These sticky little buggers can almost always find me, so I have never searched them out. Now that I know about cleaver coffee, I probably won't be able to find them 😂

[@kleinebre]

I did not know that. Just ran out into the garden, roasted up some seeds in the popcorn popper and brewed it up as an undersized shot of espresso. This is the sort of knowledge I'm on the web for. Liked and subscribed.

[@skyecheney7684]

Did it turn out okay in the popcorn machine? It’d save a heap of time and electric if so

[@Tw4tz0r]

how did it turn out, what was the taste like?

[@JosephHackett-wz1fl]

Love this .....thank you so much Home is where the heart is✨❤️✨

[@winonamika4891]

In the Southern US, we use dandelion root & chicory root, roasted, for our coffee... My gran always had a patch of chicory. If we had too much, the chickens & goats love to eat it, too. I had some cleavers growing in my yard that were always grabbing at my ankles... Got rid of it, not knowing what it was, dang it. Now I'm going to order seed for it & put it in a big container in an out-of-the way space. Thank you.

[@lovingit1538]

Healthier coffee. Great video.ty

[@steveipswich]

Wow never thought you could make something like coffee from this wild plant thanks for sharing

[@lorrainehoulden1141]

My cocker spaniel has a job this autumn - collecting those seeds 😁

[@brokendolly6967]

OMGSH you got me at caffeinated coffee 😮 ! I subscribed immediately,lol.

[@Trailtotable]

Big patch across the street from me, I made pesto, now for coffee ☕️

[@PlanetC64]

If we didn’t have this “noxious weed” I never would have found your wonderful channel. Thanks Cleavers!

[@mariadeangelesmanzo4661]

I Like Your Program Very Much. I Watch You From Juarez Mexico 🇲🇽 ❤❤

[@Jewelmind]

I love that, take your time and enjoy the sun

[@lizzyjeanne]

Oh wow. I’m in Brooklyn, NY and I just realized these are the annoying weeds I pull out of my yard constantly through the spring. I can’t leave them growing in the yard or I’d get a ticket from the city, but perhaps if I get them small, I can put them in a pot and keep then around until they seed.

[@karrskarr]

Cleavers may not be everyones cup of 'tea'se, but darn good cuppa coffee! Excellent production, and narratives! Respect!

[@joannabeatty4331]

I've just finished my first cup of cleaver coffee picked from my garden then roasted !! Wasnt sure what to expect but I I loved it! Thank you so much for making this video.❤🙏

[@andywilson8698]

Did it give you the energy that coffee does ,or was the caffeine content to low to notice?

[@thomaskelly123]

much more than just cleaver wisdom here, all good

[@adampeters7947]

Actually, Cleaver tea also cleans the lymphatic system

[@sheilaloya8900]

Ooh good to know! Thank you!

[@jenniferguy8078]

Just discovered you two lovely people, and working my way through your videos..I've read books and web resources over the years but as a very 'visual learner' your videos are perfect, short, simple, step by step methods and new recipe ideas, thank you! 😊 💕

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

Thank you for watching 😁

[@TruthFrequencyNews]

I adore this couple and their videos! Amazing information!

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

[@sillysop]

I like to do the slow gathering method in general…. It’s like a meditation for me, I get so peaceful and happy :) I’m amazed how much their is to know about our nature , cleaver coffee! who knew 🎉 *sips dandelion coffee* Great channel to learn sooo much. Thanks

[@OutNaboutwithSwiift]

Wicked video going to give this a try! I expected you to be a Texan dude with the cool hair and beard but was surprised to hear you’re a fellow Brit! Love from Essex👌🏻

[@shirleywilson5959]

So proud I managed to clear a huge amount of cleavers to green waste, just before they spread their seeds, now I could kick myself! I need a list of what to keep for next year 🥴

[@dandesrochers363]

Yes a list always adding new plants to it .

[@jenniferzapata5698]

I use a plant identifier ap and find uses for the many weeds in my yard.

[@lorrainehoulden1141]

Me too!

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

😊 thank you

[@glendabarton1914]

Have lots of sticky willy here in Luther Burbank s town Santa Rosa in Sonoma County California. I make sticky willy pesto in the spring. Will have to try the coffee. We have lots of miners lettuce.Alice Waters used to make salads which is what I do. Chockful of nutrients, the only wild edible plant exported to England and Europe from the US but it mostly grows in California. Miners used to eat it for Vitamin C and tribes used it seasoned with the peppery trails of ants.If you live in California or possibly parts of Oregon there is the California Bay Tree (umbellularia California) from which I get bay leaves (trimmed down; they're strongly mentholated). It's a beautiful tree can grow very old and tall. Beautiful wood for carving.. In the fall the berries Pomo tribes called peppernuts cluster on trees, fall in storms. Considered a delicacy when roasted and ground they're supposedly slightly stimulating, though I didn't experience that so much.

[@littlestlove]

You guys are so inspiring to be real versions of ourselves

[@TSis76]

Thank you so much!!

