I have Comfrey everywhere now ..Another way I use it is for sprains , muscle aches , bruises , etc. Comfrey was known to the Native Americans as Knit Bone for it's ability to aid in the ' knitting ' or healing together of fractures & breaks in the bone . I make a poultice of it for immediate use - or - you can make the poultice ahead for emergencies by emulsifying it in a blender or processor . Pour it out in portions onto sheets of Saran Wrap , folding the ends over & gently flatten it . Stack several of these on top of each other & slide into a freezer bag , then freeze . I keep them in a lidded plastic container in the freezer . Then when a sprain , fall , etc happens on the homestead , you have immediate , soothing 1st aid on hand . Just remove the plastic wrap & apply to the wound One caution is never apply Comfrey to deep puncture or open wound , because it can heal so fast that the skin can heal over , before the inside of the wound & you risk infection . THIS IS AN AMAZING PLANT FROM THE LORD .

Back in 1978 we were living on a mountain six miles from the nearest school bus stop, so were home teaching our kids except for twice a week when we took them down because we felt it was important that they get some ‘socialization.’ Picked them up from school one Thursday and the six year old had a scrape on her wrist, didn’t think anything of it (this was before we knew that schools didn’t do anything with cuts or scrapes). Touched her on Sunday and she screamed, looked at her wrist and she had a red line going from the scrape to a sack under her arm. Didn’t have a phone so went down the hill to a neighbor who had one, called the local ‘hippy doctor’ (only doc in the area). He said to put comfrey on it and bring her in in the morning. I had no idea what comfrey was, but the neighbor grew it for his rabbits and gave me several leaves. Not knowing what else to do with it I put a leaf over the scrape and wrapped gauze around it. Checked it an hour later and the leaf was black and wilted. Put on another one. When I put her to bed, I put the rest on. Checked in the morning, the red line and sack under her arm was completely gone. The comfrey had drawn out all of the poison. Have grown comfrey ever since, won’t be without it. Mom had arthritis really bad in her back and neck. After we discovered comfrey, she started drinking one cup of tea every day for her arthritis (didn’t cure it but she could sure tell the difference in the pain level if she didn’t take it). Took about a week before she started noticing a difference. Took it every day for 30 years before she died of breast cancer at 84 years old, never had a problem with her liver. I think the key is moderation (as in all things but people need to decide what’s best for them and not take chances if they aren’t comfortable with it). I make a sun tea with dried comfrey and mint (sweetens the drink) and will drink a cup once or twice a month when I notice arthritis stiffening up my fingers.

I’ve dropped comfrey leaves directly into my rain barrel so the water becomes fertilized for my gardens. I think the compost tea would be a better solution for knowing how much to add to plants. When my daughter broke a small bone in her leg, she bathed with some of my comfrey infused oil to help it heal & it worked! I’ve used the straight infused oil on my achy legs.

Thank you for this information. I love seeing your simple family life. You all look so healthy and happy. I have been growing comfrey for three seasons now. I made salve by heating dried, powdered comfrey, olive oil and beeswax in a small crock pot. It made three four- ounce jars. Came in handy as, a few weeks later, I slipped in the garden and broke my left arm. I used the salve on the arm, as close as I could get to the fracture. By the time I went back to the orthopedist, he checked my x-ray, then my chart a couple of times. He said, "You sure are a fast healer. You are about two weeks ahead of expected progress. I told him about the comfrey. He said to keep it up. It was really helping me. Im going to try it on my arthritis. A true gift from the Lord. 😊

Hi RuthAnn...I just watched a video of yours from last year where you were bemoaning the purslane that was taking over areas of your garden. Have you ever eaten it? It doesn't taste bad at all, and in a salad with other greens/veg it would be great. Purslane is best used for human consumption as a green vegetable rich in minerals and omega-3 fatty acids [20]. Omega-3 fatty acid is a precursor of a specific group of hormones. It may offer protection against cardiovascular disease, cancers, and a number of chronic diseases and conditions throughout human life. If you haven't tried it you might consider it ...think of the ways you could disguise it 😉

A lot of plants have roots that go very deep, mining nutrients & distributing them through the plants. What makes comfrey so useful is that the leaves have very little cellulose, meaning they decompose quickly, especially in water. This comfrey tea is an excellent fertiliser, which I use in my fruit & vegetable garden, in partnership with seaweed, woodash & composted animal manure.

