Fresh batch of Elderberry Syrup on the stove right now! 💛

Yes!!
Let me tell you a little bit about myself and why I rely on elderberry syrup.
Back in 1991 I was diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma. At that time the protocol for Hodgkins (and it may be now but I'm not positive) was to remove the appendix in the spleen, two organs that filter out infection and disease.
I was told back then that it "may compromise my immune system a little bit, not having a spleen". 🤦🏽‍♀️
Back in the 90s, the other protocol for Hodgkin's lymphoma was an ungodly amount of radiation therapy. Yes, it killed my cancer, but it also killed a lot more of my healthy cells. It caused scarring in my lungs, eventually caused breast cancer in 2020, and lastly… And I hope it is lastly… It destroyed my aortic valve causing me to have to have open-heart surgery in 2024.
To say that my immune system is compromised is putting it mildly. When I got sick, I got sick sick! 
I learned about elderberry syrup when I started my herbal medicine education. I had worked in the health field before and saw so many people using prescription drugs, myself included, that I knew I needed to find some alternatives. No I'm not saying don't use your prescription drugs if that's what you need to do. Note that please. 😉
I bought elderberry syrup. Then I started making it. I would take it every day. Then I started selling it.
One spring I was so busy making it for other people that I neglected to keep some aside for myself. Guess what happened!
I ended up in the hospital for almost 10 days with full-blown both lungs full of pneumonia and influenza a. I almost died. Again.
Since then I've been taking a tablespoon of elderberry syrup every single day! If I'm around someone who's sick, or if I start to feel the ick coming on, I quadruple up on my dose daily.
Sure, we still get sick sometimes. But it is nowhere near what I went through before and rest assured, I will not let myself run out of it again!
And I'll do my best to make sure you don't run out of it either.
Making a fresh batch this evening! 😉

For now, I made a new listing. I really hate to shut down my Etsy because I have other people who order other items from me and I also don't really want to run TWO different selling platforms so let's see how this goes while I work out the kinks.
This listing is plain and simple. So, IYKYK. 🤣

I made a new listing so we'll see how this goes with Etsy. lol

This Supplements item is sold by HippieChickHarmony. Ships from La Salle, MI. Listed on Jan 14, 2026

Soooo...
it seems Etsy had a problem with my Elderberry syrup listing and instead of giving me a chance to correct it, they deactivated the listing and will not let me relist.
This is just to reach out to any of you who have found me through Etsy and are following, if you've ordered from Etsy and would like to continue getting elderberry syrup from me, please just reach out here or through my email at
hippiechickherbal@gmail.com
and I will hook you up! 
It really is a shame because that is my top seller and I ship out at least 8–10 bottles weekly. 😔 

I really want to love Etsy but it seems every time I get something good going there, well… Here we are. 😖

Ideas are constantly spinning in my head. This is what's currently on my mind.
Okay ... IF ...
If I offered a "self serve/honor system" kind of set up, something like this (it has to have doors to keep my squirrels out of it 😆) ...
Is that something my local friends would be interested in?
Sort of like a farm stand set up, but closer to the house than the road.
If I set up a payment system in it and just announce what items are in it on what days, (with a video or a photo) would that help you have better access to your HCHH products?
Or would you rather just continue to order it from me and set up the porch pick ups?

❤️ = Yes! Do this!
😂 = Kristi, You're Crazy!
👍🏻 = You're still crazy but do this anyway

P.S. also planning some spring pop-ups, bringing in some vendor friends, and looking for some spring craft/vendor shows to join.
