S3: E6 Why I Always Keep Comfrey Around
About this episode
In this episode, Amber discusses the uses and benefits of comfrey, sharing personal stories and practical applications.
Comfrey is one of my favorite herbs—and one that has been part of my family’s natural wellness journey for years. In this episode, I share how I first learned about comfrey, why it earned the nickname “knit bone,” some of the controversy surrounding its use, and the many ways I’ve used it over the years. We’ll talk about homemade salves, herbal traditions, garden uses, animal feed, and a few personal stories of how comfrey has shown up in our home. I’ll also share the difference between common comfrey and Russian comfrey, plus my simple process for making comfrey-infused salve. Whether you’re new to herbs or already growing comfrey in your garden, I hope this episode encourages you to learn more about one of nature’s most versatile plants. As always, do your own research, trust your intuition, and remember—you don’t have to do everything perfectly to live a meaningful life.
