Stinging nettle, a powerhouse of an herb. I love to recommend this herb to basically anyone. It's a wonderful whole food mineral supplement with so many benefits and ways to prepare it!

Nettle (Urtica dioica) has a wide range of potential health benefits, including:

1. **Nutrient-Rich**: High in vitamins A, C, K, and several B vitamins, as well as minerals like iron, calcium, magnesium and potassium.
2. **Anti-Inflammatory**: Contains compounds that may help reduce inflammation, beneficial for conditions like arthritis.
3. **Allergy Relief**: May help alleviate symptoms of hay fever and seasonal allergies.
4. **Prostate Health**: Some studies suggest nettle root extract can help with symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
5. **Blood Sugar Control**: May help lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity.
6. **Blood Pressure Regulation**: Contains compounds that may help lower blood pressure.
7. **Skin Health**: Used in topical preparations to treat eczema, acne, and other skin conditions.
8. **Digestive Health**: Can aid in digestion and relieve constipation.
9. **Hair Health**: Promotes hair growth and can be used to treat dandruff when applied topically.
10. **Bone Health**: Rich in calcium and magnesium, which are essential for maintaining strong bones.

Enjoy as a tea, tincture, capsule, or in soups, pestos and more!

Growing this herb is also a breeze I just recommend it in a pot and invest in long gloves. Some enjoy the sting - I am not one of those people 😂😂

It might not be a huge accomplishment for all, but this time last year we were only at 50 so this is pretty cool 😎

Bread days have quickly become my favorite day! A few of these are available, dm me or text (949)599-6320 to place an order.

Is there any interest in chocolate walnut loaves? This cooler weather is making me crave some thing sweet!

Toast was always a comfort food for me. When I was recommended to go gluten free to manage my pain 10 years ago I made the switch to gluten free bread and … it just didn’t hit the same.

Over the years I found options that tasted better but they always contained inflammatory vegetable oils.

As my chronic pain lifted I began to loosen my reigns on eating ‘perfectly’ (although I firmly believe there’s no such thing as a perfect diet but that’s a whole other post) I started to implement toast back into my life- taking the advice I often give to my nutrition clients that sometimes foods serve other purposes than to nourish and heal. Sometimes it fuels joy and comfort and love and nostalgia.

But as my son started to grow and eat solids and had a preference for crunchy foods he’d steal my toast and I wanted better for him. So I started to delve back into making my own bread and here we are, expanding that nourishment past ourselves and into the community.

While we still don’t strive for perfection in our house, we made this swap so we could feel good continuing to indulge in one of our favorite foods as a family regularly and feel good about it. It being veggie oil free and fermented makes it so much easier to digest and better for us!

Enjoy a few moments of morning toast asmr and as always message or text me with your questions or order requests. ❤️🥖❤️🥖

The mornings are feeling cooler and cozier already, starting a morning baking bread always feels grounding but it feels even moreso as autumn approaches.

Enjoy a peaceful moment of my morning!

Two bread babies are ready to go to a new home today. $15 a piece , $5 local delivery to Veneta/Elmira area or free local pickup.

Dm me to place an order, I need a few days to bake a boule fresh for you.

Only taking local GF sourdough boule orders at this time. Do to the nature of gluten free baking and needing multiple different flours for each recipe I quickly discovered that I don’t have the space to safely store all the different ingredients to offer additional items at this time (I have dreams of building a domestic kitchen in the future but that’s a ways off!) . I can also sell you a gf starter if you’re interested in making your own bread.

Let me know if you have any questions!
