Autumn Chores

So many Autumn Chores to be done in between cold winds and heavy showers. Getting our winter fuel stored safely, painting the house and collecting seeds are just a few of those chores. Seeds are so important to keeping the herb garden going. My herb courses can all be found here - and my course, Herbal Health for Women is here too - www.danusirish...
Of course, the end of Autumn and the beginning of Winter is celebrated at Samhain and if you would like to know more about this wonderful pagan festival have a look at my Wise Woman Way training course. This is a transpersonal course for healing and wisdom and follows the Celtic Wheel of the Year working with druidic and shamanic techniques. You can find out more here - www.danusirish...
If you would like to know more about the wild herbs in our hedgerows, go to the shop and have a look at my books, The Weed Handbooks volume 1 and 2; and our card sets are in the shop too. www.danusirish...
Thanks to Lol as ever for filming, editing and music. Lol is on YT too - / @lolhardiman5247 and this is his website - lolhardimanmus...
If you are interested in having your horoscope cast or any kind of astrological guidance, contact Francis La Manna at noozbuffet.com and here too - [e-mail]
Thanks so much for watching - have a wonderful cosy week and let me know how you prepare for winter. xx

I use a wood stove for heat with no guilt. I love the cozy warmth of the stove heat, and it saves me at LEAST $100 a month during the winter. Enjoy your fires. 🔥 HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thank you and thank you! No guilt here although some want me to feel it😂 Enjoy your cosy stove xx

[@marysmith9107]

You are a brave and wise woman for speaking the truth. Bless you

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

It's just common sense. Plant trees, feed the soil and eat seasonally and locally. Solutions are so simple but don't make anyone money xx Have a good week there xx

[@rhondacraven1351]

I 100% agree with you on turf burning. We burn wood which is local to us. We are fighting to stop the windmills in our ocean here in Maine. We have dead whales washing ashore on a weekly basis! The old ways are the best ways! ❤

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Oh no - that is so sad and heart breaking! Wishing you all the best in your fight and great success! xx

[@YarrowPressburg]

Hi, I’ve heard about all the whales, so sad! Green is certainly not green! No windmills here on this island in Pacific Northwest.

[@YarrowPressburg]

I sad your government is going for windmills, so ugly, noisy, and definitely not “green”.I live in a forest, and burn wood, at 69yrs, I’m not fond using the chainsaw, but it is electric, so no gasoline, which I am allergic to. Bless you, think your videos are beautiful! I live on a tiny island in the Pacific Northwest of USA, no windmills here,thank goodness!

[@barbararoyal6139]

I am also from Maine and thank you for your comment 🍂

Love your turf pile,memories of people sitting around the fire in the crofts ,telling stories.I'm gathering sticks for the fire and the last of the foraging for medicines, jam making.Happy sunday Terri, from Scotland.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Happy Sunday to you too - gathering and foraging in brisk cool weather, lovely! xx

[@nannygranny9534]

Good morning Terri!! I so agree with you about having a fire. It is calming; it reconnects you to the past; it provides warmth and cooking as well AND it makes such a great atmosphere for reading another book!!😊 Like you right now is really busy putting the farm to bed for the winter. Putting bedding in the barns ti make them more cozy for the animals; stocking up on hay and firewood. The list goes on. Work never stops but will slow down and anticipating spring births.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

It is so nice when the work slows down cos you can just plod on through at no mad rush - its more enjoyable. Have a wonderful week xx

[@cherishd.8451]

Bog turf is magical...I don't like the turbines, it is difficult to dispose of the blades, no one ever thinks of the waste that is created by innovation, terribly sad for the birds

[@gail-elizabethengland7853]

Thank you for speaking to the issue of heating our homes. There is no one-size-fits-all solution to this issue. What works for me may not work for others. I live in a state that is 80% forested. We harvest diseased trees and those that have fallen in storms for firewood. Done consciously and reasonably we can help the environment, rather than destroy it. Living small and gently on the land works wonderfully well. I love your videos, they are beautiful and encouraging. Blessings to you both and all the animals!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

You are so right! some people seem to think that humans are detrimental to the land or the forest but the truth is, all beings can live symbiotically and can help each other. That is so common sensible, to harvest diseased and fallen branches - a win-win. xx

[@kakea8403]

