I hadn’t realized I took this picture yesterday on my medicine walk. I love it! 😍 I had started using a new plant app. David Bowie and I were on the hunt for spruce gum. I found white cedar on the walk instead, so not a total loss. That is until a stop to our local dollar store on the way home and I discovered the very spruce tree I needed. All tucked away, off to the back of the parking lot. I grabbed some of the spruce gum off with my bare hands and let’s just say it was interesting getting back in my car. The stuff is so sticky. I was so happy! 🌲 ✨ So, early this morning I went back out with my butter knife and doggy bag to collect my spruce gum medicine. I am so happy! Thank you Creator for the trees and plant medicine. Thank you Joe from .garden for teaching me about spruce gum salve making on Aamjiwnaang. I accidentally spilt most of the bottle, i had made a few weeks back. From the tiny bit i managed to save I use it daily💫✨It was urgent I get more. This stuff is amazing for infections, wounds, sunburns, scars and stretch marks with continued use. Happy Friday! Have a great weekend! 🎄
