We just wrapped up our final major craft fair of the 2024 Fall and Christmas craft fair season! We were at Rustic Reel's Reel Christmas Market which ran for two days on Saturday and Sunday, and being as it was fully outdoors under tents for both days, we dressed for cold temperatures and brought a bag of additional "keep warm" methods that we didn't end up using. Even more surprising was a visit by a honey bee to our table! It landed on one of our $10 signs and began grooming itself. Pondo and Rosa got to explore the table a bit more, showing up in two locations over the two-day event. They got very brave on Sunday and went to visit with the octopus guarding the mini-trunk's vials of wild herbs and business cards. We made an amazing number of sales this weekend!
We have one more tiny appearance at the Schubert Centre's Christmas Luncheon this Thursday, offering a bit of market ambience for those who attend. We'll be there from 11am to 2:30pm if you want to catch us in person one last time before the New Year.

Another medicine shortage finally made mainstream news in recent days here in Canada, and it has to do with a common epilepsy drug.
Many herbs are listed to assist with epilepsy due to their ability to calm the nervous system, calm muscle spasms, calm stress, anxiety and panic attacks, and aid in rest or sleep.
Reliance on medication alone is often what causes the panic around these chronic but intermittent conditions when the medication is no longer available. Many foods, herbs and spices have nutritional and medicinal qualities that can aid the epilepsy sufferer, provided they are adjusting their daily nutritional intake to address their condition.

While mainstream medical fully derides the idea that there might be herbal answers to cancer, the studies exist! I link to various studies on this subject in the following articles, one way or another and all related to the use of herbal and wholefood medicine. Cancer research has uncovered many herbal remedies that don't see the light of day in mainstream medical circles.

A well-meaning conservative politician that I follow across the country from me, finished off her latest mini-rant by asking if Trudeau will be ruining my Christmas. My immediate thought was, "No!". Christmas in our house isn't tight because of government idiocy, but instead because of lost jobs earlier in the fall.
There's no reason to wait for government to force shippers back to work. Go local and put Christmas dinner on the table of a local small delivery driver instead.
Perhaps, after the concerted effort the string pullers went to great lengths to enforce in lockstep to make as many people as unhealthy or dead as possible over the past 5 years, the best gift that could be placed around hearths, in socks on trees or under them, would be the gift of natural health!
No, Trudeau isn't making our own Christmas difficult this year, but he is for others out there! Don't let him ruin yours either by shifting your focus as to what you'll buy from who, and even why you're buying it. Christmas isn't about what we buy. Gift giving was instituted at Christmas as a way to live out two things: The Gift of Salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord, and the gifts the wisemen gave Him when was 2 years old in Bethlehem after they spotted His star the night of His birth. We give gifts to each other in remembrance of these two historical and very present facts.
If the person you are giving your gift to is across the region and won't be coming for Christmas, offer to pay someone to drive it across town for you. Maybe if you know a postal worker out of work, offer to pay them to do a private run for you. Maybe it will prevent another death this Christmas.

Well, Pondo and Rosa, our two tiny mascots this season, were seen in two different locations at our craft fair booths this weekend.
We are having some very good conversations with people, and the occasional amazing plug for the locally-foraged teas that we sell. A lady came by who had bought some tea from us last spring while her daughter was battling cancer, and gave the teas to her daughter. Her daughter is now cancer-free, and drank our teas throughout her treatment ordeal. The mother actually told another customer right in front of us today, "I'm not saying the teas dealt with the cancer, but they helped". It is now well-known that many foods, including red meat, have anti-cancer properties, some so powerful they can be drunk as a mere tea and do a better job than some medications out there! I wrote about this in my "3 drugs that break the bank" series. So to hear this feedback at a craft fair was amazing!
I ran into a few fellow believers who agree that a Biblical understanding of practical uses of God's creation out in the wild is necessary and needed in today's world, as it may be what we have to turn to in the future. To that note, our household and others are turning to it now, nevermind in the future!
Selling wildcrafted teas is always an exercise in education for many who are completely unaware of what God has growing out there and how they can use it for health and nutrition. Sales were good this weekend! We have three more craft fairs before Christmas, and I am pencilling in dates in 2025 already, with a wellness fair in April already spoken for with a deposit on our booth. Other spring dates are being pencilled in as well between Kelowna and Vernon.
Here's a few pics of our booth, and Pondo and Rosa as well.
