    Hello Katerina,

    Thank you for providing those thoughtful and helpful links to businesses specializing in herbal combinations and blends. This information is particularly valuable for those who may not have the resources or ability to prepare their own tinctures or other remedies after completion of the assessment and plan of care.

    I’m not aware of any such company in Canada and will look and see what I can find to share with my fellow Canadians.

    Cheers and have a lovely evening .

    It’s so nice to meet you. Wow that is a great question. One of the first flowers that I remember are roses and their beautiful smell. The poppy is also one I recall. My Gram used the poppies for baking traditional Ukrainian sweets. Another, plant I that recall was mustard and it’s pretty yellow flowers. One year I had a terrible cough and I had a couple of mustard packs to improve my breathing. We had a little orchard with mostly plums and apples. We kept bees in the orchard and later moved them to grow them in the flax field, although flax is a self pollinator the bees are is healthy for the flax plant and the honey tastes amazing. We also had buckwheat honey at one . We grew up as participants on the farm and in the garden. I fondly remember picking flowers for the house. We used as much of the plant as possible even dandilions. Nothing went to waste.

    I’d love to hear some of your early memories of plants and flowers?

    Thank you for your kind welcome.
