A nice cold and flu tea

[Dr. Patrick JonesHomestead Instructor]

The Mrs. was coming down with a real doozey of a respiratory infection yesterday…going straight to her lungs.

Last week we went up to the South Hills and collected some Elder leaves. They were just dry and beautiful so I took some and mixed it with the Yarrow and peppermint from the garden and made her a tea. She drank it and it knocked the bugs right out of her.

Tastes good too. 🙂

If you don’t have an elder bush, a yarrow patch and a peppermint patch on your place, get them planted.
