The Buck Moon illuminates our path as we gather under its full, radiant glow to celebrate renewal and fresh beginnings. This celestial event, partnered with Capricorn's steadfast energy, creates the perfect atmosphere for setting intentions and embracing transformation. We dive deep into personal moon rituals – from creating crystal-charged water that later nourishes our families and gardens, to simply taking a moment to bathe in moonlight and reconnect with natural rhythms.

A special excitement fills the air as ten acres of hemp are being planted at this very moment, timed perfectly with the full moon's fertility power. The custom equipment specifically retrofitted for these tiny seeds represents innovation meeting tradition – a cornerstone of sustainable agriculture. We share our vision for this harvest becoming healing plant medicine, and discuss our newly launched petition for cannabis legalization that emerged from an AI-assisted rewrite of the Declaration of Independence.

The garden has come alive with our recent planting day, where we incorporated the indigenous Three Sisters method – interplanting corn, beans, and squash to create a natural, symbiotic growing system. We've discovered the delicacy of squash blossoms along the way, learning to identify male versus female flowers and their culinary potential. Today's featured herb, mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris), captivates us with its multiple healing pathways – opening third eye awareness for lucid dreaming, supporting menstrual health, and serving as a digestive ally.

Join our High Vibe Tribe at upcoming events including the Homegrown Music Festival where we'll host interactive sound healing experiences with crystal bowls and more! As we embrace our mantra "Choose your own adventure, but surrender to the divine plan," we invite you to align with the moon's energy and manifest your own beautiful future. What seeds are you planting under this powerful Buck Moon?

A casual summer conversation amid a heat wave suddenly transforms into a powerful testament to motherhood and resilience when tragedy strikes during our recording. What begins as lighthearted banter about mint tea, garden harvests, and camping adventures quickly pivots when Nixon suffers a severe injury to his finger after it becomes trapped in a four-wheeler winch.

The emotional journey that follows takes us through emergency responses, hospital visits, and a remarkable surgery that saves his finger's functionality. Through tears and fears, we witness extraordinary strength from this young boy who faces pain with surprising composure. His courage becomes our anchor as we navigate not just the initial trauma, but unexpected complications including medication reactions and a severe case of poison ivy that follows.

Yet amidst these challenges, life's beauty persists. Our camping trip at Plymouth Rock continues, filled with swimming, s'mores by the fire, and the magical sight of nearly 200 decorated golf carts gathering for live music under the stars. The puppies make new friends, children experience the freedom of summer days, and we learn valuable lessons about travel trailer management from kind strangers who become instant mentors.

This episode stands as a powerful reminder that life's greatest challenges often reveal unexpected gifts. From witnessing the immediate response of compassionate first responders to experiencing the deep connection of community support, we discover that even in our most vulnerable moments, we are never truly alone. As Independence Day approaches, we reflect on freedom, resilience, and the beauty of surrendering to life's unpredictability while advocating for the liberation of cannabis as a healing alternative.

What will you discover when faced with your own unexpected challenges? How might you find "treasures in the trial" when life doesn't follow your carefully crafted plans? Join us for this emotional, authentic conversation about motherhood, healing, and finding joy even when the path forward isn't clear.

The summer sun beats down on the farm as we celebrate a major milestone – the launch of Sunshine Bubbles Podcast after two years of dreaming and planning! We're thrilled to finally share our authentic best-friend conversations with our High Vibe Tribe across all major podcast platforms including Apple, Spotify, and Audible.

Life on the farm during these dog days of summer brings both joy and challenges. We're watching with amusement and patience as our older dog Ruby slowly warms up to puppy Ripley, celebrating small moments of connection between them at the farmer's market beach area. Managing six energetic children while balancing farm work requires creativity and intention – like our attempt at creating a magical experience at the "Mermaid Lagoon" that quickly turned into a mosquito-driven retreat! The sweet victory came when we watched the children independently apply our homemade balm to their bites without complaint, showing how they've embraced our natural lifestyle.