Thanks for sharing about both your family roots and comfrey. Now I know I should not just start a comfrey plant without thinking about future growth. That reminded me of the kudzu growing across the road from me when I lived a few years in AL. I live in NW WI, and grew up in this area. My grandparents were small dairy farmers, so I grew to love rural life. One of my great great grandmas moved with her father from Switzerland to NW WI near the Mississippi River. They were Mennonite and left Switzerland at a time when the Pope was hanging heads of dissenters on stakes leading to Rome. I live among Amish and Mennonites in my area. I too think it's good to pass good old ways on to new generations. Like you, my family no longer is Mennonite, but most of the family including myself, still loves the Lord with all our hearts.

Comfrey is an introduced plant to North America from Europe(most likely Southern England).

Symphytum officinale or "Comfrey" is they garden plant referred to in this video with the pinkish flowers. Now, they do have many similar properties as they are in the Boraginaceae family..

I so enjoy your videos. You mentioned that you do not worry about external use of comfrey. Be sure that when you get blood work done, you check for your liver function, since the active ingredient in comfrey gets absorbed by the skin and has to be cleared by the liver. I "discovered" comfrey about a year ago and use it about every 5-6 weeks on my feet and ankles, both of which have been broken over the years. For the first time in 30 years, I have been free of pain! More evidence of how good God is!!!!!

Very interesting! Unfortunately I don't know where to get tallow because I live in a large city, but your comfrey lotion is very interesting. I do garden and have quite a few comfrey plants, so I'll be rewatching this video on all your suggestions for this wonderous plant. How do you use dehydrated comfrey? I dehydrate a lot in the summer and fall. I dehydrate herbs including sage and parsley, kale, chard, collard greens, etc. I make up a nice batch of dried parsley, kale, chard, greens and spinach and put them through the processor until they are a powder. When making soups and stews a nice helping of the powder goes in for extra health. I even put some in my smoothies. I like to save the skins from the tomatoes and dehydrate them so I can add a bit of flavoring to many recipes where I don't want to add a lot of tomatoes. I can't wait to listen to more of your videos, Kate! Thank you for your transparency and generosity!

I really enoyed your video on the uses of comfrey. I have been using mine for many years as compost tea and also for a mulch around my larger plants. My family have been growing comfrey for over 60 years but unfortunately, when we first had access to it we had no idea how to use it other than a Spring tonic for our animals. I also used to dry it and have it available to my rabbits for a winter treat. Just something I would like to mention, although you are correct in saying comfrey is almost impossible to get rid of once you have got it,we made the mistake of tilling over some ground where the comfrey was growing, and of course that was the worst thing we could have done to get rid of it. It just took off and grew like crazy. As it was so prolific it was hard to get other crops to grow because the comfrey would choke out the plants we were trying to encourage. We finally found a way to eliminate the comfrey and although we only wanted to get it under control, we almost lost it forever. The secret weapon we used were sheep. It seems they grazed so close to the ground the comfrey was eaten off at the roots and never did recover. Thankfully we managed to keep a few plants in a contained area for our own use. Over the years I have become much wiser and better educated regarding the uses of comfrey and use it now for broken bones, sprains, inflammation as well as making it into salves and lotions for skin health. I am still learning as I know there are many other uses for the comfrey plant that I haven't explored yet.

I've done many of the same things with comfrey, and grown it since the 70s. There is a variety that doesn't spread as much - thinking of getting that one for the garden i share with my daughter's family! In the mid 90s i was in Alaska at a fly- in cooking camp, and our chef splashed boiling water on his foot whilst making dinner! He got his shoe off and plunged it in cold water, then went on with dunner! We had a doc with an elder client who treated our (2nd degree burn under the shoe tongue) and put a burn bandage on.... When that came off several days later, i offered him the calendula- comfrey salve friends sent with me, and lavender essential oil! I'd drip a few drops of oil on, and he would apply the salve. The lavender have immediate pain relief, and aided the purge herbs in generating healthy skin. I'm a massage therapist, and was giving healing sessions with my hands several inches above the wound daily, and it healed quickly.

My name for the product is not as elegant as yours, ha ha, but my garden really enjoys all the nutrients. I treat my plants in my veggie garden about every 3 or 4 weeks during our season here in VT. I've read that comfrey tea has a lot of magnesium, and many of the nutrients that cow manure has as well. An amazing plant!

I'm so happy to have found your channel! I love your comfrey video. Now, I've got to get some growing here. That will be a huge challenge because of the type of ground we have. I look forward to learning more from you.
