Last week, we had the privilege of being invited to an open house at the West family's herb farm, Homestead Blessings. What a treat! Mrs. West gave us a tour of her gardens, sharing information about each herb. She and her 4 daughters not only grow herbs, make herbal salves, and other lovely products; they also sing old-time Gospel hymns and play a myriad of folk instruments. We left with several herbs to plant in Tricia Ann's herb garden and infused with enthusiasm about learning to use a few of these plants. We're especially excited about our burdock plant that can be beneficial in treating burns.
