A moment to catch up with everyone! Life has been going lickety-split so far this summer, and with berry harvest staring us down the barrel, we are wondering how we're going to get it all done. The smoke that's rolled into the valley is the reason I have time to write just now. Forecasts have it lightening up a bit this weekend, which is good because we are at the Penticton Ribfest Friday afternoon through to Sunday. Why is a natural health practitioner at a meat-focussed event??? Because God created humans as omnivores, both in our mouths and in our guts.


We recently held our first wildcrafted high tea and it went over smashingly well! The attendees were suitably amazed at the spread they saw, flavours they tasted, and several remarked about how full they felt. One of the attendees was vegan and a couple were vegetarian, so it had been requested that no animal products be at this particular event. But otherwise, the layout, the presentation of the space we were in, and the guests made it one for the history books!


We've also been out foraging, and dismayed to see just how dry our zones have become.


We did another advanced foraging workshop up in Vernon in partnership with Noodlelegs, and did some actual gathering during our time together. We gathered various herbs for the workshop itself where we ended with cups of fresh tea by the tailgate of the truck. It was a nice way to end the day.


The Fall schedule is taking shape. We will be at the Kelowna Farmer's Market more frequently in August while also trying to dive head-first into the berry harvest. I hope to have the website calendars updated before the end of July and then will post a new Where We'll Be Card as well. If you are wondering about a date for a workshop or event from the booking card, do reach out in the meantime to ask what's available. We can look at our pencilled in calendar and get back to you.

If the government-funded trained seals in the mainstream media bothered to do a little digging, they would’ve discovered a treasure trove of social media postings in which Bhuiyan is advertising halal-slaughtered animals for sale and visitors to the farm are referred to as 'clients.'

This passage occurs after the Great Flood. The last statement regarding the blood is why we drain our meat before eating it. One of the things I teach, is the benefits of animal-based foods in the human diet.

So I got blocked by someone over at Truth Social who was pushing Amazon products in health groups. First, why anyone still supports a company that refuses to crack down on both plagiarism and digital art theft, amazes me. As an author with friends in the artistic space affected by this behaviour, I left and took my books elsewhere. Second, encouraging people to buy what they can often get for free in their backyard or in wild spaces, also doesn't make sense, because free sources make health and wellness more affordable. It's called foraging.

A recent push for a herbal supplement was for spurilina. The big claim to fame here is the chlorophyll. Dr Mercola, in a 2017 article shared a substitute that only requires gloves and maybe snips to get - stinging nettle:

"Nettles Compared to 'Superfood' Spirulina
Although spirulina technically does grow in 'the States,' it's only one — Hawaii, as well as other exotic areas of the world, so it's understandable that many think of it as not exactly around the corner. But first of all, what is it? If you've heard of blue-green algae, you're halfway there.

Spirulina's deep blue-green color reveals its active ingredient — chlorophyll — clearly. Health . com explains it as one of the oldest life forms on Earth and possibly consumed in Aztec and African diets centuries ago.

Today it's touted for its ability to strengthen the immune system, reduce fatigue and combat allergies. Nettles are another plant with chlorophyll that even rivals the amount found in spirulina, but they're often found in ditch banks, forests and riverbanks.

"Taken over time, nettle will strengthen your circulatory, immune, and endocrine systems to promote peak function. The stronger these systems, the better position our bodies are in to deal with whatever might come our way."

Cooked or dried, though, this pesky stinging problem goes away completely; good thing, too, because this free foraging food is highly nutritious, containing fiber, lecithin, chlorophyll, sodium, iron, phosphorus, sulfur, potassium and vitamins A and C, according to Mother Earth News. It's been used in birth rooms and battlefields to stop bleeding, both internally and externally, and is considered to purify blood, as well. As a tea:

"It has been found to help cure mucus congestion, skin irritations, water retention and diarrhea … stimulate the digestive glands of the stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas and gall bladder. Applied externally, nettle tea … relieves rheumatism in both people and animals, makes a first-class gargle for
mouth and throat infections, helps to clear up acne and eczema and promotes the healing of burns."

My daughter and I began foraging over 10yrs ago, and we will either take the top 8 inches or so, or if the plant insists, the whole thing. We learned how to use gloved/sleeved hands to snap off what we want. The seeds are useful in cooking and tea as a fennel replacement. So we dry both mature and young leaves at all stages of growth.

This is beyond frightening.

Pets are travelling by air more than ever before. Yet this activity still remains a quiet part of the air cargo industry. It is rarely tracked in the same way as pharmaceuticals, perishables or e-commerce.

The following two articles just got similar updates, due to a surprising and very welcome article published today on CTV News, pointing to a connection between high-fat cheeses and creams, and lower risks of dementia! This very much goes against the low-fat narrative that's been taught over the past 30+ years, but I am so glad this is getting broader attention now! Even further against the modern narrative, high-fat cheeses and creams come from a much-vilified source . . . the animal! Milk from cows, sheep and goats is used to create creams and cheeses.

FBI: Online Cult is Modern Terrorism!

A violent online cult that the FBI calls a “new form of modern day terrorism” is targeting American children.
Story Snapshot

The FBI is probing more than 350 cases tied to the 764 network, a terror like online cult targeting kids.
Investigators say 764 members coerce minors into self harm, suicide, sexual exploitation, and animal torture on camera.

Prosecutors admit shocking loopholes in U.S. law let some 764 offenders avoid charges Americans would assume are obvious crimes.

Congress is weighing new laws while parents and grandparents are urged to protect kids from platforms that failed to police this horror.

CEO exposes Health Canada’s cloned meat plot and forces policy walk back!

DuBreton’s Vincent Breton blew the whistle on a covert policy shift that would have let lab-engineered animals bypass ‘novel food’ labels entirely, ultimately forcing Health Canada into a temporary retreat.
