple cider vinegar with the mother scientifically proven kills strep. Recipe" steep herbal tea, cool down, add 2 t. ACV, 2t. Honey , gargle 5-10 seconds .spit out. Gargle again and swallow. Do this every hour for the day. Can also drink the tea. I NEVER go see a doc for antibiotics. I drink tea, gargle spit gargle swallow for 24 hrs. I drink the tea for an additional 24hrs. Works every time.
I was thinking the oil of oregano drops under my tongue and switching it down water trust me I never let it get to the tastebuds on the top of my tongue. Now I buy the capsules same company Oreganol and if I need to click one and apply it. It’s still fresh last longer than an open small bottle of oregano oil.
My top 5 herbs (most for cooking) are: garlic, basil, rosemary, parsley and oregano. And yes, I like this type of video. Would like to see top 5 tomatoes, peppers, etc.
Any plans for a book about how to make oils, tinctures, powders and salves? And their uses?
Great video & information. Zack and Jen - you are very good teachers, especially together! Clear information that is easily followed. Plus I really enjoy how the two of you interact - FUN! Jen, you have the best smile!
I love this so much! There are a zillion herbs growing wild on my property and I’ve planted more, but even though I use it daily I haven’t grown turmeric. I’m an RN but always turn to plant medicine for my family and animals. I appreciate you!
Love this 'Porch Time with the Stivers' style video.
The information was very interesting (and some of it was quite surprising). Thank you for all the lessons you teach us xx
Great video! Plus, I love the way you two look and smile at each other! Just makes my day! Y’all not only grow herbs and food, you grow a lot of love and it shines through in your videos! Great family! So glad I found you! Also, going to try my hand at growing as many of these top 5 as I can!
~~Lisa
Like you, I find it difficult to stop at five. This what I'm currently growing: tumeric, ginger, basil, thyme, oregano and garlic.
Please do more of these types of videos.
We moved in September. I dug up 3 of the 5 comfrey plants and put them all in 1 3 gallon plastic tote to move. They are still in there. (Getting planted this week!!) I thought for sure they were all dead this winter, and then they started growing about a month ago!
Top five herbs I will always grow:
Parsley, for stomach, potatoes, soups, etc..
Sage, for poultry, sausage, smudging.
Rosemary. Grilling, marinades, oils, steam for sinus issues
Thyme. Cooking just about everything and my pollinators love it!
Dill. Pickles, pickles, more pickles please! My swallow tail butterflies love to lay eggs on it so I dedicate some for the butterflies. I've got at least 5 more!
How do you use rosemary for sinus issues?
This is my first year growing garlic. I was so excited when I saw the shoots popping up! I also started growing some herbs last year. I plan on growing more as time goes on. I would LOVE to hear more about herbs and tinctures!
I love this style of video where you chat about the how to grow, harvest and use plants 🪴❤ Thank you 😊
You can also let a few garlic flowers produce bulbils, little tiny garlic bulbs. You can plant these in the Fall, harvest in the late Spring, and replant to have a garlic bulb the next July.
I absolutely loved this! I’ve been wanting to add medicinal herbs to our garden but wasn’t sure where to start (it feels a bit overwhelming with so many options!) so this was SO helpful! I’d love more videos like this!
Love love love herbs. My favorite thing to grow. Like y'all its almost too hard to pick 5! lol. Growing a lot of herbs this year. My #1 is hands down Oregano. #2 Chocolate Mint. And not in any order, Calendula, Lemon Balm, Ginger. So many more I love and grow. Comfrey, Garlic, Basils of all kinds. Mints of all kinds. Echinacea . Hibiscus. Wormwood. Wild herbs like plantain, mullein, St John's Wort. Many more. Yeah, see, no way I can pick just 5. :)
I love all herbs but my favorite ones are sage, oregano, dill, basil, dandelion, rosemary and thyme 😊
I love this type of video --thanks so much for doing this, and I hope you do more. I'm 63, and just beginning my medicinal herbs adventure. I have a whole area set aside for them this year, and have many different kinds started in my greenhouse. I think my favorites so far are lemon balm , chamomile, and peppermint. I do have a large bed of garlic growing, too!
