Garden Sabbath Day 56 | Our First Huge Harvest

Come with me today on our first harvest of perennial crops and forage with me for leaves for tea blends. There can be so many native plants just naturally growing, that can have great benefits. We'll identify those we know today, and harvest them together ♥

I so enjoyed all the sounds of nature during your harvest time.

Creeping Charlie is edible raw or cooked and can be used in teas, it's high in Vitamin C! Thank you for showing us how you harvest & use your herbs (and weeds 🤣) You're my favorite YouTuber!!

[jackienoel]

thank you Rachel, this was nice, I love all the sounds of nature around you.

[indecisivegardener]

Such a beautiful peaceful moment shared with us. Thank you 😊

[conniemcgehee]

watching you walk around your property and listening to the birds and roosters is like therapy. so relaxing to see the beauty and hear the sounds. very fun for this city girl. i have a list now of what herbs to add to my garden

[alystodola]

Oh I would love to see a lemon balm jelly canning project!

[bevturner]

Dandelions are a good thing. They're herbs also. We all grew up thinking they're weeds.

So many things to gather for tea on a cool pre-summer morning! Love the sounds in the background, so peaceful.

Oh I so wish I could plant in the ground. I need to garden out of pots and movable containers. It's still a little early here in MN but I don't think any of my herbs or strawberries came back. I had my pots and greenstalk in an unheated shed covered with straw over winter but it must still be too cold here. Last year I propagated so many strawberries I thought I'd get a lot this year, darn. Not even my mints survived this year🤦‍♀️. Your stuff is looking good.

[conniecrites]

I don't have raspberries growing on my property but funny things is my raspberry tea I ordered came today.

If that is your yarrows second year be prepared it will get HUGE! Mine got 3x3 its second year, love it!

[lynnetteb]

Your videos are so calming and what a great harvest!

[sharonhansen]

Your videos are such an inspiration to me. Love that your herbs are perennial. I start from scratch each year. Hoping to change that this year.

I think last year I watched this video later and felt like it was too late to harvest some of that stuff. I spent a good minute searching through some of your older videos so I could harvest timely. I’m feeling a bit more hopeful this year 🌱

[tracycouture]

Thank you, you inspire me to love my plants a little more 🥰🙏

[tammy]

Congrats on 200, 000 subs! you both rock!! I live in Michigan and you are my garden guru!! LOL Thanks so much!

[virginiaquintal]

I think freeze drying the herbs amplifies their flavor. I love it.

[dksu]

The violets were beautiful as was the whole video!
