Hi everyone! Thanks for all the advice. I've noticed there is a lot of
discussion about the smokable herbs. I was given a few recipes for smokable
herbs from my grandmother, who grew up in the Ozarks in Missouri. They were
to be mostly for medicinal uses such as chickweed and chicory for dieting,
blackberry and catnip blend for colds, and my favorite that is for help
quitting smoking, Dandylover. The ingrediedients of wich are kinda a family
secret but are pretty much just 2 plants that grow in most peoples yards. A
favorable side effect of the Dandylover is that it is also an aphrodiesiac
too. But I have recieved valuable advice about the inclusion of these on our
farm, and have decided not to grow them. We will just stick to my grandma's
recipes for teas and spice blends instead.

Thanks,