Im 61 and getting into it also.
I love when you two " comfrey " mess up. Your a precious couple. Thanku
I started Basil, oregano, rosemary ,chives and dill last year... 1st time doing garlic last fall- need to do more!!. Love your comfrey salve!!! Time to grow my "herb area bigger!!
We need runner ups!!
"Next 5 in the top 40" Looked far and wide for this type of video in January when i was buying seeds.If yall could also show us how to use these at the end of the season!
I love all your videos! And I am new to apothecary and still pretty new at gardening. You provide a lot of great information! Thank you.
We have Wild Elderberries all over the place. I decided to order, through your link, a new variety of Elderberry. They only had Pocahontas in a 3 pack. So I ordered a Bob Gordon as a small rooted plant. Maybe this will help our Wild Ones as a companion. I have my netting ready this year! Last year I didn't get much, the Birds ate the majority. This was a WONDERFUL video! Please consider doing more!
We plan to visit your store soon. GOD bless
I don't think I could narrow it down to the top five! We're growing ALOT of new herbs this year and some of the the old favorites. I bought comfrey seeds from your shop and I'm so glad you mentioned they take a while to germinate...I was getting nervous! Lemon balm would be up there on my list, I just love it. The only one we do not have from your top 5 is turmeric but I think we need to make room for it! I am most excited about growing elderberries this year. I bought seeds from the Sacred Seed Co. last year and had no idea it took so long to get those babies going. But I read up on it and started them in July of 2022- seven months later they were ready to be potted up and now they're ready to be planted! Also thankful for y'all mentioning they love water as I was having a hard time deciding where they should go. We have two bushes that were established in our field but I want the new ones a little more accessible. Thanks for sharing!
New gardener here, growing: Bee Balm, Borage, Calendula, Catnip, Comfrey, Feverfew, Chamomile, Holy Basil, Horehound, Hyssop, Lemon Balm, Lemon Drop Spilatanthes, Marshmallow, Mothorwort, Mullein, Peppermint, Giant Turkish Plantain, Purple Coneflower, Spearmint, St. John's Wort, Stinging Nettles and Yarrow...in addition to my culinary herbs. Whew!
Great information in this video!
Got your comfrey seeds. I have 5 sprouts right now. They are good and healthy. Love oregano oil. It got me through the 2020 bug. I tell a lot of people about it. Moringa has been my go to for arthritis. Calendula is growing for the first time in my raised bed. Lemongrass is amazing as a tea. Love herbs!
How is your moringa growing? I so badly want one of those too.
This winter I ramped up my plant interest and wanting to grow for health reasons. Interesting that we already have some plants that are medicinal: shasta daisy, Willow, ajuga, hydrangea, catnip, strawberry leaves. I didn’t realize that garlic is planted in the Fall. We started it in February. I definitely will plant some in October. We have this year: 3 types of tomatoes, 3 types of peppers, stevia, lemon balm, lavendar, bee balm, peppermint, heal all, patchouli, 2 types of chamomile, ginger, yarrow, cosmos, zinnias, dill, onions, calendula, balloon flower, peony, 2 types basil, 2 types thyme, oregano, parsley, carrots, lettuce. We are so excited
Love these informational videos!! Cant wait to hear about all the other herbs you grow! ❤
Loved this video! Please do more. I'm new to growing medicinals so this was a big help! I've tried and failed with feverfew and arnica. Successful with calendula. Found you through the Fit Farmer, who my hubby and I met last weekend at Mountain Readiness event. We're in zone 6b too in western NC. Thank you so much for the info.
I love this style of a vlog…I would like to hear more on tips and tricks on growing different things…especially broccoli. For some reason I struggle with this veggie
Thank you so much for this video. I love them. I agree with others. Make more videos with 5 more herbs per video. I have learned so much!
Oregano, thyme, sage, yarrow, and comphrey. Also have tons of echinacea growing for medicinal purposes and just because the flowers are so beautiful and it flowers profusely ALL summer long (polinators love it too!)... a must have in any garden!
