The season is definitely changing and with it comes September, a beautiful month that my first born was born into, and a super challenging month for my youngest that suffers from horrible asthma during this time. My apologies for the delay in drawing the winner of the Herbal Roots- the past couple days have been hard on my Silas and he is resting sweetly right now!
I used the ol random number generator and the winner is Heather- congrats if you want to send me your e-mail I will forward you the September Herbal Roots- it is Elderberry- a wonderful berry I remember from my childhood as the only way we ate pancakes at my grandma's house- mmm delicious purple elderberry syrup! I look forward to learning more about her medicinal properties! I will be on the lookout for some fresh that we can harvest, but I also picked up dried elderberries and a new Elderberry concentrate to put in Silas' and my tea- suppose to be great for allergies! I got mine from Wyldwood Cellars which is just a couple hours down the road- I will be putting this on the roadtrip list! I love their horse logo also- those critters keep popping up recently!
I hope your season change is going smooth! Our past weekend included more marshmallow experiments, harvesting seeds, okra, melons, and beets, and the loved fall nature walks and treasures! Here are a few more pictures from the weekend!
