You and folks like you make me wish I had followed my heart years ago, bought a small farm, and enjoyed the simple life I used to dream about. I'm about to click over the big 60 and it seems pretty late in the game to make that kind of change. Anyhow, you're charming and calming and thank you so much for sharing.
I love your videos. Thank you for not stressing us out and having an attitude of gratitude. Thank you for encouraging us not to live in fear!! This lifts my spirits!
Thank you! I do not want to hide and love your channel. I come here for peace and joy. lol p plus knowledge.
Thanks for sharing your viewpoint😊 We live way out, not from fear, but from a love for the woods , the hills and hollows. For us it’s a lifestyle of being ready for a bad snow or a the creek coming up. We raise the majority of our food, so we know where it comes from, how it is raised and handled. It’s a rich, wonderful life! Your thought on all this, is why we enjoy your channel so much! ❤
I just love your channel! You make me want to be a bee keeper and herbalist. But for now I can work on the herbalist part. Thank you so much for all you do to show people all parts of herbs and what to do with them. You're amazing and much appreciated! It helps so much that your channel is calm and nit in panic mode. Thanks again!
I had never heard of ramps until a few years ago when some northern friends suggested we go to the Ahesville farmers market to get some. I bought a bunch and loved them. I never knew you could take the bulbs from those and plant them. I will be going back up into the mountains next spring and buying some to plant in my woods! Who knew??? Ramps are not known to us in the southern flatlands
Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 1 Peter 5:7 KJV
I love your channel the way it is. It makes me feel relaxed and at the same time I learn/hear about some of my favorite things bees and nature (gardening, mushrooms, herbs everything else 😂). Thanks for sharing 🩷🙏.
Kaylee, as far as i understand your ramps are like our wild garlic here. Just want to let you know, that you can treat/ferment it as you would make Sauerkraut. Then you can wrap leaves around dried tomatoes and/or half dried dates and pickle that rolls in sweet-sour vinegar with spices. It is possible to can them with spices. With the right spices it smells/tastes like a whole roasted whatever. Also you can pickle/ferment the bulbs in autuumn (if the patch has grown enough). So you can do also with the buds and/or the stems, when the leaves are huge... Warm greetings from Vienna!
Plant some grape and kiwi vines below a mature tree... train the vines to climb. We are in middle of nowhere Saskatchewan Canada. The last 3 yrs have been hell. 3 deaths in less than 3 yrs can drain your soul. Expanded the garden, set up 8ft elkwire. Mostly to keep the goats out but also the whitetail. Planted apple trees, plum, cherry, apricot, gogi berry, saskatoon, raspberry, strawberry, elder berry. Comfry, rhubarb, egyptian walking onion, blue berry, grape vines. We changed our diet, 90% carnivore now. Get rid of the teflon cookware, buy a good set of castiron. Throw away the canola oil, corn oil, soy oil. Everything we cook with is either lard or tallow. In one yr time I lost 20lbs and my wife lost 30lbs....Also do a 48 hr fast once a month. We started a beehive but Im as a dumb AF. Burdock root and dandelion root tea is awesome....love the content. stay safe, stay pure. God bless you all.

@@user-cp2sx8gp2z Hi there, southern PA here, I don't think they grow well down south they are abundant when it's cooler in the spring once it gets warmer up here they are out of season.
Ramps (Allium tricoccum) are a perennial species of wild onion with a strong onion or garlic flavor. The ramp plant is wild growing in damp woodlands of eastern US and Canada.

Ooh will it ward off voles?
Hi. Will you be doing another T-shirt run? They are so cute and I missed it. Thanks! 😊
I pluck off the fully grown leaves and transplant just the bulb since Ive noticed the leaves die anyways after transplanting. I've separated and transplanted close to 100 ramps in the last week so in 5 years the forest will be looking much different. :)
you can eat violet tubers! they are just really hard to clean....but if your starving ;p
Great Video 😁🎉 🙏 I need to get one of those Shirts..
Very helpful information. I would love to learn more about herb infused honey.
I do pickled ramps every year. Love the crunch and taste.
Good to know, there are some more people eating and living like that.. 🙂
I've got that same tshirt on!! Love it!! Super soft!! 🌼🐝🌱
Kaylee I love how you do things with a your Apothecary and foraging very interesting to learn because the benefits with medicine and with your health is something that I'm very interested in 😊❤ tysm 🥰 much love from Michigan 💙
I LOVE that idea! We have quite a few huge clumps of ramps. I usually chop them and add them to my fried potatoes. And YES they are super strong! But the flavor mellows as it is cooked. The deer love them!
I enjoy the knowledge you share about gardening and herbal medicines
Thank you for not being “that” channel ❤❤❤
I don’t have ramps but I do have chive blossoms....maybe I’ll infuse some into honey ! I love experimenting haha....I already made chive blossom salt and oh my goodness it turned out pretty
Solomon seal is not an onion, but a unique tasting delicious tuber that is also slow growing. It prefers (but not limited to) rocky hillsides, along stone walls and very easy to harvest large quantities quickly. You dont even need to dig the entire plant out, just break off half of the long rhizome which can be eaten or transplanted to immediately double the solomons seal population. There is a giant variety that grows several feet high and so the rhizome is much larger. Its the most important and delicious carb source from the woods. Also, daylilly is very tasty but requires prep time but the carbs in daylilly tubers gives me an energy boost in return, just 1 plant can feed 1 person for supper so it doesnt take much. Solomons seal likewise also is loaded with carbs.
Enjoyung another or your knowledble videos, sadky as i semaid before i go outside and could see over (6) edible plants around my develoment. I cant used them due to contaminanted área. So many beautiful Dandelions. Sadly can't consumed them Good New us tgar my dayghter was the one that recomnended your videos for many years On her área we could used any edible plantas. She hace literalmente On her back yard. Reside in a beautiful place. Thank you for the love and care/ dedicatión to the bees and bring so much Information to your viewers. Yes we have to be xareful what we eat I am a vegetarian for many years due to health. I loved finding planes and lesrn how to used them in distes or in tea for healthy purposes. My okder daughter is one if them too.
Honeycomb ❤ honey 😊 sweet Thank you 😊😊!!
I thought I picked ramps & I picked death comma instead. I chopped them up & put them in my hushpuppies. Everyone got very sick that nite. Vomiting & diarrhea 😨. I looked it up the next day & found that the death comma looks just like the ramps…but it doesn’t have any smell to it. Which at the x I realized, but we had a lot of rain the past few days & I thought maybe the lack of smell was just deluted from all the rain. Anyway, make sure that the ramps u get have a strong onion smell because that’s the only way to tell them apart. 👍

