I love your philosophy of living with the land and community living but when it comes to God Jesus is the only way to the one and only God! I pray that you seek Jesus and forgiveness and give your life to God before its to late. You seem to be a very knowledgeable man and I hope the best for the rest of your life. ❤
I just descovered this in a patch on my land. My 3yr old grandaughter was eating the flower as fast as we could pick. 😂😂Making a salve with it and other cold sore fighters, and putting in all my healing salves for gift giving
I just got a few small plants from a guy in Oregon (I am in FL) and it is doing so well right off the bat! I can see I am going to need a second or even third above ground bed and some trellis for it to spread. Save the telomeres! lol
I have been saying the same about beauty for years-it has an evolutionary function! That is in informing us about ecosystem health. We can’t standardize beauty, but it can lead us the way to restoring the land’s natural wholeness, the health of the land.
The chemical that binds with the poison ivy oil to neutralize it is called urushiol. I use a product that includes jewel weed to treat poison ivy, oak, etc. It is called Technu, available in US on the shelf at CVS. I am happy to add that I also got a very bad rash from the tree version that secrets the poison ivy oil in Mexico and it worked wonderfully!!
