PLEASE NOTE: I am getting a LOT of questions of people asking about leaves for berries related to blackberries and more. For those related to blackberries, especially very closely related, I would assume that they benefits would be at least VERY similar but have not looked into each individual one for myself and do not have the time to look up each one so what I suggest is do a bit of digging for yourself for the particular berries you grow or grow wild around you. If you are unsure how to go about that, here is a video I put together to help you find what you are looking for: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2rVZWukitd2b5I

[@crissycrutchfield331]

Ferment the leaves in order for it to smell and taste like blackberries. Take fresh leaves, wash and pat dry, take a rolling pen or the bottom of a cup (use what you have) and bruise the leaves. Put them in a jar but don’t pack them tightly. Label and place in dark cabinet for two weeks. When you open the jar in two weeks it will smell like blackberries. Now dehydrate or dry in very low heat oven. Then store for tea. It tastes amazing!

[@toneenorman2135]

No salt? What ferments them? Thank you.

[@toneenorman2135]

Would you say the young,tender or older,more dark green is better for fermentation. And,you do nothing but crush,slightly? Can it be used in any way other than drying it? Would it kill the fermentation to make a hot tea. Not boiling,of course. Thank you!

[@erinwarmuskerken9604]

@@toneenorman2135 I've never done this with blackberry leaves but generally speaking, salt is only a safeguard against pathogens, not actually necessary for fermentation. My guess is there's probably natural yeasts on the leaves that ferment them, and enzymes activated by the crushing that contribute to the flavor change.

[@roringusanda2837]

Ahh, like tea leaves!

[@SH-tb3ls]

No you are amazing! LOL. Thanks for the idea! I bet this makes the tannins in it only work for you in a good way even in higher doses. Just my educated guess though. Don't know for sure. I'd still try not to over do anything, but I would take this with every meal until my numbers were back under control if diabetic as vinegar really worked for my aunt.

My great granddaddy was a country veterinarian in rural Texas. He taught me to feed my mares on dew berry leaves when their foals had the scours (diarrhea) from the mare's foal heat. After a mother horse (mare) gives birth to her baby (foal), she often becomes ready to be bred again while still nursing her baby. This hormonal cycle frequently gives the baby diarrhea because of the changes in the mother's milk and the hormones in it. Dew berry plants are plentiful in the woods and along the creeks in Texas, so Grandaddy Ed would tell the farmers to use what was free and at hand for their horses. He also said it was good for the mothers to help them make more milk and be calmer. I know it made a difference for my foals.

[@Namasix]

So good to know! I wonder if it would work on calves too.

[@1J_R]

all these natural ways are being forgotten. being replaced by un-natural methods. chemicals and gmo to destroy God's creations.

[@karenf9137]

That’s really interesting. Sometimes I think vets are the smartest doctors (healers) of all the medical professions… and often very unselfish.

[@cajunhickchick7337]

My grandparents made a tea of the roots and added it to the calves milk if they had scours.

My privacy fence is lined with thornless blackberries, raspberries and blueberries. I have young Goji berry bushes too - 7 of them. I need to see if you’ve got any videos about those.

[@feltingme]

Blackberry lef cold infusion works for diarrhea as well. We went camping, and one of use got diarrhea -very bad timing. But just putting wild blackberry leaves into drinking water helped very quickly.

[@Namasix]

A few years ago, I found instructions on DIY blackberry leaf tea that said to wash, crush & ferment the leaves 4-5 weeks in a mason jar. I put mine in my car windshield and then dehydrated it. The tea has a very pleasant fruity flavor and works like a charm for stopping diarrhea, at least for me. It also helps soothe my stomach if a food just doesn't "set right". Good luck with your blackberry tea adventure!

[@johnlord8337]

Back in the 70s, I went out making my own natural Pacific Northwest beachy tea mix. Raspberry-berry/leaf/green cane, blackbery-berry/leaf/green cane, rose-flowers/hips/leaf/green cane, plantain, mullein, mallow, dandelion, green pine needles, cranberry-berryleaf, pcean sand dune wild strawberry-berry/leaf, hibiscus-flower/leaf, blueberry-berry/leaf, clover-flower/leaf, pigweed amaranth leaf, lambsquarters amaranth leaf, ... air-dried and crumbled. When made into a tinctured tea - tasted like hay - but the effects were awesome. 25 years later sitting in the folk's (hot) attic in jars - they were bundled and sold as tea packets (unbeknownst to me) - to the local beachy people. One lady came back with such joy, "where can I get some more of THAT ! ?" It had begun fixing her up when all other medcines and pills were non-productive. Mother explained that I was no longer around - and that it was wild harvested. Still had the kick of Granny Clampett's Spring Tonic ! A lot of noted Vit C, but all the other mix of vits, (essential and non-essential) amino acids, and minerals. If there had been any loquat, kumquat, orange, lemon, lime, and fig trees for fruit and leaves they would have also gone into the mix.

