Medicinal Parts: The roots, inner bark, leaves, berries and flowers are all recognized as natural Medical treatment.Dr Brown (1875) gives us the following: "The inner bark of Elder is hydragogue, emetic and cathartic. Has been successfully used in epilepsy by taking it from branches 1 or 2 years old, scraping off the gray outer bark, and steeping 2 ounces of it in 5 ounces of boiling water for 48 hours. Strain and give every 15 minutes when fit is threatening.ExternallyThe Elder is the Herbalist's cosmetic tree, as every part will aid in complexion beauty, removing spots, allaying irritation, removing freckles and preserving elasticity.You can use the roots, bark, twigs, leaves, and berries in tinctures, balms, salves, infused oil, or poultice for EVERY type of infection or inflammation.#DaysOfLearning #Elder #ElderberrySmart Gardening Ideas

Elder or Elderberry is an indigenous shrub growing in all parts of the United States and Canada, in low, damp grounds, thickets and waste places. They grow from 5 to 20 ft high blooming in June and July, with star-shaped fragrant flowers 1/4 inch across, grouped in flat flower clusters about 8 in across. Purple blackberries containing three or four round seeds, maturing in September and October. The fruit is often made into jellies, pies, and wine. The branching stems are covered with a rough, pitted gray bark; large central stems are smooth. The odor is faintly sweet, aromatic; taste slightly bitter. The European Elder, though larger than the American, is in general characteristics and properties similar. 🌿#DaysOfLearning #Elder #Elderberry

Pasta all’Ubriaco is perfect if you want to try one of Italy’s most underrated pasta techniques.Ingredients (serves 2) • 200 g pasta (author used spaghetti) • ½ bottle red wine • 2–3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil • 1–2 tsp chili flakes • 2–3 knobs unsalted butter • Salt (if needed) • Optional: splash of beef broth for extra depthMethod1. In a wide pan, add olive oil, garlic and chili flakes over medium heat until fragrant. 2. Pour in the red wine and bring it to a gentle simmer. 3. Add your dry pasta directly into the wine, letting it slowly soften and absorb all that flavour. 4. Keep stirring, adding a splash more wine—or beef broth if needed—until the pasta is perfectly al dente. 5. Once the wine reduces and coats every strand with that deep ruby colour, finish with cold knobs of butter. 6. Toss aggressively until glossy, silky, and creamy.Smart Gardening Ideas

Bees use Stinging Nettle to naturally protect against Verroa...we added stinging nettles to our beehives. nettle leaves contain formic & oxalic acid. both of which are manufactured commercially and sold to beekeepers as pest management tools for varroa mites.We are returning to the remedies in our backyard and leaning into our honeybees natural instincts - hoping to holistically support their natural immune systems and naturally strengthening disease resistance!Smart Gardening Ideas
