Elderberry’s / Mid West Farm Life / Carolyn’s Natural Soap

elderberry

It’s time to start to pick and dry the wonderful herbs that grow wild.  When you gather wild plants remember to check the surrounding fields.  If they are row crops more then not they have been sprayed with chemicals, don’t pick there.  Pick your Elderberry flowers and berries with in the next few weeks and enjoy the benefits of Elderberry Juice, jelly, and syrup for this winters cold season. Some of my fondest memories are of my Mother and Dad cleaning Elderberries off the piles of plants my dad brought home from his mining ventures. On the front porch Mom and Dad filled bowls of this precious fruit that Mother would make into the finest jam I’ve ever tasted.
