Our favourite daily tea is made of elderberry blossoms with fresh lemon juice and honey. It is so fragrant and so very tasty tea! It is fine hot, but we love it cold, along the day. Greetings from Romania, Europe. You are awesome and everything that you do is just great!

Pumn de tarîna the elderberry flower or the berries?

Mint, chamomile, cloves, anise, and dehydrated orange. I’m not sure why all of those together but I love it with some honey.

Spearmint, lemongrass (greenhouse grown), and pineapple mint. It's so good iced in the summer time. 💜 Dean'na Blue Bucket Farm

5:20 Great reminder for us all...slow down, enjoy, create space for remembrance later in the year. Thank you!

Hi from Ontario, Canada! Your channel and content keep my dreams of a simplier life alive. My five year old son just watched this video with me. We just made him some tea..he wants to try different ones now. Inspiring!

This was so satisfying to watch, Shaye. And that sumptuous jar of honey at the end... delightful. xx

You have the most romantic kitchen with such a beautiful view out that large window. The morning light in this video has my heart pitter-pattering.

I’m so happy you uploaded today. Your videos have saved my mental health during this quarantine. I’m grateful for you and look forward to creating my own homestead in the near future.

In the morning after the dew is gone is the best time to pick herbs there fragrant and oils are the highest

Such a beautiful video! All your videos have this romantic feel to it and makes us fall in love with nature all over again🌸

Your voice is so calming! The place where you live is so Beautiful. Thank you for sharing!

Your videos are like a hug from a family member that you haven’t seen in a long time, and you’re so looking forward to it ❤️

I love how slow your videos are. I feel like I need that in my life and you offer examples on how to achieve it♥️ so Thank you!

I forgot....Your Garden looks so clean, organized, & Beautiful! You've been working so hard to get to where it is today• Thank you!

The rooster!!! I will have the darn I’ve always longed to have and grow old in. I can see it, I can taste it. Thank you for showing us your home :)

Oh I loved this👏👏👏 I’ve been doing this for the last two years. Like you, I thought there was some mysterious special thing I had to do😅 but now I make tissane or herbal bends from my garden all the time. I often gift them to friends & family at Christmas time. My favorites are Linden flowers (I have two huge trees). I’m also loving lemon balm as well as hyssop. In the fall I gather gobs of rosehips...they’re so good for you! Anyway...thanks for sharing😊

hi, yes like my mom she used to pick lovely and good memories,thanks

You're an example for our life! Thank you from Veneto Italy🌱🌹🌺🌻

That was a beautiful video! Your property is so glorious!

The flowers and leaves look so pretty collected into your basket! That first plant you stopped at, you called it bee balm, and normally I've only heard that for a couple of species of Monarda, but the plant in the video looks like Centaurea, probably Centaurea montana, mountain cornflower or sometimes called bachelor's buttons (it is a cousin the fuller flowers more commonly known as bachelor's buttons). I have never heard it called bee balm, but common names are slippery like that, so I wondered if it was a regional name for this flower. Oddly, people over here say honeysuckle when we mean columbine - it is the strangest thing but very widespread! I grew up saying it, too. So much fun to see these spring blooms and remember it won't be long.

Glad to see you bringing light to herbal teas! We enjoy mint and lemon balm multiple times a week! I've never thought about doing rose petals, definitely going to incorporate that. Thanks for the inspiration 😘

Hi Shaye! I planted what you put in your tea this year in my garden. I am totally happy. I drink the tea nearly nightly and it is just magical. It really seems to deepen my sleep and refreshes me. Super cool. I didn't get a chamomile harvest but I have blossoms stored. I haven't added that to my tea as yet. Thx for the blessing of the video, the harvest and the direct affect it has had on my life!

Bonjour Shaye! I'm just starting my garden since we moved in recently but we already are enjoying mint. Thank you for the lovely videos, I recently found your channel and it is delightful. Cheers from Provence, France. 🌞 Claire

Your kids are so fortunate to grow up this way! It’s magical!

