We planted calendula, bachelor buttons, Greek oregano and marigold, but no need for a dehydrator... yet! I’ve just been spreading my herbs on a sheet pan and letting nature do her glorious work! . . . #virginiasvittles #bachelorbuttons #calendula #greekoregano #marigolds #dehydratingfood #herbalism #foodiesofinstagram #foodie #dehydratedflowers

I went out looking for red clover, which seems to have been mowed over, but look at what else we found! Wineberries, blackberries, yarrow, Russian red kale, dandelion leaves, arugula, oregano, bachelor buttons, marigold, and calendula. I thought I had found mugwort, but I think I’ll have to try again. . . #earthmagick #earthmagic #naturesbounty #berries #wineberries #blackberries #wildgreens #virginiasvittles #virginiaisforfoodlovers #instafood #foodie #foodiegram #gratitude

After breakfast, we’ve been walking the gardens and talking about how herbs act as medicine. We gather different medicinals and talk about them. Passing this wisdom along enhances its meaning for me. . . #herbalism #herbalwisdom #earthstewards #motherearth #gaia #loveis #instadaily #mompreneur #mommyhood #barefoot

Where else but in the plant kingdom can we witness a whole life cycle in the span of a few seasons? . . I’ve been reading a lot lately, and I am giving a brief description from something I read. It was something along the lines of “instead of seeing plants as resources for the taking, we could see them as companions that have within them ways to communicate and respond, as friends often do.” . . I was struck by the beauty of that way of thinking, and that’s what Herbalism teaches us. . . Innately, we already know this, but we have to re-train our minds to “remember what we already know.” Much like when we were children, the magic was plain to see. In the fast pace of rising to a modern lifestyle, we lose sight of the honor which different beings around us naturally are entitled to. It’s such a beautiful way to see life and our interconnectivity to one another, plant and animal alike. . . How have plants inspired you? . . #magic #magickingdom #plantsofinstagram #plants #plantkingdom #lifecycle #herbalism #gaia #motherearth #earthstewards #carefortheplanet #earth #virginiasvittles
