Making an infused vinegar is easy and a great way to use up twigs and branches leftover from your pine or fir tree! 🌲 HOW TO: Fill your jar with the Fir needles and fill with vinegar. Secure with the lid and place in the cupboard for 4-6 weeks. Strain the infused vinegar and use in your homemade cleaners. Jars ➡️ I love Weck Jars for my herbal crafts. Vinegar ➡️ I used white vinegar but you can experiment with other vinegars like apple cider. #vinegar #infusedvinegar #weckjar #weckjarsrecipes #greencleaning #cleaningvinegar #cleaningdiy #naturalcleaning #plasticfreepackaging #herbs

These herbal bath melts are relaxing and will leave your skin feeling soft and nourished. 🌹 What You Need: 🌹3 ounces cocoa butter 🌹1.5 ounces shea butter 🌹10-20 drops of rose or geranium essential oil 🌹dried rose flowers (optional) How To Make Them: Melt the cocoa and shea butter in a double boiler over low-medium heat. Once melted, remove the oils from the heat and mix in the essential oils. Pour the mixture into molds and let cool. If you're using dried herbs, add them before filling the molds.  I used heart-shaped molds for Valentine's Day, but you can use your favorite shape or even ice cube trays. How To Use Them: Drop 1-2 bath melts into a warm bath and watch them melt away in the bath water. Store leftover bath melts in a cool, dry place or in the refrigerator.  Ingredients: Treat your skin with the best. You deserve it! I purchase my herbs, oils, and butters from @mountainroseher and @mountainrosemercantile   #herbs #botanicals #homemadeskincare #herbsandoils #rose #roseoil #bathmelts #diy #selfcare #valentinesday #cocoabutter #sheabutter #naturalskincare

This earthy soup is creamy and delicious. Make this when you need to warm up on a drizzle cold night! This recipe is based on a Hungarian Soup recipe that's been passed around at our local mushroom festival. I've made this recipe as written and also with all plant-based ingredients. Both taste amazing and are the perfect dish for using these beautiful foraged mushrooms we've been so blessed to forage this winter.   Hungarian Soup 🍄1lb fresh mushrooms - (I used a mix of hedgehogs and golden chanterelles) 🍄2 cups chopped onions 🍄4 tbsp butter or olive oil 🍄3 tbsp flour 🍄1 cup of milk (I used homemade cashew milk) 🍄2 tsp dried dill 🍄1 tbsp Hungarian paprika 🍄1 tbsp tamari 🍄2 cups vegetable broth 🍄Fresh parsley 🍄2 tsp lemon juice 🍄1/2 cup sour cream (I used cashew-based sour cream) 🍄salt & pepper INSTRUCTIONS: ▪️Saute onions with 2 tbsp of oil/butter. Once cooked, add in mushrooms, dill, paprika, tamari, and 1/2 cup of broth.  ▪️Cover and simmer for 25 minutes. ▪️Melt the remaining butter (or oil - I used olive oil) in a separate saucepan and whisk in flour. Cook, whisking for a few minutes.  ▪️Add in milk and continue to cook, stirring frequently over low heat. Once the mixture is thickened, stir in the cooked mushroom mixture and the remaining vegetable stock.  ▪️Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes. ▪️Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the sour cream, parsley, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.  #mushrooms #hedgehogs #chanterelles #foraging #mushroomrecipes #soup #feedfeed #pnw #oregon #vegansoup #vegetarian #plantbased

OrthoEase Hack This is by far my favorite massage oil! Especially since I've been lifting 🏋🏾‍♀️ and am sore regularly (or maybe I'm just getting old). Last year it was reformulated due to Wintergreen shortages. This product also contained gluten (from wheat germ oil), which was removed with the reformulation. With the reformulation, Wintergreen was removed. This was sad for me because I really liked the cooling effect this had on my joints. YL added lavender, clove, and copaiba essential oils to the massage oil and upped the amount of peppermint, lemongrass, and vetiver oils. All of these oils are soothing and help relieve occasional pain (research these oils - they are awesome!). Here's what I do to get that cooling effect: I add 20-30 drops of Wintergreen to the bottle. Sometimes more if needed, and sometimes I add peppermint too! Let the oils mix in the bottle overnight before using. I feel like this massage oil is even better, and when I add Wintergreen, it's even better!

I love juicing fresh greens but don't always have time to make fresh juice. That's why I always keep green powders on hand! Powdered greens are made up of various fruits, veggies, grasses, herbs, and mushrooms and offer a ton of nutrition in a single scoop. I had a green powder that I drank for over ten years, but they, unfortunately, went out of business :( I recently switched to Ningxia greens, and I LOVE them! They taste great, and even my daughter drinks them (she mixes them with matcha to make a green/green tea drink). They're a great option and well-priced (about half the price of my previous brand).