I grow the most Basil. Love the smell and making tea with it. I have a pot of Oregano too.
Y’all are just wonderful.
I love your smiles and spirit, you inspire me to continue to do my best with my garden and health.
Will y’all be at the Baker Creek planting festival? Would love to meet y’all.
Starting points are always good because I remember starting out, it gets overwhelming to try and do it all !!!
I wish I had a relationship like you two ❤
Blessings
I love this video and hope you make more. I'm just starting my medicinal garden this year and I'm so excited.
Great information. I need to get some turmeric. For the garlic, that I have been growing for years, I ferment the scapes. It’s so good! I even put some in the blender, making it even more versatile.
I am so fortunate to live close to a major creek where elderberry is abundant.
Lemon Basil is my favorite to dry and use for cooking. I use it all winter long in soups.
Thank you for doing this video please do more on herbs and medicinal herbs!!
We plant comfrey around our fruit trees. Bc the roots are so strong and grow so deep they help the tree roots grow deeper.
We love it there too bc it brings in more helpful bugs.
GREAT VIDEO!
Can you make a series dedicating a video to each herb you grow, how you process it, and what you use it for? That would be a fabulous series!
I grew garlic for the first time this year.I planted in November and harvested last week. I'm in love😍
Your comfrey and calendula salves have been about all I have needed for YEARS!
Thank you for sharing this information!! Blessings to you all!!!
Thank you so much!!! I have been wanting this information.
I wish you all would do a book on herbs, and medicinal purposes and cooking! Ohh how I need a book like that.
Thank you!!!🤗
You two are a joy to watch, no matter your format. This was fun and informative!!
I think this is the first video that I watched from this channel. I enjoy this content since it is a current interest for me. Thank you for sharing!
Top 5 in previous years, garlic, oregano, rosemary, thyme, not sure if basil is medicinal but we sure do love it. This season, im revamping a bed from flowers to an herb, tea, and medicinal garden. Im putting in the things mentioned, plus chamomile, echinecea, my peppermint in a pot.
Garlic, of course!! Love basil, all kinds, sage, rosemary. A new fave that I started growing last year is marjoram! Let’s be honest, I love them all! Thank you for always giving us the best info!❤
Had a c section 18 years ago and have never since felt like myself in shape beneath my belly button. Tha k you, its time to get back my flat tummy again.
Garlic scape compound butter is amazing!
Lavender, calendula, chamomile comfrey & garlic. Favorites to grow
This would make a fantastic series
Loved this video! I watch when I can but I love to garden and also love to hear how others do things as well thank you for the detailed video, there was actually one I did not no about which was oregano very cool!
I grow mullen and goldenrod to make sure it's not sprayed with chemicals great stuff!
I LOVED this video! So very informative. The explanation of each herb was perfect. All of the videos you two produce are of great content, keep them coming! GOD bless
Love this video! I want to grow herbs that I can use medicinally but have always been unsure of myself in how to make salves & tinctures. Would love more videos like this one!!
Great info. Even if I can’t grow it I know where I can get them!! Thanks guys!! Love your store.
My grandma was cutting off some weeds & told me that she was going to make her some poke salad. I called my mom & told her grandma had lost her mind. She just laughed at me. I don't think I will ever forget that. ( 20 years ago) 😆
Wonderful information to get our herb garden started. So important to know what to use and how. Thank you!
Garlic is one of my most important things to grow and I can never grow enough love love love it 🧄
Garlic scapes can be caned as well like pickles or anything else like that they’re delicious
I grow a lot of parsley, fennel and dill for the swallowtail caterpillars (eventually butterflies to help pollinate), I love the smell of rosemary and I grow a bunch of garlic. Like you said, that is 5...I grow a bunch more that I love.
I appreciate so much you sharing this with us. ❤
Elderberry flowers are such a good medecine too… for cold, etc. it’s so delicious too. You can make sirop with it too. Teas, etc … We had a few bushes on our last property. I used to harvest 1/2 for the flowers.
Comfrey grows well in Florida, that’s #1.
Loved this video! Keep ‘em coming!
Love it, please continue!
