Where you get/buy the violet herb? Will it work if not use voilet? Only use mullein and thyme.

[@theacadiangarden]

You can use just mullein and thyme! Substitutions for violet could be: mint, marshmallow leaf or root and white horehound. Mountain Rose Herbs is a great place to buy ethically sourced organic herbs.

What's your thought on homebound?

[@theacadiangarden]

I’m unfamiliar, what is homebound?

@@theacadiangarden typo! Was supposed to be horehound but spell check doesn't like that word 😂

[@theacadiangarden]

@hippiechickoffgridmaine8625 lol! Horehound is actually the primary ingredient in my last cough syrup. This time I replaced it with violet leaf, for two reasons, 1. My horehound barely survived the winter and I’m nursing it back to life right now, and 2. I found it is a very strong, bitter herb when decocted. That said, it is also very effective, even standalone. We love horehound 💚

@@theacadiangarden I've struggled to grow it here and just plain gave up a few years ago. The Amish up north here grow it and make the best hard candy with it! Love the horehound flavor!

@@hippiechickoffgridmaine8625 I still gotta try that candied burdock, but I’m adding horehound to my list now! Thanks 😊
