In this video, I share how our permaculture swales have resulted in a variety of pioneer herbs that I use to make fragrant herb teas. Pioneer herbs are the first plants to colonize a disturbed area, and they often have medicinal and edible properties. Our swales are dug across a slope to slow down rainwater and allow it to infiltrate the soil. This creates a moist environment that is perfect for pioneer herbs to appear.
One of the pioneer herbs that are growing in our swales is ANISILLO (Tagetes filifolia). It is a medicinal plant that has been used for centuries to treat a variety of ailments, including indigestion, stomach cramps, and respiratory problems. It is also a popular culinary herb, and its leaves and flowers can be used to add flavor to soups, stews, and other dishes.
In the video, I show you how to harvest and prepare ANISILLO to make a fragrant herb tea.
Permaculture principles help to create a more sustainable and resilient food system.
I hope you enjoy this video and that it inspires you to start your own permaculture swales!