Thanks for this wonderful video. I was inspired by your dried mixed greens video from way back so have dried Nettle, dandelion, Raspberry, and Blackberry leaves which I used all winter by adding a mixed handful into my winter soups, stews and pasta sauces. Good also to fold into omelets. I also add them to rice once its cooked along with fresh green onions and frozen garden peas. I am planning to pick grape leaves to add to the mix and more herbs now that I have a fairly decent dark drying room set up. These seem to me to be far more nutrient rich than most anything found in the grocery stores these days. Love your channel even though I don't often comment.

I got my Blackberry plant at the end of season last year for $3 from Lowe's. I also got a hydrangea tree that was $90 originally but for $23. I love finding bargains. Try looking up to see if you can start a blackberry plant from the Blackberry seeds that you get in the grocery store. It may take a while for the plant or just order them.

[@gardengatesopen]

​@Di There's a very quick way to multiply your blackberry plants - without any seeds: Each blackberry cane will grow new roots practically anywhere on any cane to form a new plant. All it needs is warm, moist soil, & a couple of weeks time. Here's the steps: ▪︎Gently bend the blackberry stalk over until the middle of the stalk touches the ground. (Don't break it! It should bend easily enough.) ▪︎ Mark the spot it is touching the ground with a rock or something. ▪︎Make a mental note of where on the stalk it was touching the ground. Or mark the stalk with moist soil. ▪︎Now you can let the cane back up. ▪︎On the blackberry cane, (or stalk) find the nearest plant node to the spot which was touching the ground, again, and remember where the new spot is. (Plant Node - where leaves are emerging from the cane) ▪︎On the ground where the cane was touching, clear away any leaves, weeds, or grass, so you have bare soil where the plant touches the ground. ▪︎You won't need much clear space. Just about a square inch or 2. ▪︎Water the soil thoroughly in that new bare spot. ▪︎Once and for all, bend the cane back over, and where that plant node is, place it firmly onto the top of the soil. Not deep, just make sure one side of the cane is making good contact with the top of the soil. ▪︎Place a rock, or something else a bit heavy on top of the stalk to hold it in place. The object only needs to be heavy enough to hold the stalk down. ▪︎Walk away! ▪︎In no time at all (a week or 2) that blackberry stalk will have grown roots and rooted itself into the soil. ▪︎When the new roots are nice and strong, it's time to cut the newly rooted plant from the mother plant. ▪︎Make a cut between the original plant (mother plant) and the new roots. ▪︎Plant the newly rooted plant wherever you want it to grow. ▪︎You now have a whole new plant! And both canes will grow berries. This method can be done over and over to end up with as many plants as you wish.

Had too because the groundhog was destroyed the 2 rows I had now there's 20 plants going strong. I covered them all with oak leaves. Even my mother was surprised at how big they became. The leaves were the size of both arms put together about 2'.

Use them in teas with raspberry leaves and the dehydrated fruit. Very tasty with lemon and honey. Also use in a mixed green blend as you have shared. I think the leaf is just beautiful. Someone needs to breed a thornless variety be a small small compact herbaceous plant for borders. Thank you for sharing more about them. Always a pleasure spending a bit of the morning listening.❤

They have thornless varieties that I know one person uses as a border. I'd tell ya the name but they don't remember.

Living on ten acres in mountains of southern Oregon 👍🏽We have so much bounty on this land!!! I’m currently drinking blackberry tea, using fresh tender leaves. Last fall, we harvested the ‘rose hip’ and made jam, loaded with vitamin C, among other vitamins. We will be using our fresh raspberry leaves next. Then strawberry’s!!!

[@RainCountryHomestead]

Yes, fresh is great for any herb in season, no need to dehydrate them for that/ I dehydrate for teas through the time when such things are not growing

I used to add them to my morning smoothies, but now I have converted to juicing, and I will be adding a handful of these to my daily juicing.

Thank you Heidi and everyone. I am learning a lot. I have a small black berry plant that I am nurturing, we are going into the winter. Hopefully I will get a great harvest in Spring. What can I do with the Golden berry leaves? we call them them cape gooseberry in South Africa, I have lots of those .
