Ohan! Philamayaye!

Heck yes we have!

!!!!!!! $71!?

Howka Linda! Always good to hear from you. Have you ever heard of saliva as an offering? One of my elders taught me when we didn’t have anything on hand to offer we would spit in a rezpect way 😆 as an offering (very rare, usually when we would be out on the land but not for intentionally harvest)

It’s me Emalee Chan ☺️And we practice this here in Kumeyaay Nation

Yes that’s what we do too and my family… Hair is very important💕✨💫

Is elderflower just the flowers before they turn to berries, or is it a different plant?

When you collect the spring nettles, do you just trim some leaves off, or do you cut the base of the plant?

Yes Maggie. The same plant.

I love the iron in nettles supporting the vitamin C in the rosehips in this blend!!!!

Hi Alyssa! Did anyone answer yet? I just take the new baby growth at the top of the nettle plant so it will keep growing.

Linda, once a tea is brewed if you gift it already brewed, how long is it good for? We usually gift pre-brewed tea but not sure how long to say it lasts for so I say drink it right away.

As a tea lover I have multiple tea steeping options lol.

Wopida

Linda, question about nettles

Do the nettles you purchase, would you trust that those are the tender young growth

Or do you think that bulk nettles might be older growth?

Maggie, right now in MN is the perfect time to harvest nettle leaves.

Yes, Tara! I just harvested some this week and made some nettle soup!!!! <3

Yay, I just made some tea!

How do you powder herbs?

For things like kombucha we need raw honey.

I LOVE honey, and many of my friends keep bees. But, I just have to say it's good practice to also do some native pollinator habitat work if you are going to keep honey bees, which outcompete our native bees for floral resources. <3

how long does it take to dehydrate the mushrooms fully?

Chicken of the Woods!

I add cordyceps into my drinks daily

I haven't heard too much tradition of Lakota/Dakota eating mushrooms except for starvation food. Is that wrong to assume?

My apologies for restating what you just said, but one thing I was told when I was learning how to wild harvest in Washington was, "Harvest in a way that makes it look like you haven't even been to the spot where you are harvesting."

Are the white box alder mushrooms you are talking about oyster mushrooms?

Morels are my favorite too!

Oh yes, chanakpa - is that also called pheasant back?

Kakawa

would this be more of an electuary?

i think so, lol

Love it!

any tips regarding using fresh herbs i.e. turmeric and ginger honey paste and water content?

Do you and your family ever consume puffball mushrooms?

Yes we do! Linda likes them as a pizza topping!

Yum! Thank you Luke

Hello! and thank you for all this information! How much of the salt soak would you use for each bath?

Thank you so much, Linda! I gotta run to my next meeting, this was so awesome, as always! I would love to talk more about the chankapa sometime. Toksa!

Girlllll same! Haha