❤ from SE Texas ❤ I took some kind of terrible illness, during the entire month of August. My garden went to shambles. I'm just now feeling up to trying to tackle that. I don't think a winter garden is going to happen, this year. Your garden/ home is so lovely! Autumn blessings! Sending my love!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I hope you feel better soon and don't feel bad if you can't put in a winter garden, you can forage for things and will be well and raring to go come spring! xx

[@huntressmma1822]

We have a wood stove, and a furnace mostly for back up. When I was little, we only had a stove and me, my parents and brother would go out every year and harvest, (only what we needed for the winter) trees off our plot of land. My dad was always very particular about which trees to take he would spend awhile accessing the health of the tree, the species and such. He was very good at keeping the forest healthy and being mindful not over harvesting. I learned how to use a chainsaw, split wood with a maul and get a good feel and understanding of the woods from him.🍁🍂

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Sounds wonderful - humans and trees helping each other and living in harmony. What a great education for you xx

[@lynnfinch-vq9mh]

Mom always said do fall and spring deep clean and there would be hardly none during the summer and winter. Also happy belated birthday 🎈 hope it was grand 🎉

[@pagangoddesstarot331]

Those fiberglass windmills are more detrimental! When they don't break down.

I had to laugh ,I think you and Peter must be kindred souls when it comes to winter fire fuel preparation ,he's never happier than when all our wood storage is full and ready for the cold weather . Local supply is so important our fire wood all comes from sustained(coppicing and managed felling) woods not 5 kms from us . Here in France if woodland is cleared for any reason ,double the area must be replanted . xx

That is great to hear. In Ireland it is mainly talk and the Green party stick in Sitka Spruce plantations and kid themselves they have created woodland. Local supply is a no-brainer! xx Hope you r wood in storage soon xx

We heat primarily with wood logs. We have 2 woodstoves, and on single/negative temps (F) days, we have an oil backup system. Honestly, more and more, I feel the majority of earth's issues stems from the absurd megalopolis cities and the unsustainable lifestyles of so many. From health problems to environmental problems, it seems to all boil down to a blatant disconnect/uncaring about what is real and what is not. I have moved now to just staying within my own world, living within what I know to be real. Thanks for another wonderful episode!!❤

Another beautiful day at your home, Terri. Nothing is as cosy as a fire in winter, I agree. In the autumn, I bake a lot, especially with apples. October 21st is Apple Day in the UK, and although I’m in Canada, I observe it every year. The birthplace of the McIntosh apple is not far from where I live so I always bake apple crisp with that special variety. The fall is probably my favourite season. Enjoy your turf fires. Such a comforting smell.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

The smells and tastes of Autumn create wonderful memories I think xx

[@marymiles9922]

It's gorgeous there! I agree on the wind turbines. They are far from being "green". Lots of impact to wildlife and humans. The blades go into landfills along with electric cars. It takes 60 gallons of oil(petroleum) to run those blades. Having turf, wood, solar is an excellent idea! You can't switch to one thing overnight. Ease into alternative energy. Blessings 🙏

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Good advice to ease in slowly and find what works for you and yes, the other side of "green" windmills is atrocious. Blessings to you too xx

[@karennewbury6430]

Another heartwarming video Terri and Lol. My husband always had a wood stove in the living room of our home, and it served us well for decades. His declining health prompted a shift to have a natural gas fireplace installed. We still have the wood stove as a backup heat source. He would gather the wood, or buy cords for delivery. He used a wood splitter. We would all help stack wood. He enjoyed the rituals of the pioneer experience. The natural gas fireplace was a necessary choice this past year. ... Terri, my grandmother used to have her unpaved country home lane way lined with painted white rocks on the sides, to reflect headlights for safe driving. She also had 2 crab apple trees and harvested these fruits to add to her pies. Such wonderful memories you have sparked from my memories. Take care both of you. Your videos are a welcome start to my Sunday routines. Blessings from Canada.

Fire IS Life. That's what people have forgotten. ...been made to forget... For Us: Free, unlimited, independent & regardless of weather, electricity, government or a bill owing to a mega corp - Cooking. Heat. Hot Water for bathing & laundry. Water purification. Light. Entertainment & Comfort...and exercise! Connection to Life outdoors while stuck inside all winter. All contained in a few pieces of wood, or turf. It's amazing really. ❤ Also some species of trees and plants that repopulate old forest require fire to germinate first. Not necessarily the insane fires of these days, but throughout history.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

And dead trees and branches are best burned as then we don't have to harm any trees for fuel. All the old stories tell us that people went foraging for wood, for branches. Woodlands need to be managed so that when the fires come they are effective rather than destructive xx

