I'M BACK. AND STILL HUMAN.

Phew!! What a stressful few days that was! All my accounts, both business and personal had been disabled. No warning. Nada.

When I use my Facebook and Instagram for business, you can understand how stressful this was.

Thanks to the legends that hunted me down and found me!

I will be getting a separate phone number for business enquiries.

Back to herbs, banter & business as usual.

Can confirm I am in fact human, and over 16 years of age 🤦‍♀️

Currently set up at Longford Market from 4:30 until 8pm.

🌿 Have you got any w**ds in your garden that you'd like to know about? Are they actually a w**d, or do they have incredible medicinal and edible uses?

Take a photo 📸 of the whole w**d and a photo of both the top and bottom of the leaves, share it on this post, and I'll share some information about it 😀

It's important you correctly identify any w**ds you are considering consuming. There are some toxic look-alikes out there!

It's amazing what we have growing in our own backyards! 🌿

Harvested some Twiggy Mullein (Verbascum virgatum) flowers to make a Mullein and Garlic infused Oil for ear aches and infections. This can also be used on dogs and cats with ear infections too.

I've used it on my step-daughter who woke up screaming at 2am one morning...4 drops in each ear and there was no mention of sore ears again!

Both Verbascum thapsus and V. virgatum can be used medicinally and have the same uses.

Some of these stalks were taller than me! Isn't she a beauty 😍

Did you know that some herbs can be safely used on your pets?

Calendula Salve to the rescue again!

From Sarah:

"For about a 12 month period my dog was constantly licking his arthritic elbows which caused callous's to grow. Dog kept licking callous's which then caused them to crack open and get infected. It was a revolving circle of vet visits consisting of synovan injections, neocort cream, noroclav tablets, salt water baths. Nothing was working and I was literally at my wits end! I put a pillow collar and calendula salve on my dog everyday for about 4 months and this was the result 😎 "

Let's take a step back into our childhood for a moment....

🌼 Dandelion Crowns 101: How to Make One That Actually Stays Together 🌼

YOU’LL NEED:

Dandelions (or daisies/clover): Pick ones with long, thick, flexible stems.

Patience: Give yourself about 5 minutes to get the hang of the movement.

THE “LOOP & LOCK” WEAVE

Using the vintage diagram as a reference, here’s the simple breakdown:

1. Build the Base
Hold your first flower stem horizontally – this is your base.

2. Position the Second Flower
Place the second flower vertically behind the head of the first flower.

3. Loop (The Key Move)
Take the second flower’s stem, bring it over the top of the base stem, then under and through to the back.

4. Lock It In Place
Pull the stem firmly so it ends up lying horizontally alongside the first stem. Now you’ve got a neat bundle of two stems.

5. Keep Adding Flowers
Place the next flower vertically behind the bundle, then wrap its stem over and under before pulling it tight so it sits flat with the others. Repeat until your chain is long enough.

6. Close the Crown
Wrap the chain around your head, bring the ends together, and secure them with a strip of grass, a bit of string, or one last flower stem.

EXTRA HINTS

Use Fresh Flowers:
Dandelions wilt quickly, so make your crown right after picking them for the prettiest result.

Sap Warning:
The milky sap from the stems can lightly stain fingers and clothes brown. Harmless—but maybe not ideal with fancy outfits. This can also be used on Warts!

Keep the Weave Tight:
Press your thumb over each new “knot” as you go to stop the chain from loosening.

Save this image so next time you’re out in the sunshine, you’ll remember exactly how to weave your crown.

Just finished unpacking my car from a workshop I did in Lakes Entrance for the Lakes Entrance Garden Club.

A huge thank you to all who listened to me go full TED talk about w**ds 🤣

I hope I've taught you all that w**ds are UN-BE-WEED-ABLE 🌿

It was a pleasure meeting you all ❤️
