Made a quick "living" wreath with herbs from the garden. Pick as you need them and it looks cute too! This has Rosemary, Thyme, and Oregano. I would recommend laying it flat while it dries for a few days and then hanging it up so the herbs stay in place.

I just tied it with h**p because that's what I had available and then when we use all the herbs I'll still have the wreath to decorate with dried flowers.

Do your hands get dry, cracked and bleeding in the winter? Please give our Whipped Tallow Balms a try! We have five different blends, and the only difference is the essential oil scent so you can find your perfect one. I guarantee it will help.

The dry cold air, combined with extra hand washing to keep germs at bay this time of year can be so hard on our hands. I have nurses that swear by our stuff in the hospital when they're washing their hands 15-20 times a shift.

Our balms are lightweight but super absorbent, so your body soaks it up, and a little goes a long way. I promise, your hands will thank you!

Harvesting luffa (or loofah) is so easy when it dries on the vine!
We wash and reuse our loofah pieces many times until it's falling apart and then just throw it in the compost when we're done!

If a frost is coming and you must harvest them green, try sitting them in a warm sunny spot for a few days to harden the outside skin. Or cooking at a low temp. before you peel.

When you peel the skin, you'll have to run the luffas under water to wash away the goo and then hang them to dry so they don't mold. Does anyone have a foolproof method of peeling these when green? I'd love to hear it!

Another tip is always starting my luffa seeds with my other summer veggies so I get a head start on the season and can harvest mine dry.

My toddler twins always find me when I try to sneak away. And if they aren't changing 700 times into different princess outfits, then they're in their un**es. No in between at home.🤷🏼

Why use our tallow balms for skincare?

🌱 Our beef tallow is 100% locally sourced from . The quality is top notch and I know Jared's regenerative farm practices align with our values. And the suet used helps to utilize every part of the cow, which is the way it should be. Grass fed beef tallow is so similar to our own skin structure that it absorbs easily and is packed with fatty acids that support healthy skin.

🌱 Our tallow balms also contain cold pressed, calendula infused jojoba oil. About 50% of the calendula comes from our home garden, and the other half is sourced locally from . Calendula is a powerful but gentle flower that when dried soothes irritation and inflammation, provides antioxidant protection, and has been used for centuries in wound healing.

🌱No artificial fillers, colors, preservatives, or fragrances. Only essential oils.

We put a "made on" date on all our products. Because they are truly all natural. We guarantee at least a six month quality, but if it looks and smells okay, feel free to use it way past that date. We have some that are well over a year old we're using at our home and it's still as good as the day it was made. The shelf life is extended by our double purification processes and keeping it in a cool, dry place.

Skincare is never a one size fits all, but I can't tell you the number of customers that write to me about how our products have helped improve their skin. Whether it's their face, dry winter hands, or chronic skin conditions, it's a versatile powerhouse. Quality skincare doesn't have to come with a ton of ingredients.

Don't forget to harvest some seeds to save you $ for next year!

These are Celosia seeds. Some plants have extra steps or considerations when you save their seeds, especially if you want to keep exact varieties, but these are easy!
