It's been a busy week at Tilia!

With cold and flu season about to get into full swing, we have been busy preparing many of our great immune products. This week, our team prepared over a hundred bottles and jars of products to make winter bearable. Elderberry & Rosehip syrup, Herbal Cough Syrup, Creston's Original Fire Cider, and even yummy jams and jellies. All our products feature local organic or ethically wild harvested ingredients, and all the recipes were developed by our medical herbalist Rachel, so you can be confident that they are safe & effective. 🌿

We're so proud of how hard Tilia team members, Courts, Brenda, Alice, and Courtney worked on making all of these great items. They always add a dash of love to everything they make, and these healing products are no exception. đź©·

At Tilia Botanicals we are incredibly honoured to be able to practice herbalism on the traditional lands of the Ktunaxa people and to learn from the Lower Kootenay band elders about the plants of this area.

In recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation we will be closed on Tuesday September 30th. We encourage everyone to take time on this day to educate themselves on ways to support our First Nation peoples on their healing journey.

It's pumpkin spice time!

Pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin spice muffins, pumpkin spice cookies ... pumpkin spice everything!

We have created a delicious new Organic Pumpkin Spice blend to help you make amazing treats this Fall. To get you started on your baking adventures we are taking 15% off when you purchase any size of this spice blend during September.

To inspire you we are sharing a recipe below from our recent newsletter for you to try. These gluten free cookies are so yummy!

Tilia's Pumpkin Spice Almond Flour Cookies

Âľ cup regular butter or butter substitute, softened

1 cups white sugar

½ cup brown sugar, packed

Âľ cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 ÂĽ cups almond flour

1 ½ Tablespoons cornstarch

2 teaspoons Tilia Botanical’s Pumpkin Spice blend

½ teaspoon baking soda

ÂĽ teaspoon salt

1 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup walnut or pecans pieces

Directions: Using an electric mixer, beat the butter, brown sugar and white sugar until combined, then add in the pumpkin and vanilla. Beat in the almond flour, cornstarch, pumpkin spice blend, baking soda and salt until well mixed in. Fold in the chocolate chips and candied pecans. Place the dough in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes (or overnight).

While the dough chills, prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper and then preheat the oven to 350F. Scoop the chilled dough onto the cookie sheets using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon. (About 2 Tablespoons dough per ball. Don’t use your hands to form balls as the dough is too sticky).

Bake for 15-18 minutes. They will continue to firm up as they cool. Pumpkin cookies are somewhat softer than regular cookies, so be careful not to under bake these cookies or they will be very soft. Cool on the pan for 10 minutes and then remove cookies from baking pan and let fully cool on a wire rack. Makes about 2 dozen cookies.

Our Fall Herbal Harvesting workshop was a huge success and so much fun. What an amazing group of people in this class!

It was a great day and even the rain held off until we finished all our harvesting. We made lots of great herbal remedies from the plants we gathered - a cleansing digestive tincture, cold busting cough syrup, a healing infused oil and a soothing vapour balm.

Although we won't be holding another harvesting workshop until the Spring, you still have time to get out yourself and harvest elderberries and rosehips to support your health through the winter months. To find out more about the many uses of elderberries go to our website tiliabotanicals.com and sign up for our newsletter (bottom of our homepage) and you'll receive a free 40 page e-book all about the uses of this fabulous tree!

Smoky skies are once again filling our valley, and unfortunately, with the smoke comes respiratory problems. If you are finding that the smoke is causing you to have a sore throat, cough, tightness in your chest, and even asthma symptoms. We have some great products for you to try, plus if you need something more specific to your symptoms, we are happy to do custom blends to help you during this horrible, smoky time.

Our Resp-Tea is full of soothing lung loving herbs that can ease the symptoms and help strengthen your respiratory system. We also have two wonderful essential oil blends “Just Breathe” and “Baby Breathe” to open airways, and they're safe for both adults and kids. (And they're on sale this month!). In addition, our “Allergy Relief Drops” are proving helpful for relieving sore itchy eyes, dry throat and cough symptoms.

Although we can’t make the smoke go away, we can help you to cope with its effects and to get on enjoying life even during smoky skies. 🙂
