Welcome to the secret garden!! Exploring Margaret River's organic garden for the first time!!.
A little bit of a dream. Everywhere I go I like to explore the best garden's. I never knew about this. Coincidentally, I mentioned going to visit the garden whilst at a winery in Margs with a friend, and just after picked up a book on the coffee table at the winery.
It was all about the organic garden. How it was established back in the 80s and used as a permaculture project.
I wish I had time to read it but visiting it was breathtaking.

Gotu Kola tincture is a powerful medicine for the circulatory system, kidneys, adrenals and brain.

It is everywhere in Perth and if you knownwhere to find it, you can harvest it safely and make your own.

As I always say, free medicine is the best medicine!

Have you ever tried it fresh or dried??

Oh so I do need more indoor plants, not a hepa filter ;)

Yeahhh, nahhh.
These mulberry leaves do not match matcha 🍵
As a matcha, unless it was super finely powdered like matcha, we cannot replicate it.
I can see a slight comparison with its grassy, fresh green taste. But personally, I would use it in a smoothie, or soup.
As a soup it would give a lovely grassy flavour, but of course you may lose some benefits of the minerals by heating.

Either way, free medicine is the best medicine.

Gotu kola or Centella Asiatica is a famous herb and it grows right here in Perth.
It's common to find near natural water sources as a ground cover.
Always be aware of where you harvest. Many local councils spray near waterways with pesticides or chemicals. Do not harvest these.

Ways to identify it:

Pick a leaf and take a picture. Google isn't always correct.

Inspect the leaf texture: matte and hairless is what we want.
Shape: kidney shaped, wider than taller.
Colour :bright to darker green
Smell: when crushed like parsley or carrot tops
Taste: herbaceous, green, fresh, slightly bitter
Leaf margins: wavy around the majority with sharp teeth like edges near stem.
Stem: green to dark purple or brown. Round. Attaches at the v of the leaf and not the centre of the leaf.
Flowers: tiny pink, red or white flowers

Lookalikes:
Marsh Pennywort
Native violet
Kidneyweed

Stay tuned for the actual beverage, I am intrigued.
Of course this is a nutritional food to be used as such and not medication or used instead of important medications recommended by your GP.
Have you ever tried Mulberry leaf tea?

There are 3 species of the Mulberry, white, black and red.
The white has been studied the most for it profound antioxidant levels and constituents which moderate and slow carbohydrate metabolism.

Black mulberry has very similar effects and is apparently higher in antioxidants than the white.

If you have a mulberry tree in your local area, why not try it??

If you saw my aloe vera post, I finally got around to posting the process of making the gummies.
Life's been busy, or maybe I was just too traumatised...
My goal was to make some yummy vegan gummies for my gut, including fresh aloe vera pulp, and combining it with licorice and mint tea, and thickening with agar agar.
Soooo, that was disgusting. I then tried to fix the taste by adding pomegranate juice and prebiome fibre.
It didn't work. I don't want to talk about it. Will I ever try again? Yes, but to be honest, I'm not sure aloe vera in a gummy was ever a good idea.