Our farming adventures continue with innovative container gardening for onions and an exciting mushroom cultivation project using six varieties of oyster mushrooms. We're partnering with Field and Forest, a local Wisconsin company, to expand our knowledge of the fascinating fungal kingdom. The process involves soaking straw in hydrated lime, layering it with spawn, and waiting for the magic of mycelium to produce nutrient-dense mushrooms that are "anti-everything" superfoods. Throughout all these experiences – from siesta naps in the grass to drilling drainage holes with an eager five-year-old – we're learning to embrace both the work and wonder of farm life. Subscribe to our High Vibe Tribe through our website at dnahempllc.com to join us on this journey of growth, connection, and sustainable living!

The milestone tenth episode of Sunshine and Bubbles' High Vibe Tribe podcast feels like pure summer magic as we celebrate the season while sharing wisdom from our hemp farm. Between wrangling children on summer break and tending to our newly planted chakra garden beds, we're finding moments of pure joy in the simple things – including introducing our newest family member, puppy Ripley!

This episode centers on a beautiful concept we call "spiritual bartering" – the reciprocal exchange of energy that happens when you share your unique gifts with the world. As we reference scripture about using different gifts according to individual grace, we explore how identifying what makes you feel most alive creates an infinity loop of abundance that extends beyond human interaction to include exchanges with the earth itself.

Our plant ally spotlight features wild roses (Rosa Multiflora) currently blooming throughout our farm. These delicate yet thorny beauties offer medicinal benefits including heart-opening properties, improved digestion, and anti-inflammatory effects. We share how to harvest and use rose petals in teas, salads, and hydrosols, plus the vitamin-rich benefits of rose hips that form after blooming.

Farm updates include our thriving hemp plants, particularly the autoflowers already budding just 30 days into their 60-day growth cycle. We're excited about incorporating these beautiful flowers into bouquets at upcoming farmer's markets and festivals. Speaking of which – catch us at Thiensville Farmer's Market on Tuesdays (9am-2pm), West Bend Farmer's Market on Saturdays, and at the Homegrown Music Festival on July 12th where we'll be sharing sound healing experiences!

Summer beckons us outdoors, inviting exploration of the natural world that surrounds us—especially through the curious eyes of children. As school breaks free and routines dissolve, magical opportunities emerge for connecting with plant allies growing right in our own backyards.

The humble plantain (Plantago major) reveals itself as more than a common "weed" but rather a powerful healing companion for inevitable summer scratches, bites and stings. Native legends teach us this resilient plant follows human footprints across the land, spreading its medicine wherever people travel. When crushed into a simple poultice, it immediately soothes inflammation—nature's first aid growing freely underfoot. Meanwhile, red clover blooms alongside motherwort, nettles, dandelion and wild raspberry leaves, each offering distinct healing properties for those willing to identify and harvest them.

Against this botanical backdrop, children voice surprisingly profound concerns about environmental sustainability. "We're the last generation to see fireflies," one young voice observes, connecting garden spraying practices directly to declining insect populations. This ecological awareness emerges naturally when kids engage with the outdoors, discovering connections between human actions and environmental consequences that adults often overlook.

Beyond plant identification, summer creativity flourishes through hands-on projects like crafting herbal refresher sprays with rose water and essential oils. These activities balance screen time with sensory experiences, teaching children they can create rather than merely consume. The mantra "create, don't wait" extends beyond crafting into musical exploration, worship team participation, and even AI-assisted songwriting—all ways young minds express themselves while discovering their unique gifts.

For those seeking accessible plant medicine, community spaces like farmers markets and even local grocery stores now offer hemp-based wellness products alongside traditional foods. This "grocery aisle medicine" approach makes natural remedies more approachable, bridging the gap between conventional shopping habits and alternative health practices.

How will you embrace the natural pharmacy growing in your yard this summer? What conversations might emerge when you invite children to explore the plant world alongside you? The season's greatest gift may be simply time—time to notice, gather, create and connect with both the Earth and each other.

Between blooming meadows and bustling beehives, a profound philosophy emerges—bloom where you're planted. This mantra guides our exploration of plant allies that surround us, waiting to share their medicine if only we pause long enough to notice.

Red clover (Trifolium pratense) takes center stage in our discussion. This common meadow flower with its distinctive pinkish-red blossoms offers remarkable healing properties. From purifying blood and supporting cardiovascular health to balancing hormones with its naturally occurring phytoestrogens, red clover exemplifies how the earth provides precisely what we need. The plant's very color signals its affinity for blood-related conditions, demonstrating the ancient doctrine of signatures at work. We share practical advice for harvesting, preparing, and enjoying this gentle yet powerful ally through a simple tea infusion.

