🌿☀️ Summer Adventures, Summer Bugs, and Summer Wellness! ☀️🌿

With summer camps, vacations, pool parties, VBS, sleepovers, and endless outdoor adventures, our kids are sharing a lot more than memories this time of year! 😅 Exposure to new environments and lots of other children can mean an increase in summer colds, sniffles, allergy flare-ups, and general immune challenges.

That's why we keep these three customer favorites stocked year-round:

🍇 Classic Elderberry Syrup
A time-honored herbal staple made with wild-crafted elderberries and supporting herbs. Elderberries are naturally rich in antioxidants and have been traditionally used to support the body's immune response during seasonal challenges. This is a great daily wellness syrup for the whole family.

🍊 Immune Boosting Elderberry Syrup
Our enhanced formula combines elderberries with herbs traditionally used to support respiratory health and overall immune function. This blend is especially popular during camp season, back-to-school prep, travel, and times when families are spending more time around large groups.

🌿 Elderberry Tincture
Perfect for families on the go! This concentrated formula is easy to toss in a purse, backpack, travel bag, or camp gear. A convenient option when you need immune support away from home.

✨ Why consider immune support during summer?
• Kids are exposed to new germs at camps, sports, and activities.
• Travel can place extra stress on the body.
• Seasonal pollen, grass, and environmental allergens are often at their peak.
• Busy schedules can mean less sleep and more opportunities for immune challenges.

While no herbal product can prevent illness, many families choose elderberry as part of their wellness routine to help support a healthy immune system throughout the year.

As always, herbal medicine works best when paired with the basics:
💧 Plenty of water
🥗 Nourishing foods
😴 Adequate sleep
☀️ Fresh air and sunshine

Stop by Folk Medicine Farm Apothecary and let us help you find the right herbal support for your family this summer!

📍 Open Tuesday–Friday 10:30–5:00
📍 Saturday 10:30–2:00

Here’s a quick little tutorial on one of my favorite ways to get people to drink their teas!! This little shaken lemonade hack has been a staple in our home for years!! In fact, this is how I was given herbal teas as a kid!! And who doesn’t love a fresh lemonade during the summer?!

Muscle soreness, joint stiffness, overworked bodies, sports injuries… this is exactly why we created our Arnica & Comfrey Topical Oil. 🌿

This small batch herbal oil is slowly infused using Apricot Oil, Castor Oil, and Jojoba Oil with whole Comfrey Leaf, Comfrey Root, and Arnica flowers to create a deeply nourishing topical blend for hardworking bodies.

✨ Why these herbs?
• Arnica has long been used in folk herbalism to support bruised, sore, and overworked muscles.
• Comfrey is one of the most loved traditional herbs for external support of strains, sprains, bumps, and recovery.
• Castor and Jojoba oils help the blend glide deeply into the skin while Apricot Oil keeps the formula lightweight and easy to absorb.

This blend has become a favorite for:
⚾ Athletes after games and practice
🏋️ Gym recovery and muscle fatigue
🦵 Joint discomfort and stiffness
🚶 Everyday aches from long work days
🌱 General body support after overuse

Massage directly into sore muscles, knees, shoulders, hips, elbows, or anywhere your body needs a little extra care and recovery support.

As always, every batch is handcrafted in small batches right here at Folk Medicine Farm Apothecary using intentionally chosen herbs and slow traditional infusion methods. 💚

For external use only. Avoid use on broken skin.

What a season it’s been!! Thank you Troup County for loving on these kids and helping them along the way!!

Yesterday didn’t end now we hoped but every single citizen in this county should be proud of the hometown team! Our boys battled all season long with a bullseye on their back and every single time they came out in the end on top, heads held high, even during the toughest losses our Tigers held their heads high, moved with grace and respect, and made us so proud!!

While our daughter does not play baseball, she is the varsity head manager for THS Baseball and that means we adopted a team of boys we never knew we’d fall in love with!!

To our Seniors, we love each of you! We cannot wait to watch what God does in your lives! We will be watching from Troup County as you go out and make your mark in this world! And if you need some magnesium butter or tiger salve, just let Mrs. Hannah know and I’ll ship it right to you!! Now go off and be great!!! 💙⚾️💛

To the rest of our team: we love each of you!! Enjoy your summer, hold your head high and be proud of all you accomplished this season!! If you need some sugar cookies or blondes to get you through the summer, stop by the shop and I’ll be glad to make you a batch 😉💛⚾️💙

I have too many photos to choose from but here are just a handful of my favorites from this season!!

Again, thank you Troup County for loving this kids!!! Do it to em’ Troup!!!!
