But my journey with natural remedies didn't start there...
When I was a teenager, I went tubing with friends on a local lake. Always pushing boundaries, I rode the tube longer than anyone else, determined not to be thrown off. My reward? The tops of my ankles were rubbed raw from friction.
Like most people would, I reached for Neosporin and liberally applied it. The next morning, I woke up to blisters all over the already angry mess. Turns out, I was allergic to Neosporin. I tried Polysporin next. Same reaction. Blisters on top of blisters.
For years, I tried every store-bought and prescription cream without success. They all caused me to break out in blisters.
Then I started studying herbalism. I made my first wound salve and carefully tested it.
No blisters. No burning. Just incredibly soothing relief. And my wounds healed faster than ever before.
That's when I knew I had to share these remedies with others.
Join Me for This Hands-On Workshop and Create 5 Essential Healing Remedies
In this special 3-hour interactive workshop, you'll make these remedies alongside me:
🌿 Healing Wound Salve
Perfect for cuts, scrapes, minor burns, and skin irritations. There's nothing quite like the confidence of treating your child's scraped knee with something you made yourself, knowing it contains only pure, healing ingredients.
🌿 Deep Soothe Herbal Balm
This powerful combination of calendula, chamomile, and yarrow helps reduce inflammation and promote healing. It's our go-to for bruises, sprains, and swelling.
🌿 Joint & Muscle Warming Salve
After a long day working on the homestead—kneeling over garden beds, carrying heavy feed sacks, or standing at the kitchen counter chopping vegetables—this warming rub brings sweet relief to aching muscles and joints.
🌿 Bentonite Clay Treatment
Nothing helps stop bleeding or cool a burn quite like this simple yet powerful remedy.
🌿 Comfrey Compress
This traditional poultice method uses the remarkable healing properties of comfrey (sometimes called “boneset” or “knit-bone” by our ancestors) to support the body's natural healing process for injuries and reduce swelling.

As a pharmacy technician for over 18 years, I saw firsthand how rarely natural alternatives were discussed—even when they might have been more effective and gentler than synthetic options.
Unfortunately, there's not much money to be made when we can grow and make our own medicine, so funding for studies and mainstream education on herbal remedies is practically non-existent.
Over the years, herbalism has faded from everyday life—what was once common knowledge is now nearly a lost art.
This workshop is my way of keeping these valuable traditions alive.
Hi There, I'm Melissa!
AND JUST LIKE YOU, I'M FILLING A LOT OF DIFFERENT ROLES IN A DAY.
I'm a wife, mom and homesteader. I'm also an author, blogger, creator, and a small business owner of several businesses.
During the week (who are we kidding, all of the days) life is busy, from work, livestock, kids activities, keeping up with the laundry and other household chores… let's just say there isn't much sitting around here. The only one who lounges around is the dog.
I don't have time for remedies that don't work or to experiment endlessly hoping to find something effective. But I also don't want my family relying on over-the-counter medicines full of artificial ingredients either. I found a way to make powerful, effective tinctures that support our health naturally, even with my very busy schedule.
