I wish I could hit "like" a thousand times for this! I'm in Central New York and we didn't mow this spring to see what popped up. It's the end of June and I finally found Self Heal! I ran in from the garden and searched for this video. Timely because I literally have a sore throat with swollen glands and tender neck. Kismet! Love to you all for what you do. I can't wait to get your books ❣️

[@joycewedel9084]

I love how you do close ups & detail how to identify it and use it. Ty!

[@socialwork63]

You are literally moving in line with the windy goodness around you , so cool. You have so much knowledge on these wild herbs 🌿..It's a thrill to watch and so inspiring to be at one with nature. Thank you 😊

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

It's a great joy to read comments like this!

[@coolroy4300]

I'm glad I read your comment about the wind , but I still thought maybe someone had just cranked up a Harley.

[@grounded7362]

I just had a coworker send me a picture of self-heal and linden flowers asking what they were. I immediately jumped on the motorcycle and headed to his place and harvested a bunch of both. Tonight is the first time ever having self-heal tea and interestingly to me it tastes and smells similar to a very mild aroma of canned cooked spinach. I been waiting a long time to find some and was considering buying seeds this year. I dug a bunch up at my coworkers and planted it at my place, hoping it will take off and thrive.

[@GodLovesYou5635]

self heal seems good but I've read about Linden be careftwith linden flax read about that more when i read about it was scared of it for ingesting

[@janicecentrello1555]

Please do more like this, very informative for a newbie like myself.

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

We've lots like this on our channel & so 1 or 2 videos every week 🙂

[@1HorseOpenSlay]

I love how you took a moment to list the benefits,and the detailed imiges,with close ups will really help people in identification.I found this in the Columbia basin in wa.state,USA.it is amazing that it even grows in desert climates,along the waters edge.

I hope your colds get better soon!

You two are wonderful! Very new to wildcraft & each vid you do seems to be something I am, currently or close to, working on. I discovered self heal on our property 2ish weeks ago and have already dried some for tea. I love the balm especially for harsh winters here in Pennsylvania w/the chapped and painful lips ABSOLUTELY LOVE Your presentation and of course, the wealth of knowledge and obvious love of the herbs. Thank You For All That You Do!

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

🙂

[@Tea_and_thyme_2012]

Oh my word I wish I’d seen this video a few days ago. I have just literally emptied my garden of this herb not knowing what it was. I’ve recently got an allotment and have neglected my own back garden and this has sprung up everywhere. I thought it was a weed so I pulled it all out! I just hope now that I didn’t manage to get the roots and it will come back. I’m really interested in making the salve as I’ve had a problem with the palm of my hand (just the left for some reason) and it splits open and is very painful, I’ve tried so many over the counter products for this and nothing ever helps so I’m definitely going to try this one. I’ll be in the garden now looking for the plant with interest. Thank you for this video.

[@robh7872]

Fantastic wish I had found your channel sooner 😊

[@LadyChanterz]

Love your videos so much! I've just made the self heal balm! I think I've got a jar collecting habit too since foraging 😆🌿🌺

[@homeiswhereourheartis]

We love a jar we've become like lord of the rings gloems for jars 😁

[@rosemarymatczak7476]

I'm quite partial to a nice jar myself 😍

[@Hayley-sl9lm]

I originally sowed this (the subspecies native to the Western US, var lanceolata) for bumble bees, in a wildflower seed mix and it's one of the only things that's coming up. Good to know that I can use some of it for other purposes as well, thanks for the video! I have a plant that I started inside, and I ate one of the leaves and was surprised at how mild it was, like milder than spinach almost. I don't think I would use it as a base for a salad but I could definitely see myself eating it fresh mixed with lettuce or like spring mix & carrots as like a dressing or garnish (kind of like you would use parsley). Weirdly the slugs in my yard, which have eaten whole plants with a stronger taste than this do not eat it, maybe it tastes stronger to them.