You mean death camas?? I have known ramps aka Indian turnip all my life. Not sure what’s out there that is similar. Ramps are hard to not know. Thx
Hey Kaylee, thanks for sharing! What are the packets you put in your jars with your dried plants? And where is a good place to get them?
Great video ❤
💚
your channel is a blessing and you are so right, we do not need more fearmongering, because it only keeps us blind to the beauty around us... I would so love to get some tips in regards to herbs and hair, your hair is amazing and I would love to learn a bit about your haircare

@@TheHoneystead thank you for responding, this sounds so lovely, must give it a try
Just wow. I have no idea where in your journey you pivoted but glad you did. You are so beautiful, inside and out, and I could see the fear in you years ago. We live in such an amazing world with God all around us. God is not involved in what the latest billlionaire's political views are. I could not care whatsoever. Your channel is uplifting and it did during the Covid locksown. You are amazing and you made this Chicago guys day today.
Years ago, I foraged ramps. I made butter from it. I still have some powder I made as well. My neighbor has leeks, which he allowed us to get some.
They are in my top 3 of herbs. Every year when they are around, we eat them every day, whatsoever. And then I make a big batch of soup, that I freeze in portions to enjoy throughout the year. 🌱🌱
I’m don’t appear to be the only person who doesn’t know what a ramp and oxemel is. Never heard of this before. Do you have another video already explaining them? Thanks for the content.
A good ramp patch takes about 10 years be patient, eat well
If you watched the video about Cargill you will be afraid to GO to shop again in stores or eat outside at McD etc. So nature is the only place where we are safe.
I love the design of your shirt. Will you sell them again?
What is oxmel? Never heard that term before. Thanks for your content.
Thank you for sharing ✌️💞🤟

I am very curious as to why you use plastic bottles for the honey?

Oh yes!! Lol
How many plants of each kind of herb do I need to fill per quart jar for my new apothecary? Sorry this is more having to do with your class than this video. I decided the last two days to eat dandelion leaves. I've never done that before. Don't really know what I'm doing with it. Still learning. Thank you for the course. I did the one where there's only like three things to watch then it stopped, but it didn't feel like an ending. Is that really all of it or am I experiencing some kind of glitch? I'm like I'm starving for this type of information. I wondered, what about basil? Okay now that I've got all this off my mind, I'm gonna go back and watch this video because I also love every video you put out. Thank you for everything you do.
You should grow some Jerusalem artichoke
Can you use any variety of passion flower to use as tea or infusion?
Do you replant the bulbs after you cut the leaves and stem off?
I cant find anything on bergamot or motherwort. I have those 2 left to plant but can they go in a raised bed with other herbs or do I keep those separate? And I potted my valerian, should I have put those in the beds too?
i wonder what the best apothecary kit would be to cover all possible medical needs... blood, bone, nerve, stomach, poison...??? if i were to rely on apothecary medicine to keep me alive in deep reclusion.
Agree this platform is filled with chicken littles, the sky is falling, the sky is falling! I should read that childrens story again because its very entertaining and reminds me of people, everytime I see clickbait fearmongering. There is literally no end of the food you can get, harvest, find, propagate, divide, establish and in years time you will find the forest, the land will feed you. We all need access to the forest so we can help it, humans arent here just to live in cities and consume but we evolved with nature, that is what God wanted from the beginning. We are not to look at nature from behind a glass in a museum but be a full participate. The psychological benefits are tremendous. I received such healing from nature as a child but was so traumatized in school by children raised by TV, back in the 1970s my mom called it "the boob tube" and yeah thats life. Living large, getting outside each day living like our ancestors did has huge spiritual benefits. It feels a lot better and this channel captures some, a small part of that energy, that mentality, that lifestyle, that whatnot :)
If u put honey in hot tea. Does the heat of the tea destroy the medicinal properties of the honey?
Where is the best place to find ramps?
I'm assuming a type of onion?
Wonderful suggestions and tips.
How can I get ahold of you for a medical consultation please?
What is ramp?
Please define “oxel” or what you made with ramps infused honey. It is beyond my search engine’s understanding

What is a ramp ?
Point well taken about pumping fear. I guess so. I am one to make hay while the sun shines. Or the old marine adage: proper planning prevents piss poor performance. But I don’t think I have any desire to live in a city. Take me home country roads! I see the woods, the mountains as the handy work of God. I am tired of the works of men.
What a bae
I also don't live in fear. God said don't be anxious.
Ramps????
You talk about ramps alot but I don't know what that means.
I don't live in fear an i am a fighter which i don't stick my head in the hole and not know what is taking place. We have to be pro active than reactive. You sound like a flower child and your way too young to know what is taking place. When you get older and mature you will see what i am talking about that is if this nation survives what is taking place
