Zen and the Art of Scything
I have just learned to scythe so goodbye to the smelly strimmer! Scything is like a meditation - you go with the flow and lose yourself in the repetitive motion.
If you are interested in using herbs as medicine, have a look at my online course danusirishherbgarden.com/prod... and the other courses that are held here at Danu's Irish Herb Garden. All the information is on the website

I also offer Wise Woman Way training which is a transpersonal course following the Celtic Wheel of the Year and building a circle of Plant Allies. More details here - danusirishherbgarden.com/wise...
My books, The Weed Handbook Volumes 1 and 2 are available from the shop. danusirishherbgarden.com/prod...

Hello greetings from Co Cork, I just discovered you channel and I plan to look at some more of your videos, I hope you have some on making natural skincare products as I would love to try making some, I love using a scythe, I use my husbands one but it is very heavy, your scythe looks very light, can I ask you please where did you get it and was the handle specially made for you, thank you. Mary.
While we Wait...give it...40 Wacks!
Wonderful to see a new convert to the scythe. I am 77 this year and still work with the scythe every year. Now teaching my grandsons how to work the meadows. Cheers and blessings from Canada
Another great show. We have the long blades it. She uses as a decoration. I've watched your videos before. Every time it looks like you are slender. I believe it's the herbs, vegetables and The natural medicines that you take. Still looking for your books and Barnes & Noble.Maybe I'll have to go online at the amazon. I've bless you and your family.God bless you and your family.God bless you america and the world. God bless the children and keep them safe from harm.❤👍🙏🇺🇲😉🌹
I really need to get one of those! It looks like a lot of fun. It's a great workout for sure. I won't cut my grass because I don't want to hurt anything living in the grass ( actually it is about 30% grass and 70% everything else 😂) I wonder where I could get one in England? Thanks Terri for yet more inspiration ❤
Wow, I am impressed, well done and thank you so much for sharing, just what you need with your land, and amazing for your health too.
I watched your video where you used the cutting rake on your garden. I'm not sure which to purchase now, the scythe or the bladed rake. I need to cut down rhe growth in our yards but always hated the noise and smell of the motorized devices. Thank you for showing us your scythe, Terri.
You missed a spot Mrs.Terri 👴
When growing up I remember watching my Dad use his Scythe & thinking he must be the most skilled user of anyone. (not that I saw anyone else use one) He would sway back and forth in the most rhythmic motion, never a hiccup. I so wanted to ask him if I could give it a try but I knew he would say no. He most likely thought it could be a danger to me but also he was a bit of an impatient person so I didn't want to get scolded. It's a good memory anyway. 🙂
Terri, I always look forward to your new videos, as you said, it takes me back to my childhood, watching the men and boys out working the fields while I ran around barefoot in the tall grass of the fields. ❤
Do you have Ticks there ?
Thank you just brought a scythe so love this . Thank you 🙏
Scythes over weed-eaters!
Dear Terri, thanks for this Video with all my Heart! Here on my ground in hungary the tractorist killed 2 does with a Mulch mower tractor. IT was a Drama. Consequently i considered for the Future straw mulching to make mowing altogether unnecessary. Then also Markus Burghard, a well-known gardener from Austria, suggested mowing with a skythe or a Beam mower (Hope IT IS the fitting Word in english). I shall ask him to send me such an austrian skythe with a Bush blade, because i also am Not very strong, i mean, No Herkules. Terri, you did a good Thing to Produce this Video. I also hate the stiehl device with ITS noise and the danger to kill animals.
Got my Scythe!
Is that an earthbag house?
Great Video. I just got old Scythe and I'm going to sharpen it and use it. Your video is Helpful. Thank You!!!
A beautiful exercise in serenity, and gratitude to the plants for providing the chickens with comfort! Lovely.
It looks like fun. I have wanted one for some time...perhaps this spring!
That’s a great demonstration. A nicely produced video too.
