This chanell?! Is the therapy for the soul! The amount of beneficial information, on tinctures, honey, recipes....and done in such a sweet friendly manner...ahhhh, sooo glad I have discovered it like a year ago, fell in love with it and got brave and made some tinctures and salves of my own! Gold dust worth❤

[@vj563]

I just harvested some yesterday and I'm letting it dry. Perfect timing on the video. I was going to make a tincture, but maybe God is telling me to make one with honey as well?

[@biscuit7910]

I almost cried when you said you were done. So looking forward to your book. I hope you included recipes with amounts on how to make creams, salves, etc... Also, I hope dosages are listed. I can't wait. Could we see a couple of pages from the book before buying the book to make sure it has the information we want? Thank you for creating & writing this book. ❤ your channel. ❤2u & 2 all

[@crystalforseeodeneal1666]

[@dancnluc1]

Congratulations on your book! I can't wait to get it. I can add it to my other book collection I bought from Roots and Refuge, Whispering Willow, Stacy of Doug and Stacy, and Mary Nest. Goldenrod has taken over several areas around me. I plan to pick some this weekend. I definitely want to try it with honey. I may even infuse it with volka as well.

[@kingdomhealthwellness]

Can’t wait to buy your book, Kaylee!!!

[@OakwildeDesigns]

I’m so excited for your book!! ❤

[@jackieh2434]

Congrats on your manuscript! I just finished an ebook I was working on as a final project for my herb class. It's only 50 pgs and I know how long it took me 😅 If you mentioned this in the video I missed it but for anyone new to infused honeys, there's a higher risk of botulism if your herbs are not completely dried before infusing. Also there are some people that actually are allergic to Goldenrod (I was as a kid but got allergy testing done recently and that allergy is gone 🥳). If you're not sure try a skin test first or start with a very very small amount and see how you feel. Going foraging this week, can't wait to find some Goldenrod!

[@HomemakingwithRebekah]

I've got to try this! I recently saw goldenrod blooming here!

[@tristinchristenson6349]

What a fantastic functional food!

[@SleepyHead76]

I’m so excited! I know it probably won’t be as good as fresh goldenrod but I still have some that I dried so I just used that. The field I usually pick was sprayed this year and there isn’t a single stalk. I was so sad.

[@TheHoneystead]

Oh I'm sorry

[@caren4671]

Happy to see you again

[@JeanneMaCh]

I found a couple spots where goldenrod is growing in wild. I’m going to dig some up so I can grow it in my garden.

[@TheHoneystead]

Thanks for sharing this wonderful information

[@jow-ml5wr]

I have terrible allergies. Drs basically have tried everything until they say I just have to “live with it”. Uggg. I just found your channel and I am very anxious to learn more. I am very new learning about herbs. I can’t smell at all so it is difficult to learn about herbs and to but I am enjoying learning and hope I can learn to help my own health as well as for others.

[@dottief6057]

Congratulations on your book. You have been a busy lady and I've missed you. This video is so timely for me. My son is a recovering addict and I have been waiting for my goldenrod to bloom and wondering if an oxymel would work for goldenrod. He needs it mostly for pain and inflammation from an old injury and cannot take the narcotics he used to use. I'm praying this will give him some relief. He also has seasonal allergies so two birds with one stone. Thank you for sharing your wealth of information. 😊

[@TheHoneystead]

I want you to read about milky stage oats, specifically for recovery from narcotics! It's amazing for calming and nourishing a nervous system!!

Lol done never 🤣 but anyways thank you for putting this video out about goldenrod I wish it would have came out a little earlier but that's okay I will use this as a resource😊 we are all just getting over sinus colds and being infused in honey yummy that even sounds better!! I am super excited about your book coming out too!! Congratulations 🎉 you did it Kaylee 🤗💗 if you succeed you can achieve!!

