My husband was busy to bring this birch some relieve from an ivy which clinched to her and sucked her blood.

I am so happy to have a birch in our garden. The leaves in spring are delicious in salads and you can collect them if you need a help for infected bladder or urinary tract.

In Europe I also collected the sap and will show you in Spring, if possible.

In our little forest we planted my avocados. Hope they doing well there.

While digging a hole for them we found another larva I don’t know.

We have also discovered this lily in our corner.

Christoph was very busy and now all cut trees and other twigs are processed. Here he used our bench as alternative for a … sorry, can’t find the English word for it… ‘saw horse’ (thanks Hana!)

Anyway, it worked well

While my husband was busy with his saw, David was the whole time in our ‘wild corner’ (we call it that way because we leave this corner to the birds and plants without weeding out)

Anyway, he told me he was collecting…

…  Kawakawa fruits. Unfortunately this ones aren’t ripe yet (they turn orange when ripe)

But I am lucky there are still fruits in a height David can’t rich them

If you want to make tea of Kawakawa (which is said to purify the blood), use the leaves which are eaten by bugs because it is said they are higher in medical properties (Very interesting, because you shouldn’t do that with other herbs. Normally you collect the untouched ones because they are stronger and higher in medical properties. Only weak herbs are munched on…)

My little herbalist and his ‘product.’
