Every time we talk about cold a flu herbs, we seem to start out with elderberry syrup and a good old thyme steam. Well, this time we’re going to talk about something different! Here are a few good friends to have on hand as we move into cold a flu season. Herbs discussed include white pine, sage, ground ivy, boneset, elecampane, ginger, catnip–elderflower–chamomile, and lemon! Mentioned in this podcast: Herbstalk’s Wintergreen Market – Saturday November 24th at the Armory in Somerville. We’ll be there! Ryn’s doing a demo on electuaries (pastes made with honey + herbal powders) at 2:00pm, and we’ll have a small table with our Herbal Oracle Cards and our book, Herbal Medicine for Beginners for sale! ~ If you like our podcast, you might like learning from us in a more intentional way – like with our Herbalism 101 program! It’s a great way to start incorporating herbs into your daily life, to keep you and your loved ones healthy and resilient all year round! Support the show (https://commonwealthherbs.com/supporters/)