Oh that is a dream for us: cottage garden! We have plenty of spaces both front and back. However, it's the back that we would have the treasured herbs and edible flowers. In front is pretty, scented and for high desert life, heat tolerant. We do not plan on staying here as I told hubby I want someplace with green.

I also have a mint plant. I love it. I use to flavor so many things. Love your garden. Great post!

My boys always loved mint and chamomile When they were sick in the winter....

I love making spring tea from my yard. So delicious.

Love how laid back this video is. Great job with it and all looks like its growing well.

What a beautiful garden to spend time in,So happy to see your bee hives.

Your garden is lovely...you are lovely. I find such peace watching your videos. Thank you. 💖

RE: Gertrude Jekyl "But look at her offering, it's beautiful . . ." I love that wording...

So calm and loving...just what I needed after a stressful day

That was a delight!

So lovely. I forgot about raspberry leaves. I will do this tomorrow.

One of my favourite roses. That tea blend sounds and looks delicious.

What a great morning to upload. We got our 3 lil pigs yesterday. I moved the baby chicks to the grass. Checked on the pigs, sat down for a drink, and here you are, MAKING A DRINK!!!!

Your videos are my mental Happy place!! Thank you!

That was perfect! I just walked in from my herb garden. Thank you, thank you.

Thank you for sharing your most gentle videos. They are as calming as chamomile tea ;-)

yummmm I have been enjoying making combinations of all the things I have dried, its lovely! I am a fan of orange peel, mint, and cloves

Yay, new video! 👌🏻♥️

This was so beautiful to experience with you! Thank you 🙏

nothing like a good cup of tea, my favourite!

Amazing video! 🌼💕🌼Love all the plants, beautiful garden! My favourite is the forest fruit tea! 🍵

I bought a rapsberry bush and a David Austin rose just to make this tea. I have enjoyed it all winter and I highly recommend! Thank you so musch, Shaye!

Man!!! That mountain view is gorgeous!

Hello from Tyler, Texas, Rose Capital of America. I just found your channel and love it! I love a mixer of hibiscus and cornflowers and rose hips. Also lemon balm and rosemary.

What a delightful video - such a lush feast for the eyes! When you were sprinkling the rose petals into your basket, I felt as if I could almost smell them. 😉🌿

This is a beautiful cup of tea! Inspiring!!

Lovely and calming. I needed these 12 minutes of reprieve. Thank you! ♡

Wow! Your garden is just so beautiful!

Lovely! It now seems completely obvious - I've heard of raspberry leaf tea, but it never occurred to me it would be just raspberry leaves!! It's cold here now so I'm going to go grab some from the garden and see what it tastes like! I have the most beautifully scented roses out there so I'll give that a go too. Thanks for the inspiration! 🙂

I love this. I'm from the UK so obviously our chamomile comes later than yours but the combination of chamomile, lavender and lemon balm makes a delicious bed time tea. 😊

Being that its spring once again, please make another video like this!

Great video once again Shaye!🥰

The content of your vlogs are so calming and relaxing to watch. There is such a romantic quality to your videos. You can tell that you take the time to appreciate the simple things in life. The only negative thing I have to say is that you don’t post often enough! We need more lol! Much love to your family😊

Love your videos. Can’t wait to try this. You’re always coming up with such lovely ideas. Thank you

Love the colors of the ingredients. I have never tried making my own tea, but think i will try. Thanks for sharing. Blessings.

Your garden is looking so lush! Would love an updated garden tour soon

My daughter and I made a tea with lavender, mint, chamomile and lemon balm. (You can also use lemon verbena, both are wonderful.) It was delicious! The video today was just really lovely. Tell Stu great job on the music. The Viewpoints music just captures the magical feeling of your homestead in the mountains, it adds that special lovely mysterious atmosphere.

Wow your garden is beautiful. It’s like it woke up over night.

Your garden is looking fantastic!

I love your beautiful gardens. 🌿🌸🌿🌼🌿

That's genius puting your dehydrator down there off the counter top but still easy to get to.

I never get tired of watching your videos.beautiful little paradise 🌺🌹🌷🌸

I love nettle, raspberry leaf, mint and dandelion and drink those regularly. Not to mention chamomile lavender and hibiscus tea. I think I will start growing these myself. Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring!

