Get your app questions ready, get your plant questions ready, I’ll be doing IG & Facebook LIVE’s on March 31st...stay tuned for exact times! .

At this momentous time of turning inward, know that the Earth offers nourishing foods growing in our own backyard as “weeds”. I am offering my app Savage Kitchen for free (ready for immediate download in App Store & Google Play Store), an opportunity when covid19 has people sheltering in place, to learn about edible invasive species that help safeguard our food supply during this crisis and those to come due to climate change. .

Good news, Java Plums are coming! This big beautiful Earth is still turning and we are keen to her cycles. Other good news, Savage Kitchen app is launching this Thursday! .

I’ve been being incredibly challenged by IG lately. Making lots of videos, but just can’t seem to load them properly here over the last week. Am blowing up my Facebook until an IG fairy swoops in to help, so check in there if you wanna see videos on wild foods and medicines that are oh so beneficial at this time. Sending much love to you all.

MAUI :: we have lots of elder leaf (Sambucus mexicana), spanish needles (Bidens pilosa), and japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) available right now. I think all of these are a very important pieces in preventing covid-19, and to be used during active infection. Where are the medicine makers? We need lots of this stuff - are you well, know how to ID these plants, like to organize? I’m slammed with trying to get app launched and feel that’s my work right now, but these medicines are really needed at this time. Getting people ginger, turmeric, fresh eucalyptus leaves for herbal steams, uhaloa, usnea ...aaah, I could go on and on. I have a lot of 1oz dropper bottles for tinctures, we’d need to get alcohol, and people willing to follow strict sanitation protocols, delivery or organized pickups in open-air environments with masks and gloves. Anyone game to coordinate?

Today I was blessed on the Equinox to find Job’s Tears in the perfect stage for making a shield of protection from this virus. Every seed I picked felt like a treasure, a currency, a gift of abundance. I also love drinking the leaves of this plant as a tea.
.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine the Jobs Tears (Coix lachryma-jobi ) grain clears dampness in the system. TCM practitioners out of China are classifying CoVid-19 infection as cool and damp. Thanks to herbalist @kamimcbride for pointing this out and stressing the importance of eating warm foods and keeping the body moving.
