β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € 🌾🌾MILKY OATS!!! 🌾🌾 (I’m maybe a little too excited) β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € Yup, oats...harvested at the β€œmilky” stage these gems are legit β€œnerve food” for those of us who tend to get stuck in our heads a bit too often. 😬 🀯 β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € I blended them up in high proof vodka 🍸and they will sit for at least 6 weeks before straining. DM me if you want to be on the list for some of this magic... I may hog most of it for myself. β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € I’m also drying a batch, which will be less intense medicinally but extremely nutrient rich when added to tea. 🍡 β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € Got these from @fireweed_farm (πŸ™πŸ½) but will try my hand at growing them on the farm next year.🀞🏽 . . . . #cerealneverlookedsogood #relaxyourself #herbnerd #milkyoats #nervine #witchythings #healingherbs #avenasativa
