I like to hear what Dr. Jones has to say. He is easy to understand, and he gets to the point quickly. Thanks!
i am looking forward to learn a lot from this,
I always love listening to Dr. Jones.
So fun to watch! Keep them coming.
Wow! I learned a few things in 4 short minutes. I’m excited to learn more in the summit, with a note book!
Excellent information from Doc Jones — as usual! I love learning from this man! Shepherds Purse, Yarrow & Cayenne… tinctured, dried, or dried/powdered. I have read that the colorful new varieties of yarrow are not as potent as the original white. Can anyone confirm that? At any rate, I’m trying to get yarrow growing in my garden (I already grow cayenne). I guess I need to source Shepherds Purse as well! Thank you, Doc!
