Sorry. I didn’t realize a little three letter word got left off there. I have gone into the post and fixed it. It should have said calf HUT. It is a small shelter, that dairy farmers use to put their bottle fed calves in, so they can get their cows back into milk production.
Yes. You are so right, Mini! I was thrilled to learn what I had found!! Wild Bergamont aka Monarda fistulosa is also an excellent topical antibiotic and anti-fungal, due to the Eugenol in it - very similar to oregano. Brewed as a tea, mixed with raw honey (after the tea cools a bit) is great for a sore throat. Breathing steam from the same tea helps to loosen stopped up sinuses, as well. The list of benefits is long . . .Isn't the wild variety used in herbal meds? Appears to be m.fistulosa -- according to my book -- ease colic & flatulence, reduce fevers. ???
Nice find