[@kittyhans1]

Visual Artist -I dye with goldenrod I use alum (a special tin from chem lab) for a mordant the brightest yellow ever . I have the results buried in my instagram feed somewhere, once the mordant is washed out which is very little like a tablespoon to 5 gallons of water, the goldenrod dyed with tencel, linen, cotton will be nourishing to your skin

[@cherylb.9766]

@@TheHoneysteadshould I warm it before I strain it after 8 weeks? If you use mostly flowers do you need to strain it?

[@photogurl2004]

Excited to try this infusion! If you do a vodka tincture & a honey tincture; once they're strained how much of each would you mix? Like 2 parts vodka to 1 part honey? Love your channel!

I wish I would have seen this yesterday! I just ordered some Mullein leaf drops to start to see if that would help with my asthma. I'm using my inhaler way too much. I was going to reach out to you when I had a minute to ask about something for Astham, but then something popped up on my feed. But I'll be headed over to the website because I'd like to find something with oregano as a mouth swish and thought you might be able to whip something up ...

I love your goldenrod and honey so much that I just made mine. But how do you strain it?

[@georgiagirlinmaine8591]

I'm off to do this! Thank you. I'm sorry, I have missed this part..... is it shelf stable after straining or should I store in refrigerator?

[@teresadunlap2377]

Love your video Have a? Do you place a piece of wax paper between tinture and lid to keep the lid from rusting . Also your thoughts on purchasing dried herbs to tinture...do to health issues I'm unable to get outside to grow or forage 😢 ..thanks

[@christywylie6528]

What are the benefits to using fresh vs dried goldenrod? Fresh ferments & any fresh infusion I do eventually molds. Does it pull more of the medicinal properties? Just wondering. Love you & your channel, have learned soooo much!!

[@cherylcrenshaw2741]

I love goldenrod! How do you strain the honey?

[@diedresfloridagarden]

So I was told by a bee keeper here in FL that the honey made from having a lot of golden rod around actually smells different and not in a pleasant way lol. Do you find this? Maybe if there's a variety of things blooming it doesn't matter?? So intriguing. I JUST talked about goldenrod infused honey yesterday and then this popped up today ❤. I'll be doing that this afternoon:)

[@TheHoneystead]

Lol that is true! When the girls are bringing in goldenrod... it smells like a stinky potato chips or feet! 🤣

[@anthonydugo2989]

Congrats on the book! Maybe pour some honey into the jar first before putting in the Goldenrod.

[@luanaalicea-krigin6607]

Definitely going to try this! Do you know if goldenrod is safe for dogs? My pups have bad allergies and was wondering if it might help them too 🤔

[@orange2sweet673]

I just made this yesterday! But the goldenrod floats to the top. Does this matter? Congratulations on your book. I can’t wait to get it. ❤

[@TheHoneystead]

It will sink, just make sure to turn it!

[@rosemaryshevchuck5767]

Did you use fresh or dry Golden Rod in your honey? Do you cap it or use cheesecloth for the moisture if it was fresh. Love your channel.

[@NAM-fq5oi]

Hi! Is "Tall goldenrod" (Solidago altissima) the same thing as goldenrod? My phone plant app says what I have is "tall" goldenrod but I'm scared to use it....Also, question about the honey....if you sweetened your hot cup of herbal tea with it, will the hot water from the tea kill off the goodness of the medicinal part of the honey?

[@nikkireigns]

I’m curious as well

[@TheHoneystead]

Yes! There are many types of medical goldenrod! I do let my tea cool before adding the honey to roughly 110-90 degrees Fahrenheit.

[@Leslie-q3g]

So I just did this for the first time!!! How can I know if I mess up??? 😁

[@philipkowalski]

Would be ok to harvest the goldenrod -dry it &save for a later date to be infused in my honey?

Absolutely!

@TheHoneystead nice! I kind of figured it was something like that as the video went on and I listened. 😆 I need to listen first..but I'm getting to the age of needing to throw out questions when they pop in my head. I just gathered goldenrod last night for a honey infusion and just finished topping off my jar of goldenrod with 🍯 🧡 now I'm going to dry the rest for tea this winter!