Our conversation deepens as we explore the indigenous concept of the honorable harvest, inspired by Robin Wall Kimmerer's teachings. This approach transforms plant gathering from mere foraging into a sacred relationship. Before harvesting anything, we must ask permission—yes, from the plant itself—take only what's needed, and leave the area better than we found it. This respectful interaction with the natural world isn't just philosophical; it ensures sustainable practices and deeper connection with our environment.

The discussion inevitably turns to cannabis, where we passionately advocate for whole-plant medicine over isolated compounds. Wisconsin's current trend toward Delta-9 THC beverages misses the plant's true healing potential by ignoring the entourage effect of its 100+ beneficial compounds working in harmony. We stand firmly for legalization, decriminalization, and the right to grow our own medicine without fear of persecution. After all, what other plant receives such scrutiny despite its extraordinary potential?

Ready to deepen your relationship with plant allies? Listen now, and discover how the earth always provides exactly what we need—we simply need to learn how to listen.

Two hemp farmers walk into the Midwest Women's Herbal Conference wearing bright Care Bear sweatsuit outfits, and what follows is a profound journey of reconnection and discovery.

Sunshine and Bubbles share their transformative weekend at the 14th annual gathering in Wisconsin, where they represented their farm as the only cannabis sponsor among herbalists and healers. Through laughter and genuine reflection, they unpack the wisdom gained from workshops on tree communication, plant energetics, and indigenous perspectives on our relationship with the natural world.

The podcast takes you on a sensory journey as they describe the powerful experience of forming relationships with individual trees, who shared messages about needing alternatives and respecting elders. They explore the doctrine of signatures – how plants often resemble the body parts they heal – and cannabis's unique role as a "master conductor" speaking to all energy centers and offering complete utility from root to flower.

What emerges is a profound conversation about our disconnection from nature being a relatively recent development in human history – perhaps only 100 years old – and how we might rebuild that bridge. The hosts reflect on women carrying "14 generations of knowledge," the importance of trusting our intuition when working with plants, and how slowing down to use all our senses creates deeper healing connections.

Between stories of drum circles, tobacco ceremonies, and sauna experiences, the episode reveals a vision of health centered on reciprocity with the earth. Rather than humans dominating nature from the top of a pyramid, we're invited to see ourselves as part of a circle where giving and receiving happen in equal measure.

Join us for this heart-opening conversation where cannabis cultivation meets ancient wisdom, and discover how reconnecting with the earth might be the healing we're all searching for. Have you hugged a tree lately? After listening, you might just feel called to try.

Ever wondered what happens when a raccoon decides your carefully planted hoop house is the perfect new home? We're tackling this challenge with an unexpected ally: country music at full volume! This small farming dilemma captures the essence of working with rather than against nature, a theme that runs throughout our conversation.

The spotlight of this episode falls on the humble yet mighty dandelion. Far from being just a pesky lawn invader, this resilient plant offers remarkable health benefits that many overlook. Like our beloved hemp plant, dandelion suffers from widespread misunderstanding despite its incredible therapeutic potential. We explore how this tenacious herb works as a powerful detoxifier that supports your liver, kidneys, and elimination pathways. From its sunny yellow flowers to its deep taproot, every part of this plant offers healing properties—truly a gift hiding in plain sight!

Looking ahead, we're bubbling with excitement about our upcoming appearance at the Midwest Women's Herbal Festival. As sponsors through DNA Hemp, we're proud to help reshape the narrative around cannabis in the herbal community. Last year's experience of sisterhood, knowledge-sharing, and those unforgettable sauna sessions have us counting down the days until we return. We approach this gathering with both enthusiasm and humility, ready to learn from the wisdom keepers who've been walking the plant path for decades.

Before we sign off, we extend a heartfelt invitation to join us for Memorial Day events in Slinger, Wisconsin. Walking alongside our veterans and honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice connects us more deeply to our community and reminds us of the importance of coming together in gratitude and remembrance.