Good afternoon from Spain. Here it's very warm 🥵, I've been on the beach ⛱️ having lovely swims. I agree very much with you about putting on your chimney in winter. It makes you feel happy, also it used to be our ancestors TV. You can use it in many ways, such for cooking, having always hot water on the stove, you can also put fruit peelings that will give a delicious aroma to the house. I think that "wind farms are more contaminated than lighting the chimney, they cost a fortune and they are not sustainable, that's what they want to makes us think. Lots of love and happy October. On the second they will be a solar eclipse 😊😊.XX

[@moiragoldsmith7052]

I have an open fire albeit I don't use it often, I burn 'smokeless fuel' and I love collecting kindling from fallen trees etc. It brings me warmth and fresh air while collecting it, warmth whilst cutting it and warmth sitting in front of the fire. That carbon that it omits barely makes a dint in the atmosphere as opposed to private jets, speed boats, the heating of 4 houses etc. 👀 by those who shall not be named! 😂. ENJOY your lovely traditional cosy fire Terri and Lol. ❤

Yeah - THOSE ones,😡 - it is great that collecting your own fuel warms you so many times over, and of course, best to burn fallen trees because then you don't have to harm any that are living. Enjoy your fire too, makes me happy to think of you sitting there being warm and cosy xx

They tried installing those off shore windmills where I live in New Jersey USA, and we had so many washed-up dolphins and whales. Many of us prayed against it. The company that was installing them ended up canceling the project. I pray against it for your area. For autumn preparations, we do a lot of garden bed tidying and indoor cleaning.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

That is so sad to hear. Another commenter mentioned same thing in Maine - it's horrific!! Thanks for your prayers. Prayers are going to be the game changer xx

[@karlsteingall6832]

Good for you burning turf!! Keep it up,would love to sees video of you making a fire with it! We don’t have it here in Pennsylvania and it would be very interesting to see the process. I agree with your sentiment on the windmills, a blight on the landscape!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

That video is on the cards. People power is stopping the windmills xx

[@lorihartzell7439]

I too prep for winter! I’ve been cleaning the house and putting everything away from summer. I’m actually even getting the greenhouse ready so I can move things into it late winter. All my potted plants are settled inside the house until spring. I keep apologizing to them for having to bring them in. I love knowing we are all on the same page in many ways!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Yeah me too - and so many others when I read the comments. We are all in love with our Earth and want to bring her home xx

[@Auntie7024]

Hello Terri, good Sunday morning to you. You are very busy getting ready for winter to come. I enjoyed seeing around your autumn garden. You've inspired me to get some more chores done today. Have a wonderful week. Thank you for today's video. Blessings to you. ❤

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

You are so welcome Auntie, thanks so much for watching and blessings to you too xx

Thermals, bed socks and maybe my motorcycle balaclava in bed just like in times gone by. It's usually warmer outside than inside my house in winter or that's how it can seem. I'd love a turf fire but I have to make do with my Himalayan Salt lamps, one of which is even in a little basket and actually looks like it's burning coals! Even use one as a bedside light. I got given an electric blanket but have never tried it as I am usually warm enough in bed. My mother wanted to buy me one when young and the ice used to form inside on my bedroom window but I didn't like the idea of it though obviously they are popular so must be something good about them? Maybe I will try it this year? I bet that you have one of those bed pan warmers with a big lump of turf burning in it. Absolute bliss. A lot of maybe richer houses did used to have fireplaces in the bedrooms I think? That must have been cosy.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I remember the ice on the windows - so magical! Made us tough😂 My mother made us wear old cardigans over our pjs. We had an old house with some working fireplaces - fantastic when you were in bed with a cough or heavy cold and a little night light paraffin lamp burning. Made up for being ill. Unfortunately, today I have no fireplace in the bedroom and have to make do with a rubber hot water bottle. Your lamps sound cosy xx

[@salardis8804]

Turf and logs warm us multiple times. When we harvest them, gather them, transport them, store them and finally burn them. All very welcome punctuations in the rhythm of the seasons.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

So true! And then you can relax and unwind in front of a warm fire after all the hard work xx

[@rachelashley22]

Hello 😊 When the leaves start to fall I always know that Autumn 🍂 is just around the corner, even the air seems different, I have already put some throws and warm cushions on the sofa as it's been raining so much and the rain doesn't seem to stop, it's gone very cold and damp as well so I also put lanterns round the house and candles🕯so it's already starting to feel cosy, The Connamara ponies are gorgeous, it must be lovely to see them everyday, l would love to live in the countryside, I hope you have a lovely week and that the weather stays good 😊