[@EccentricNature]

Funky. I haven't heard of doing coffee from cleavers before. Makes sense as its in the same family. Just much less popular than doing dandelion or chicory.

[@paulaclark7989]

Thank you so much, I had no idea!

[@rosferguson3979]

Ooooh...YUM!!!

[@mirandaandrea8215]

What a wonderful attitude and approach u have to life! 🌀🙏🌀🙏

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

Thank you 💚

[@intuitivegal2731]

Awesome, thank you for sharing your knowledge

[@OldMysticFantasist]

I gathered a bunch of those seeds last year intending to try this, but never got around to it. Maybe your video will be the inspiration I need to dig them out of storage & roast them up. LOL

[@julieledesma2010]

Thanks for all your knowledge 😍

[@Minnehaha64]

Seems like you could keep them cool, dark & dry over winter to use if you run out of coffee, then plant them in the spring for more! Cleavers is also good for the skin. I made a jar of cleavers-infused oil for salve. It's a component of my antibiotic ointment.

[@kamrankhanafridi7080]

Great work....

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@imnerchildhealing]

Thank you so much. I'm gonna go and collect this tomorrow

[@kyerstenkerr5074]

WHHHAAATTT???!! 🤯 well, along with chicory root harvesting this summer, I know what else I'm going to try! Amazing!

[@1HorseOpenSlay]

I have been using cleavers for years,and I never knew!!!coffee?!?!

[@DiAllinson]

How else do you use them please?

[@1HorseOpenSlay]

@@DiAllinson I gather them in the spring,dry them,and use them mostly to make tea.I notice if I drink a cup in the morning I feel much much better,and they are very mild,so they are easy on the system.They seem to get the toxins in our systems moving out and they are good for the lymphatic system.They really are one of my favorite herbs.They also are calming to the system,so for allergies and and over stimulated nervous system they are very helpful.

[@skyecheney7684]

I’ve only used the leaves for tea. What a great plant 😍

[@victoriadoughty1850]

Omg.... Yes please!!!!

[@vincenzaperriano876]

Can't wait to find some Cleaver here in WI, USA and try it!

I've made coffee from Triosteum perfoliatum (Late Horse Gentian). It was a good coffee substitute. I will definitely give this a try.

@@homeiswhereourheartis LOL! well I am still awake and it's past 4am. Years as a midwife on night shift are hard to shake off! I just had one made of dried pineapple weed, tilia, Hawthorne and mint...hopefully sleep will follow soon. I picked a bowlful of the cleaver's seeds and will be roasting them tomorrow! Thanks so much again.

[@leonardocharlesworth159]

Amazing!! Can’t wait to try it, How long will the cleaver coffe last once baked?

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

Over a year 🙂

[@sylviasolder7389]

I learned new things all the time with you. Personally I hate those plants. They crawl and seems to suffocate all the plants that comes into contact with it.

Why did I not already know this.

Where did you buy the reusable tea bags? I love to have tyem. Ty 🙏

[@ColinSimpson-go4dv]

Would silver foil be ok to bake them on?

[@Nanamowa]

I wonder if these seeds benefit from fermenting like coffee beans do. I'd love to see how much caffeine is in it 1:1 per amount of dried coffee beans.

[@janiebarker2687]

Awesome ❤️

[@deborahmw777]

I think we have the sticky weeds but ours dont have red lines on the stems and dont see any seeds, balls or flowers on them. They are pretty tall.

[@christinaward161]

Thankyou both , yet again, another awesome video. Id love to know where you get all your knowledge of natural produce? May i ask, can the cleavers be stored easily? do they need roasting before storage? and how long will they store etc Thankyou lots xx

[@llbailey9946]

how much caffeine does it have? is the flavor stronger than the tea color it looks like?

[@stephanygates6491]

I’m surprised to see cleavers coffee. I know cleavers as a potent diuretic, outperforming the drug Lasix, in my experience. I will certainly try it as a coffee alternative.

[@karindinarda8755]

I just discovered cleavers! Can you pick them green and let them dry out to use as coffee?

[@marmaladepie2722]

PLEASE SEE TO IT THAT THE TEA BAG & ITS STRING ARE COTTON MATERIAL. THANKS FOR THE NICE VIDEO.

[@collettekelly7931]

I was weeding my garden a few weeks ago and was getting rid of these plants ( we call them sticky backs,) but they hit off my leg and left red marks on them for days.

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

Oh no! Collette maybe you had a reaction to the sticky weed? Hope your leg is ok ✌❤

[@lizzyjeanne]

You may have contact dermatitis from this plant. Do not eat it. You are allergic and it could cause internal allergy symptoms.

[@angelapeach4898]

I picked quite a lot to make in bulk (is very abundant here), but ended up with lots of little bits of stalk that are almost impossible to get out (yes, I was a bit impatient - regretting it now!!) Should I go the whole hog and spend an hour or 2 just picking out the stalks, or will they not make much difference to the flavour...? 🤔

[@CFonkster]

I’m wondering if the roasted cleavers still has the same medicinal effect as fresh cleavers tea or a tincture.
