🌿 Seed Snail Rolls Everything you need to know →
Over the years I’ve grown many herbs, but the truth is there are only a handful that I reach for again and again.
In this video I’m sharing the herbs I prioritize growing in my garden for tea, skincare, natural remedies, and everyday health. These are simple herbs that are easy to grow and incredibly useful in daily life.
We’ll talk about herbs like holy basil, lemon balm, chamomile, calendula, mullein, comfrey, oregano, parsley, and cilantro, along with a few seed-starting tips for getting them going in your own garden.
Many of these herbs cross over into skin care, teas, natural remedies, and cooking, which makes them some of the most practical plants you can grow.
Let me know in the comments which herbs you grow every year!
Thank you for hanging out with me.

Do you have videos on your tinctures? And ow o you make your teas? Do you have to dry the leaves first and if so, for how long?
I am starting my seeds with this new seed snail method this year for the first time. I love herbs as well for teas and medicinal purposes. Glad I found you👍🏽🙏🏽🫖🤓
I would love to learn more about mullein! Do you grow it in your veggie garden? I am looking forward to hearing about how you grow and use it!
I’ve just discovered your channel in the last couple days. I’m in Eugene, OR dog sitting my son’s dog and have some extra time on my hands. We used to live here but now in Oklahoma. Rose Mountain Herbs is located here! I’m inspired and going to go there today and pick up a couple things. I’ll save sales tax and shipping! Yay! I will follow your advice to only try one thing at a time so I’m going to start with oil cleansing and pick up some frankincense. In the past, when I lived in Eugene, I used MRH to buy some essential oils for home cleaning. I haven’t tried it for facial care. I’m 71 and have recently been having reactions to products I’ve used for a long time. My last reaction required me to go to a dermatologist and taking prednisone! I was beet red and in pain! I’m ready for gentle and natural skin care.
I just found your video this morning. I always heard about mullein, but never really tried it every once in awhile a supplement. I live in Florida as soon as the humidity hits(which is pretty much all year round) sinuses inflame and been taking OTC sinus meds for 20 years. I tried mullein tea this past weekend I picked up at a health food store. Sunday bad allergy and sinus day knocked me on my butt. Sunday night a cup of mullein tea before bed and 3-4 cups of hot mullein tea every day this week, I have not had or even thought about taking a sinus or allergy pill. I did also get some Fl honey I put in my smoothie and liquid elderberry, BUT I truly believe it is the mullein tea. Going to test this weekend with no honey or elderberry. If it’s the mullein I have to start growing it. I’ll be watching more of your videos. I love that all you really need is a handful of herbs to change your life. Thank you!
