In mid- September a close friend and I wandered out in the wilds around Cle Elum on the hunt for Elderberries. Elderberries are not only immune boosting and antiviral but they also help with a whole slew of other ailments. These include: blood pressure, cholesterol, chronic fatigue, and nerve pain to name a few. They are high in vitamins A, B6, C, iron, potassium, antioxidants, quercetin, and polyphenols. Boy did we hit the motherload!! Good thing I made room in the freezer, they are so much easier to de-stem once frozen.

Just made some fermented honey garlic for the first time in preparation for cold/flu season. I can't wait to see how it turns out!! Here's the link to the recipe I used. Happy medicine making!
