I've been busy making goods for Christmas! If you'd like to purchase any bundles for your loved ones, please think of supporting my little business. β€οΈπππβοΈπΏπ πβ€οΈ Christmas bundles start at $15. You can let me know on messenger what your price range is and I can give you options or you can let me know what you'd like and we can go from there. If you see single items you'd like, let me know! Homemade soaps, bath teas, magnesium bath soaks, magnesium sprays, salves, body butters, CBD salves, lip balms, and remineralizing tooth powders. *Local pick-up is available; will politely ask for payment up front (via PayPal, Venmo, or Zelle), so there are no holds that will be unaccounted for. Bundles will be placed in gift bags ready to gift for a loved one...or for yourself. π *Shipping is available for Christmas bundles that will entail shipping fees; I can ship directly to you or make the bundle presentable and ready to ship to your recipient's address. Tracking information will be provided. βΊοΈ
Does anyone want Elderberry syrup? I can make a batch this week if anyone is interested in purchasing any! Please shoot me a message, so I can get a list in the works. Prices are still the same; $15 for eight ounce and $30 for 16 ounce. Ingredients are also still the same; sometimes the ingredients are a little modified based on what I have in the kitchen. π My syrup includes local plants and berries harvested near Verdi, NV. *Wild harvested Elderberries (don't have much left after making a stock for my family for this upcoming winter, but will use a reliable source for organic or wild harvested elderberries when I run out.) *Wild harvest Wlderflowers *Wild Harvested Rosehips *Local/Raw Honey from Hidden Valley, NV. The rest of the ingredients are organic and of top quality (due to my picky-ness π ). We can do a meetup in town, you may pick up from my home in Sparks (near Alice Smith Elementary School) or I can schedule a day to do drop offs, but do ask for a drop off fee (up to you what that may be) to help compensate for my time and gas. β½οΈ
I'm so sorry for any inconveniences, but I will be restocking my elderberry syrup at Earthe Energe this upcoming Tuesday! I dislike for the days long delay, but I ran out out supplies and am waiting for jars to get shipped. I will be making my last batch of syrup with locally sourced elderberries with this upcoming batch! Future batches will be made with organic, dried elderberries sourced elsewhere. I'm running low on the berries sourced from Verdi, NV, and I also need to ensure I have some available for my little family for this upcoming Winter and Spring. Thank y'all for your continued support. I know I have put my business on the back burner these days, but life as a homeschooling Mom is nonstop! I am putting some time aside to make sure I will have some Christmas gift sets available for purchase in the next week. ππ
This weather makes me in a beeswax candle making mood. ππ― I love how many changes beeswax goes through when you make candles with it. The final color of these candles will become a distinct yellow. As always, local/raw beeswax is being used for these candles. The aroma of local/raw beeswax is so calming and inviting. π
My absolute favorite time is when the local, wild elderberries are getting ready to be ripe! I was blessed to be able to pick enough ripened elderberries to make a small batch of syrup. π I should be able to harvest more berries next week as many berries weren't staining my hands when I did the ole trusty test to see if they are ripe and ready for me to use. The taste of syrup with freshly picked, locally harvested ingredients makes such a HUGE difference to me, and I also feel it's a lot more medicinal as I was able to pick elderberries, elderflowers, rose hips, and indian tea with my own two hands.
So. Many. Elderflowers! I washed them off and basically dehydrated them in the sun. Instead of doing the typical solar infusion method, I am doing the stovetop infusion method as it cuts back time from four to six weeks to only one hour. I can't wait to make medicines and goods with this! I will make salves, body butters, and soaps from scratch (for the first time) with these wild harvested elderflowers from Verdi, Nevada soaked in extra virgin, organic olive oil. Can't wait! π