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thank you - I hope you have a lovely week too. Your home sounds so cosy and welcoming xx

[@monicacanney]

I couldn’t agree more with what you say about the bogs and turf and yes our beautiful landscape is and will be destroyed by the climate change houx, the climate is changing and always will it’s the natural cycles of Mother Earth. But the opportunists have ther agenda. Blessings to you always and for living your life in alignment and attuned with Mother Earth 💞🙏🧚

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

The opportunists are not winning! People are becoming aware of what is happening, we just need to pull together and then all is well xx

[@cynthiatalbert3037]

Hi Terri, everything looks lovely! I think it's very interesting, burning the turf. It's worked for centuries so it's a good thing! We use our wood stove for heat, and we will be cutting dead trees or trees blown down from storms. We are lucky to have hard wood trees in our area. I'm collecting seeds and golden rod for tea and made a hair rinse with it. I'm getting things tidy around here as well. Have a great week! Cynthia 🌿🌙💚

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Golden Rod for a hair rinse sounds interesting - for strength and growth or for colour? We are all busy getting tidy. Hope your week is great too xx

[@shervin6711]

I always look forward to your " visits" I had no idea crab apples were useful! Here in the states they are considered a decorative tree, but not edible. Thank you for sharing your beautiful countryside and traditions with us. So interesting!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

They are pretty sour but can be used with other fruits and as a jelly xx

[@wendyfinney6862]

Theres nothing to beat a fire in the grate it says home to me cozy times with my nanna happy belated birthday thank u so much for your vidios interesting informative and full of welcome bless you from anglesey ❤xxx

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Hey Wendy -on the sacred isle of Anglesey - we are intending to visit there sometime with a friend. Fire in the grate will make anything seem ok xx

[@bnhietala]

We used to heat with oil, but it got so expensive. Several years ago my family put in a pellet stove in the once barely used fireplace, and now we only use the oil for the hot water heater. So we've saved a bit of money, and we have a nice cozy fire in the stove all winter. I've always heard of folks burning peat to heat their homes, but I live in southern New England, so I've never been able to experience it. I also understand the unwanted industrialization. We're not dealing with the windmills, but the town I live in paved over a large field to build a shipping warehouse that no one wanted (except those who were gonna benefit from it). Before they plowed it under it had been largely untouched, so it was covered with wild grasses and flowers, and you could see deer grazing with their fawns on your drive to work in the morning. It was so pretty.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

That is so sad! They must have hard hearts. They are building digital data centres here that are going to drain our rivers to keep cool and that is why they want all these windmill farms everywhere - nothing to do with so called climate change. Where are you in the south? I was in Glastonbury a few years ago and in the museum they explained that they used to cut turf there but they stacked it in a different way to us. Was interesting xx

[@Stoiccappy]

I love you and your videos so much! A bright spot on a dreary day.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I'm so glad! Thank you xx

[@heatherk444]

I'm with you. I love a good fall cleaning! It feels good to have everything in order for the long, cold months ahead that will be spent mostly indoors.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Exactly! Then we can settle in😃 xx

[@Ladythyme]

We don’t have turf but heat my home with wood and yes I have been preparing the same and going through the same process of obtaining, storing and consistently moving it to the shed and as it will, will be carting it to the house for burning…in the winter it is the heart of our home….if and when it is not burning, there seems to be something missing …temperatures here are still too warm for the need to burn. I’m anxiously awaiting the first fire as I do every year 😊 Have a great week!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Hope you have a great week too! You are right - the fire is the heart of the home and brings us together xx

[@lulucly]

What a busy day! So enjoyed the visit. Happy Birthday - Hope this is the best year yet!!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thanks so much! So far it is!😂 xx

[@jimmyxtc69]

There is no climate crisis. The Earth needs more CO2.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Yes, more CO2 for more trees and plants xx

[@cfttify]

Great saying Terri " it all comes out of the earth be it electricity oil or turf " 💚

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

It does and some people because it is operated by a switch in the home, that it is clean - they don't think about the site of industrial, mechanical extractions. xx

[@patriciavincent5076]

We have all our wood in, storm windows on. Good feeling!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Good for you - great feeling! xx

[@gailsears2913]

It always feels good to get things on your list done!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Yes it does! A real sense of fulfilment xx
