Bee Sting

Open Field Farm September 12, 2023

By Abby

While in the garden the other day, I got two bee stings on my ankle. Ouch! We have herbal remedies nearby. I quickly chewed up some plantain leaf and yarrow leaf. I secured the poultice to my ankle with a bandage, and no more sting! They were itchy the next day, but no pain at all.

I highly recommend knowing where these plants live in the garden and perennials, in case you get stung while frolicking at the farm!

Tomato salad with Thai basil

Sliced tomatoes
Green beans, blanched and chopped
Chopped cucumber

First put the tomatoes and cucumber in a colander, and put the colander in a large bowl. Salt generously to sweat the water- drain after 10 mins. Add green beans. The veggies still have a lot of water so the dressing can be thick.

Dressing:
Grated ginger
Splash of Soy sauce
Splash of Fish sauce
Sweetener of choice
One chopped hot chili 

Add Thai basil leaf and/or flower, and chopped peanuts
