Another really cool galvanized/wood raised bed. Look how much food you could grow in here! 😎

I highly encourage all Christian Moms and Dads, even if you're not Orthodox, to read the lives of the Saints to your children. They provide a wonderous example of how to live a pious and God centered life. The Saints' struggles and plights tend to make ours seem trivial by comparison. Yet the strength of the Saints do not waver for they put their full faith and trust in the Lord. There are even 20th century Saints who help show us how to live a holy life even in the face of the modern world.

Passionflower is blooming. One of the most intricate flowers I've ever seen.
This is one of my favorite flowers as it always blooms in August, just as summer is hinting at cooling down.
I like to dry these for tea and/or tincture them in vodka to be used medicinally for stress relief, anxiety or insomnia.
To make a tincture using the folk method, chop the fresh herb material very finely and submerge in vodka in a glass jar using a 1:2 ratio.
It is very important to shake the jar vigorously at least twice a day. After a minimum of two weeks the tincture is done. Strain & press out the plant material & reserve the medicinal alcohol in a glass jar or bottle.
Tinctures have a shelf life of up to 10 years.
The MOST important thing to consider when making a high quality herb tincture is *using FRESH herb material*.
It is very important to make the mixture as soon as possible (ideally within minutes) after harvesting.
This truly captures & preserves the vitality of the medicinal qualities of the plant.

Imagine an OBGYN looking you dead in the eye and telling you, a pregnant woman, that you shouldn’t eat sushi, but this experimental gene therapy with no long term studies and proven hormone disrupting side affects is “recommended.”
I just pruned our wildly growing shrubs and the weed trees out of them. Kids are outside doing their part now bagging the leaves and branches 🌿🍃 Turn off the TV and put your kids to work! 💪🏻 #CharacterBuilding #LessTVmoreOutdoorTime
Doing a lot of activity outside can set off allergies. Drink hot turmeric tea with honey to help relieve sore throat and sinus issues. This brand is delicious! 😋

Seeing a child drinking from his hands, Diogenes threw away his cup and remarked, "A child has beaten me in plainness of living."
For anyone else suffering with seasonal pollen/grass/weeds allergies or Hay Fever right now, this is worth a read! :
