Elderberries are at their best and ripe for picking just now. If you want to make the best remedy and preventative for colds & flu that I know then here is the recipe 💜 Pick around 2 kilos of ripe elderberries on a dry, sunny day Gently wash and drain then strip the berries off the stalks with the back of a fork. Disguard any green ones or they will give you stomach cramps. Put in a heavy saucepan with enough water to cover the berries, bring to the boil and simmer until they are soft, giving them a good squashing with a spoon every now and then. Drain through a sieve to remove any pips which taste bitter. Add fluid back to the pan and for every 600ml of liquid add 350g of sugar, you can add less and just top up with honey at the point of serving. At this point there are a few options of adding other ingredients. I always add a large chunk of root ginger, a few cloves, squeeze of lemon juice and some rind, cardamon pods, few blackberries and the important one of star anise which contains thymol and is a component in the drug Tamiflu. Keep on a rolling boil for 10 minutes which will dissolve the sugar and bring out the flavour and properties of the other ingredients. Leave to cool and then remove the ginger etc with a slotted spoon. Pour into ice cube trays or small pots and freeze for later use. Add a couple of cubes to boiling water with local honey for a hot toddy or melt over icecream (very good for a sore throat 😉) At the first signs of cold or flu I make a strong dilution and add a couple of drops of echinacea tincture to it which almost always stops the cold in its tracks.
The Elderberries are almost ready to pick, dont forget to make your cold and flu remedies with them while they are still around. 💜 #hedgerowhounds #naturesbounty #natureslarder #englishhedgerows #englishcountryside
We are on the move, so if you have recently placed an order it may take a few days longer than usual until everything is set up again. Thank you for your patience 💚🧡💛💙

Of all the places it could grow this Milk Thistle has chosen the top of the muck heap as home. You can see how it got its name as it looks like milk is flowing down the veins of the leaves. An excellent herb to support the liver. #hedgerowhounds #englishhedgerows #natureknowsbest #herbsfordogs #herbalremedies

A much cooler morning meant we could walk further into the woodland and along the stream where you can see the frothy white flower heads of Meadowsweet growing. #hedgerowhounds #nature #herbs #natureslarder #englishhedgerows #englishpastures #kitchengarden
