"Chamomile is easy to grow and a meditation to harvest."
These words from my long-time dear friend and herbal pal, Mary Plantwalker, couldn't be more true! Chamomile doesn't require much to thrive, but be prepared to devote yourself to its gathering.
Chamomile is precious floral currency; the flowers are light as a feather when dried and take more time to harvest than most other medicines in the garden. The blossoms need to be gathered every few days, otherwise the plant will quickly go to seed and begin to die back.
The blooms can be pinched off with your fingertips or snipped with a small, sharp pair of garden scissors. Plan on taking your time. The small flowers appear in generous quantities and will absorb your attention for more fragrant moments than your might imagine. A meditation, indeed!
No wonder chamomile is used around the world to help calm the nerves and encourage relaxation.
If you'd like to gather up more tips for starting an herb garden, take a peek at Mary Plantwalker's newest article on our blog: Medicinal Herb Gardening for Beginners:

Mary is one of the most passionate plant people and active earth stewards that I know. She’s also a phenomenal gardener who has been steeping herself in the herbal world for the past 27 years. She tends an incredible botanical sanctuary at her home, Herb Mountain Farm in Western North Carolina, where she hosts a weekly food and medicine farmers market. I am always inspired when I step foot in her garden, which is featured in my forthcoming book, The Healing Garden.
You can take a sneak peek at her colorful gardens and herbal musings on Instagram and via her website:

Vanilla Extract:
I was asked to re-share how I make my vanilla extract so here it is!

Here's how I make my vanilla extract. At the end I'll give a link to where I buy my Vanilla Beans.

Homemade Vanilla Extract:

3 Vanilla beans for every 8 ounces of liquid - this time I actually used 4 vanilla beans per bottle and each bottle is 8 ounces.

Vodka - you can use any brand - it doesn't have to be an expensive brand. In fact I usually get the least expensive I can find. It should be 80 proof.

Take a sharp knife and cut from almost the top to almost the bottom of the bean - but don't cut through. Scrape the inside a little to get the stuff loosened up a bit

Put the vanilla beans in your jar. I really like these new bottles I just got!

Cover the beans with your vodka. I use a funnel to keep from making a mess!!

Put the lid on your jar, shake it gently a couple of times, and then place in a cool dark place.

Shake it gently every day for a week and then once a week for the duration.

You can use it after 6 weeks but it gets better the longer it steeps. I often let mine steep for 4 or 5 months.

If you want double strength Vanilla Extract just use extra beans.

Just an aside - for the size of these bottles I had to cut the beans in half first so they would fit in the bottles.

That's it folks. These make wonderful gifts that your friends and family will love.

Enjoy!!

I buy my vanilla beans at 'Native Vanilla'. You can get as little as 5 beans for $9.99 - compared to $11.99 for 1 bean at Walmart! The link to their site is https://nativevanilla.com/
There's a little drop down thing in the upper left side of the page that allows you to sign up for their emails and get 10% off your first order!

And here's the link to where I got my bottles...
