I think Goldenrod was the one that finally made me think ok that's it, God has surrounded us with medicine and food, it's everywhere and we struggle to weed it out and plant other food 😆 Thanks for another great video, when there is a wild plant I want to know about and I see your video I know it will be filled with what I want to know and then some.
You are so kind - thank you. Yes, God has provided us with all we need! When I hear some people using that word "invasive". I automatically think - why? Is that plant telling you that you need it!?
Watching more Goldenrod videos while I sip some tea made with some leaves I foraged just yesterday. Love your video. So much more information that I’ve learned for it’s edibility. Can’t wait to try some of these. Thanks so much.
Amazing .. truly! Flowers just blow my mind! And to think our ancestors knew these things and were made to forget the sacredness of Nature! 👀 .. thank you for sharing this beautiful knowledge! 💙💭
THANK YOU for providing such valuable information on the beautiful plant that grows on our property. Recently I read that Goldenrod is helpful at preventing kidney stones of which I passed one of those little devils this past Spring. So, in addition to eating a low oxalate vegan diet, I am searching for anything that prevents kidney stones other than consuming animal-based calcium sources.
Thank you for your kind words! Yes, goldenrod has been known to help with preventing stones. It isn't just calcium that is needed to help prevent stones because calcium on its own can't do it. It needs magnesium, potassium and sodium as well. All these minerals are commonly found in a variety of wild foods.
We have this everywhere here! Ma Gran used to call it the Suns Kisser! I've only ever had it in tea but you've sparked my imagination with it! You have such essential knowledge which is not common in society! Aint you magic! Cheers 👍
As a teenager with very high allergy symptoms, I had the scratch test. My eyes were very red and itchy and so was my nose. I was told that I was allergic to rag weed. I thought that it was the same as the golden rod. Thank you for clarifying.
I really found your video very informative and enjoyable. I was trying to identify some leafs on some plants that have taken over my front garden area. So now I know to pull them out before they get 6 feet tall and take over all of it. I am hoping the bea bombs and rabeccas will come back then.
I get the need for the disclaimers of consulting a doctor, yet most have little knowledge of medicinal plants. Combined with the fact they make no money on it, they seldom will recommend anything that cuts into the bottom line. Case in point; the recent virus and the stiffling of cheap effective therapeutic treatments. I have little faith in corporate medicine, and for good reason. Bottom line; do your own research and choose your doctor very very carefully!!
I tend to gravitate to saying "qualified health professional" - this can be an ND, Herbalist, etc. 5 years ago I was diagnosed with OA in both knees - - I am healed and my doctor knew I could do it because she once practised Ayurveda when she lived in India.
God gave us the remedies, we just need to find them. It's sad that the medical professional have not been trained in these ............. But rather the man made ones that have so many side effects with them.

Thank you for your vdo.I was harvest golden rod and want to know how I can keep longer time so I desire to freeze them your vdo help me to use more as food.
I have a dehydrator and would like to dry it for tea .Do you have a video on that so i can learn please . Also it may be worth mentioning to make sure you dont collect any from areas where things may have been sprayed or gotten road run offs , just to make sure its safe and clean . Correct ? Thanks for your help 😊
Correct - always from a clean location. I can work on a video of that for you!!! Give me about a week and if you are subscribed and have hit the bell for notification of uploads - you'll have it!
can you take fresh flowers and leaves and boil them and make tea and get the benefits from the tea? or will the heat kill off all the beneficial chemicals?
Historically it has been used for wounds, yes. Making the oil is what you need to do first - then the salve. How much you need depends on how much you want to make. Technically on plant will suffice.
Thank you for this informative video of an abundant visible plant every late summer. I heard on a recorded speech that U of Montreal did a study of goldenrod & found it safer & more effective for men than Viagra. Not that I need it, just sayin. You've taught me what I can use it for.
I'm in Ottawa Ontario and I love foraging. So much is growing all around. Free food and free medicine! Sirach 38:4 "GOD created medicines from the earth, and a sensible person will not hesitate to use them."
Hello Kim! I've done a couple of wild edible walks in Ottawa! I always love to enjoy the serenity at Mer Bleu! I like it there - but it is a 4 hour drive away. Yes, He has given us so much!
i am in pain daily.. i noticed wildlife and mother nature kept planting things that could help me and started learning more. over 10 kinds of plants and i lost track now are edible and medicinal in my backyard garde .
If we continue to give the power and permission to heal ourselves over to a corrupt industrial medical complex we will stay sick physically and mentally.
I just nibbled on about three little teeny leaves near the flowers and they had a really bad flavor, is that normal for goldenrod? Because if it is it's not very edible as far as flavor goes. I just ingested a small amount to see if my body can take it. If I have any problems I won't be doing that again LOL. I picked a whole bunch of it today all the flour heads that were open and starting to open because I wanted to make some tinctures etc or I may just take the flowers that I picked and scatter them up and down the ditch in front of the property so that they can start growing out there so I don't have to look for them later I can grow them where I need them. I have asthma and arthritis really bad. I also get swollen feet and I have urinary issues in that eye almost need to wear a absorbent pad. So I'm hoping it can help with that. Cuz I really don't want to have to wear a sanitary napkin or a diaper later if I can take goldenrod and maybe alleviate that problem that's one thing less I got to worry about. I am very interested in the oil to make a muscle rub so I'm going to check that video out now.
I make vinegar with goldenrod - I love it!! The taste is not really pleasant and although some enjoy it as tea, I truly feel the the vinegar is best. Be sure to use organic apple cider vinegar!! If you have OA - email me and I can send you what I did to reverse mine! info (at) ediblewildfood (dot) com
It didn't make me sick at all I just didn't care for the flavor, I may try it with the apple cider vinegar but I don't really care for that flavor either LOL. So I don't know I'm thinking maybe mulch it up soak it in apple cider vinegar and then use the vinegar to mix in with an oil to make a vinaigrette maybe? We'll see how it works out. I just strained my Mullein tincture and I'm taking that now for my breathing issues I hope to find some more Mullein before the season is over. And I've made a basil oil that's soaking now I got about another month. Basil is a good herbal as well as an excellent flavoring maybe I could mix the goldenrod with the basil oil. I think at this point I just need to experiment a little but there's tons and tons of goldenrod right down the street so if I can find good practical uses here for me then I have an excellent resource I do need to plant Mullein though,. I want to get that to grow wild all over around here
this is the most best video ever..i have a patch of goldenrod and onky the bees use it so far i brought some flowers inside in a vase and now i see there is so mich more to do with it

@@daniellapain1576 I agree - - many things in a grocery store contain dangerous ingredients that are not good for our health. Tons of free food out there to nourish us!!!
What information do have about goldenrod and palatability for farm amimals? I cut and field dried and baled a 20 acre field of predominate goldenrod and my sheep didn't care to eat any of the stems, leaves or flowers.
Do you wash the leaves, flower before drying them just like you said ragweed is wind driven and gets on it. Should they be soak in salt water like most other vegtables are done to get the bugs off of them?
I always let my foraged good sit outside for a half hour or so - that way any insects have time to leave. I have never washed goldenrod. I rarely wash any of my foraged goods unless they are low to the ground and there is dirt on them. (I have never soaked any veggies in salt water.)
I have to say that to cover my bases. Some people may have a reaction to this or another plant, the plant may contraindicate with medications a person may be taking, etc. Regular doctors tend to have no no knowledge about plants. Naturopaths do.
