Common Yarrow, Achillea millefolium, is another plant commonly found growing in grasslands and on roadsides, and it may just help to lower your blood pressure! This plant has also been used as an astringent, and it can be dried and ground into a powder that can stop bleeding!

Have you ever locked your keys in your vehicle? Well, I do it all the time. It didn't use to be such a big deal when we lived in the same city that I work in. My wife kept the spare, and she was usually able to bring it over to me. However, now that we live and my wife works 45 minutes away from my job... So, when I most recently locked my keys in my truck, I REEAAALLY didn't want to have to call and have her drive nearly an hour just to bring me my keys; but, I REEALLY didn't want to pay a locksmith, either! Thankfully, I was about to encounter A Tiny Parking Lot MIRACLE. ************************************************************************************ Put your content out there for the entire world to see and earn FREE cryptocurrency at the same time at STEEMIT.com www.steemit.com ************************************************************************************ Interested in seeing more from the Sustainably Yours Homestead?

It occurred to me recently that Our Little Homestead Helper has never had the opportunity to pick a fresh strawberry. So, I've been watching our FREE strawberry plants to see if they would make a few more before the end of the season. Surprisingly, they've been doing really well and have begun producing! In this video, I get to spend a little bit of time teaching Our Little Homestead Helper how things work in the garden, and you get to be there when she picks her first ever strawberry! #shedwars #teamwoodcutter ************************************************************************************ Check Us Out On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Sustainably-Yours-Homestead-417473462430857/ ************************************************************************************ Music: Grass by Silent Partner: https://youtu.be/VlohuOGWzG8 ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dADRiEpROpw

Our potatoes have sprouted! Could we be on the way to 100 pounds of potatoes? This is the first update in our little potato box experiment. So far, things seem to be going well. In this video, I pull back the leaf mulch in the potato box to reveal nice little sprouts of potatoes peeking out of the ground! ************************************************************************************ If you're interested in seeing the background work and information that I gathered in preparation for this experiment, complete with sources, check out my blog post: https://steemit.com/steemstem/@sustainablyyours/research-in-preparation-of-attempting-to-grow-100-pounds-of-potatoes-in-a-4x4-box ************************************************************************************ Interested in seeing more from the Sustainably Yours Homestead?
