teaching-your-kids-herbalism-on-a-budget
With August already here, many homeschooling parents are in the deep throws of planning the school year ahead. I have been there! Picking and choosing which curriculums to go with. Deciding what topics to cover. Pouring through online resources to decide which to purchase.
And also realizing I don’t have enough funds to purchase all the fancy options available that I want to use.
These are difficult times we are living in. Many of us are finding ourselves struggling to make ends meet right now so often as a homeschooling parent, school curriculum can seem like a luxury.
With the rising cost of living, including healthcare, learning herbalism may not seem like a necessity but now more than ever, herbalism is very relevant to our lives.
In the past few years I have watched my beloved passion go from fringe knowledge to mainstream consciousness and with that has come the capitalistic base of people trying to sell exotic herbs as the end all be all of herbalism, often making herbalism seem too expensive and out of reach to learn about and practice.
But did you know that it’s extremely possible to learn herbalism on a budget?

making-monday-make-a-catnip-toy
Welcome to Making Monday with Herbal Roots zine! I'm Kristine Brown today I'm going to demonstrate how to make a Catnip Toy.
Cats love Catnip just as much as people so make some Catnip toys for the cats in your life.
To make a Catnip toy, you will need:
Dried Catnip
Cotton batting or scrap fabrics
1 square of felt - any color you choose You can also use a durable fabric such as cotton flannel for this
6 inches coordinating yarn
Embroidery floss (can match or contrast with the felt & yarn)
Needle
Ink pen or fabric chalk
Scissors
Mouse template
Print off and cut out the Mouse templates.
Lay the templates on your felt. Trace out two of template A (body) and one of template B (base) using the ink pen or fabric chalk.
Cut out the pieces.
Use the embroidery floss and needle to blanket stitch the top and sides of the two body pieces together.
Blanket stitch the bottom to the body, leaving the backside open.
Stuff the toy half full of Catnip then finish filling with cotton batting or fabric scraps to finish stuffing.
Blanket stitch hallway across the final seam. Do not finish off the thread, you will finish sewing the seam after you add the tail.
Tie a knot into one end of the yarn and tuck it into the body of the mouse.
Close the rest of the seam with a blanket stitch.
Knot off your embroidery thread and trim.
You may wish to try the mouse’s tail a bit shorter.
The toy is ready to be played with!

making-monday-making-pink-water
Welcome to Making Monday with Herbal Roots zine! I'm Kristine Brown today I'm going to demonstrate how to make an old Appalachian folk remedy called Pink Water.
Poke is a low dose botanical herb but don't let that stop you from utilizing this amazing herb.
I learned this remedy from herbalist Phyllis D. Light.
Pink Water is great for flushing out your body after an illness, when that illness seems to linger.
You will need:
8 Poke berries
2 quart jars, one filled with water
A fork or spoon
A strainer
The following is a suggested guideline for using Pink Water. As always, use discretion and adjust the dosage to you or your child's sensitivities. It's better to use less than more if you are unsure.
Children 2-6 or 35-70 pounds should consume no more than 1/8-1/4 cup over the course of the day
Children 7-12 or 70-100 pounds should consume no more than 1/2-1 cup
Children over 12 and Adults weighing 100-125 pounds consume 1-2 cups
Adults 125-150 pounds should consume 2-3 cups
Adults over 150 pounds should consume 1 quart

Welcome to Storytime with Herbal Roots zine! I'm Kristine Brown and I wrote this story to help you learn about herbs.
Today, I'm reading from Issue 63 - Checking Out Chicory (April 2014) which you can find here: https://www.herbalrootszine.com/product/april-2014-checking-chicory/
Like Dandelion, Chicory loves the liver!
He is hepatic, alterative and depurative, working to bring the body back to balance through the removal of toxins both in the blood and the liver.
While restoring liver function, Chicory’s side effect to this action helps to clear the skin of toxins, promoting clearer skin and clearing acne. Taken over time, Chicory acts as a tonic on the liver and digestive system to restore proper function.
As a digestive, his stomachic action tones the stomach, improving its function and increasing appetite. Chicory also has a mild laxative or aperient effect on the bowels to help relieve constipation.
Egyptian researchers have discovered that Chicory root has benefits to the heart. As a cardiotonic, Chicory slows a rapid heartbeat and is a mild heart stimulant.
Poultices of Chicory greens soothe inflammation and are astringent, making them ideal for using as a skin wash to treat irritated skin. In fact, fresh Chicory leaves were often crushed and chopped up, formed into small round cakes then dried until needed. They would then be dropped into rosewater to be used for pimples, blemishes, to make complexions fair and to heal chapped skin.
As one of Bach’s 12 key flower remedies, Chicory is referred to as the Motherliness Flower and is recommended to those who demand love in negative behaviors such as temper tantrums, blackmail, making demands or refusing to let go of ideas, things and feelings.

Welcome to Storytime with Herbal Roots zine! I'm Kristine Brown and I wrote this story to help you learn about herbs.
Today, I'm reading from Issue 01 - Mellow Marshmallow (February 2009) which you can find here: https://www.herbalrootszine.com/product/february-2009-mellow-marshmallow/
Marshmallows?! Am I talking about those white fluffy confections that you can melt over a campfire?
Yes and no!
A long time ago, Marshmallows were made by combining powdered Marshmallow root with a sweetener and other ingredients to make confections that children could suck on to soothe sore throats and dry coughs. The first marshmallow candies were made over 3,000 years ago in Egypt!
Needless to say, over time they became a popular treat and the Marshmallows you know today have no trace of the plant’s root in them!
Marshmallow has many medicinal actions still in use today in other forms as well.
Did you know that okra, hollyhocks, hibiscus, cacao and cotton are all related to Marshmallow? If you compare the plants, they all look really similar.
Marshmallow is sweet, moistening and cooling. The root is eaten as a vegetable in some parts of the world and contains calcium, iron, iodine, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, vitamins A, C and B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin, B3 (niacin), and N5 (pantothenic acid.
Besides helping with a sore throat and dry cough, marshmallow is soothing and cooling to our digestive and urinary tracts too!
A cold infusion of the root or leaf can help relieve constipation.
We can use marshmallow externally to sooth dry, irritated eyes or applied as a poultice to relieve skin conditions that are hot, dry, and irritated.
That’s just a few of the many things that Marshmallow can be used