Oh I bet it smells amazing in your house while those dehydrate! 🌸

Yummie spring garden tea ! Hi from the Netherlands ;-)

Very helpful and so peaceful to watch. Thank you.

Super advice! Thank you!

You are so inspiring ❤️ thanks for the wonderfull ideas! 🥰😘

Really good video! Thank you!!

Another amazing...sight for sore eyes video. Greetings from Greece♥♥♥

This is such a lovely video, and I really enjoyed watching it! I will be sure to now try some lovely Herbal tea! 😋👌🏻

Beautiful as always Shay . That's such a great idea , I used to get fresh tea from Burlington VT. I broke my French press😳 I'll have to get another. I found mint to day in my new old cottage garden. Thanks for sharing. 😘 JO JO IN VT 💕😄

I don't know why I hadn't thought to dry my own tea, such a good idea. I just bought a dehydrator at the end of summer last year, and I'm learning so much. Thanks for sharing!

Love your country living. Where do you get your baskets lovely.The one that you carry to collect your herbal tea I think that is beautiful looks like a tree help you carry things

Look at you- you are so fun!

hello shaye, love your videos, thank you! just wanted to ask/ comment about the “bee balm” you mentioned. i have the same plant in my garden and i believe it’s centaurea montana and i don’t think it’s edible. i think what’s more often called bee balm is in the mint family- monarda. not 100% sure but aim always interested to learn more about plants, so i thought i’d share. i love drying chamomile and mint and lavender for tea too to bring a bit of spring into winter for a relaxing mug before bed 💛. also love to add dried elder flowers to this mix!

Kathleen McGorman What she was picking is Monarda (bee balm), I ordered some from Bluestone Perennials. It may look a bit similar to the plant you are referring to.

I add hyssop to my tea blend. Nettles are good too. Lemon verbena, lemon balm, tulsi, lavender flowers all wonderful additions to a mix! Love that David Austin Rose! I used to have a Gertrude Jekyll in a previous garden, and its on my list again. They are stunning!

Your garden is looking BEAUTIFUL! We are in New Zealand so heading in to winter so very different things going on in the garden, always love seeing your videos :)

I'm a newish subscriber to both you and Angela. I'm loving all your videos and your podcast is amazing! I've been binge listening while doing dishes or folding laundry. I feel like I've found "my people" 😊🌷

This was so amazing. I never knew how to do this!! Thank you. I was beautiful 🌸🌸

I love growing my own herbal tea...Loved the video.

I love this video!! 🤩

I would love a big jar of honey like that. Thank you for the video.

Thank you🌻This video is wonderful🌱☕️💚

your video is so calming to watch. :) your garden is such an inspiration :)

Beautiful video with great info!

Informative as always. You are an inspiration. Thank you!

Your garden is lovely. I love all the paths. Each time I watch your videos, it seems like your hair is a different color. You really change it often. The blonde looks very nice.

Thank you Elliot is the first time that I saw your video. Is interesting...

Thanks much for this video 💗🌺

a beautiful video!!

Shaye! How do you figure out what to do with the ugly things of life? Piles of kid shoes? technology stuff? Just clutter and things that you don't know what to do with? You have so much loveliness in your house and yard and I know it's very intentional, but there MUST be areas that are less lovely, right? I feel like i"m surrounded by so much unloveliness all the time And I'm too busy with just keeping it all at bay that I can't seem to figure out how to create anything better... Any help?

Agreed. Start with only keeping what you absolutely need. It helps SO much. For example, then you only need 1 boot trunk.....LOL

Also lean into things that seem "unlovely." Piles of kids shoes show a happy family, technology shows an ability to connect with others, ECT. Of course organizing and downsizing but the ordinary is what makes up the beauty of our lives

Fresh back current leafs are the best for tea and pickling !

I love your Place. Very enchanting... 🌺🌸🌻🌼🌹🌷

I could watch this video all day

I found this fascinating I love to watch these type of vlogs. Can you any type of rose petal although Gertrude jeckle is one of my personal favourites xx

Beautiful garden
