Who says your medicine can't taste good too? I have allergies, Lots of allergies, which sucks cuz sometimes it can make life absolutely miserable. So lately I've been working on an herbal tea mix to help with them because I don't want to be stuck on pharmaceuticals the rest of my life with risk of any one of the dozens of permanent issues that can come along with those. The tea itself surprisingly doesn't taste to bad for what it is, and herbal tea with mushrooms in it, but I had a thought this morning, what about coffee? So I took a scoop of my current favorite coffee flavor, cinnamon dulce, and added it to my pour over filter along with my herbal mix for allergies and brewed away. I poured it over ice (because I love iced coffee not matter what time of year), added some pumpkin pie creamer (yes I am a pumpkin spice sucker) and it tasted really good. Now I'm still working on tweaking this recipe but as of right now it has the following in it: Stinging nettle Broadleaf plantain Rieshi mushroom Chaga mushroom (which is really good in coffee on its own, I even have a chaga hot cocoa mix) Anise seed Astragalus Feverfew Mullein Rose hips I wanted this mix to be more than just allergies since I also have asthma as well, So this has a good amount of lung health herbs as well. I will have this on my shop as well as soon as the final recipe is made for those of you who don't have access to all the herbs mentioned or just cant be bothered ( I get it, life is chaotic 99% of the time) #mushrooms #foraging #plantmedicine #coffee #tea #homesteading #gardening #garden #Homestead #homesteadlife #apothecary #herbs #natural #herbalism #herbalist #herbalmedicine https://www.instagram.com/p/ChxPzQngqKO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Pumpkin & Ginger Jam tastes more like marmalade than jam due to the crystallised ginger and lemon but there is also the subtle sweetness of pumpkin shining through. https://www.fabfood4all.co.uk/pumpkin-ginger-jam-video-tutorial/ #pumpkin #pumpkinjam #ginger #jamrecipes #homemadejam #autumnjam #falljam #pumpkinrecipe #pumpkinrecipes #jammakingtime #jamseason #jammaking #jamrecipeshare #jamandpreserves #canningseason #canningandpreserving #homesteading #homesteadlife #preservetheharvest #artisanjam #beautifulfood #thefeedfeed https://www.instagram.com/p/CiU4ionqeum/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Welcome to another episode of Backroads Homesteading! This week, we've had a busy schedule filled with various projects around the homestead. From setting up a new chicken coop to smoking our first ham and tackling some home improvement tasks, it's been an eventful week.
Echo and Walter had us up at 6:30am howling. Echo freaking LOVES to howl. Any excuse. No excuse. I swear my wolf killer is part wolf herself. Well, since the sled is out of commission we’re back to the 2km hike to the truck in the mornings and home after work for now… and of course the first morning we were following these suckers nearly the entire way. Never a dull moment. #wolf #wildlife #animaltracks #tracking #winter #yukon #yukonterritory #dawsoncity #adventure #homesteadlife #livingthedream (at Dawson, Yukon Territory) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpRoyHEOJx3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
It's been a wild ride this year. Y'all have made it a good amount better. Thank you for letting me share our journey with you.
Here’s to another year of abundance to come.
