  • Come along with me today as I harvest yarrow from my summer garden for storage and medicinal use on my homestead! This is definitely one of my must utilized medicinal herbs, and this video got me thinking I should do a video on my top 5 favorite homestead herbs to use and grow.

    Can use a paper towel lightly misted w/white vinegar to clean out grinder. Helps remove taste/odor when grinding ‘stronger’ flavored herbs and veggies. (Peppers, anise, celery, onion, mints, etc). Thanx for vid! Be blessed!

    Excellent presentation you've put together here, thank you so much for the demonstration and information!
    I observed this "weed" growing wild behind my house a back in 2021. In summer of '22 I identified it as yarrow, a plant that I'd heard of before but knew little about, other than "it has medicinal properties". Fast forward to _this_ summer and now my knowledge of this little " weed" has grown faster than the plant itself! I've been methodically harvesting, drying, and storing it for the past six to eight weeks, while searching for other ways to prepare and utilize it. I really like your powdered quick-clot idea, I think I'm going to give it a shot!
    Thank you again for the wonderful presentation, I'm happy to have found this video and I'll definitely be checking out more of your channels content👍🏻

    I just found this growing wild today in my field. Thank you for this information. Question, Do you rinse it before you dry it?

    • @thefiresidefarms
      @thefiresidefarms  ปีที่แล้ว

      It wouldn't be a terrible idea to rinse it. I dont...but I also know what I spray in my garden haha. Something near a roadside or if you use chemical fertilizers, you might wanna rinse it

    • @thefiresidefarms
      @thefiresidefarms  29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes every part of the plant is usable...but the leaves and flowers will have the most concentrated beneficial compounds.
