Oregano, rosemary, yarrow, chamomile, and thyme. (Kinda sounds like a song!) We plant, grow, harvest, wash and dry in the herb closet in our spare room.

For all medicinal mixtures, 1/4 dried herbs and 3/4 cheap vodka. Jar in jelly jars, pack into the crockpot, and get ready to set your alarm clock multiple times. 60 hours in the crockpot making sure to keep covered with a thin layer of water. When your base is fully cooked/steeped, then the fun begins.
For recipes, see our cookbook on our “Self-Published Books” page.
