Gone are the days when our mothers, grandmothers, and aunties would be the ones to pass down all of this useful, healing knowledge that modern medicine has replaced. As a result, I've been wanting to learn all that I can, so I might teach my children and empower them to begin passing these vital, herbal remedies onto their children, and so on. While this practice has been stalled now for many generations, we can bring it back through the generous contributions of the people who still know how. Thank you so much! Since finding your channel I have learned so much!

There is! I imagined myself skipping through the meadows with my kids and their foraging baskets. Unfortunately they aren't interested, even though they're curious unschoolers. It's "mom's thing". So I keep notebooks and secretly hope they'll want them someday. They come asking for remedies when they need them, so that's enough for me. Just putting that out there for other parents that might have it this way also!😂

Proof that our machines are listening to us? I was asking the missus a couple of days ago (on the phone) to keep an eye out for plantago major while she was out an about in the countryside. We have ample narrow leaf close by, but there are some moist shady patches where having broad leaf plantain growing alongside of our viola sororia would be nice. This was the first medicinal herb that I ever became acquainted with, when at the age of seven or so, I nearly lost a couple of fingers. We were deep in the woods, constructing a meeting hall for outdoorsmen - just a pole barn with a sheet metal roof, really - when one of the scrap pieces slid off of the roof, and chopped into my hand. One of the gentlemen in attendance quickly produced yarrow, horsemint (monarda punctata grows wild in the Ozarks), and plantago. He stopped the bleeding, cleaned the wound, and had it patched up in no time .. and by the time we managed to get to a 'doctor', the wound had already knitted. I guess yarrow was the first herb, technically .. but it was the plantain that accelerated the healing to near miraculous levels.

I’m a bee keeper and I find it’s the best thing for bee sting

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Plantain is beautifully versatile, so helpful. Excellent for drawing out the poison of stings.

[@bellslinki]

I read a comment regarding someone who poured nettle tea on a hornet sting on their palm. It took away the pain almost instantly!

[@vapoureyes]

I keep bees also so what way do you apply plantain.

[@caperica]

@@vapoureyes it works so fast, wonderful. I take a leaf, chew it up and put that on the sting right away. Just put something on it to hold it there. I got a hornet sting and ran to the plantain, and immediately put it on there. Within minutes the pain is gone. We use it for tick bites to stop the itching. I also make a salve with it.

It’s nice to hear someone talking about plantain. I first heard about this plant many years ago and what we have here in Canada is something called broadleaf plantain. Looks completely different from the one you have, but does the same thing. It grows in all kinds of areas and is easily overlooked as a weed.

[@wallyfayewells]

As soon as I saw this video I knew I recognized the plant you were working with because I have loads of plantain in my yard! It’s everywhere around my garden. Can’t wait to put some of your ideas into practice.

[@willowgrove631]

It was really interesting to hear you talk about plantain Terri - years ago, my lovely mare Nelly used to eat big patches of plantain - it was her favourite area of the paddock! Now I realise that she ate it when she had a dry cough from dusty hay, or when she had a digestive problem (she could be very 'windy' bless her!). Who knows, maybe the plantain even saved her from developing a colic! Animals are so clever at self-selecting what's good for them aren't they!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I must tell my brother as he keeps horses and he can make sure they get it. Thanks Willow Grove!

Hello Terry. I recently found your channel and love the Irish wisdom of the herbs and plants in your garden.I love Plantain, I make a wonderful salve with it with yarrow flowers.I also just caught the before and after video of your lovely garden. I follow Collette and her amazing garden and was thrilled to hear that you visited her and she advised you to just start, all that time ago. I live in Australia and recently came upon the Hawthorn at my daughters place, so we asked permission and harvested some flowers for a flower essence as there were no berries yet, though she assured me they are prolific and the birds disperse them along the waterways and her garden. So seeing it on the very first video I found of yours and its full of fairy magic and is beneficial for the heart and courage, really made me enthused to make the tincture next time I go back to visit her when the berries are out. Looking forward to more videos.

My first assignment studying Chinese herbs was to find and report on this lovely herb. Once you are aware, you can’t stop seeing them.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

So true! Then you start to take care of the land and become concerned about what could happen and then you become an advocate and your love affair is underway!😀

Ha! I just recently saw a big patch of plantain growing in a public park, and found myself wondering if it had any medicinal use. How did the KZbin algorithm know that!? Many thanks for your very helpful video.

@ Dave Cooper - sounds to me like your higher self guiding you to her channel.

Very nice relaxing, informative video. I am rich in plantain and this information will be useful.

Wow.. what a fantastic video. I am a gardener and l think the longer you spend in nature the more you become sensitive to plants and their healing properties. I obviously have to weed in the gardens I tend but I just feel that there are no weeds only herbs and each one is precious. I definitely learned watching this and your husband's experience is proof of the efficacy of plantain. I will definitely be using plantain in the future and it was kind of you to share this knowledge . Thank you

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

"Each one is precious" I believe that to be true and Plantain is especially beneficial. x

[@JM-jd7yp]

Thank you for your kind reply. I have just ordered your first book on weeds. I am looking forward to reading it and thank you for being a guardian of these plants. 😊😊😊
