About Roundup Pesticide
Roundup is poisoning our world, It's active chemical ingredient glyphosate is associated with many diseases and heath issues. Over 650 million tons of glyphosate were used in 2013 alone ( 1 ). It can't be washed off and is used as a drying agent before harvesting many crops including; wheat, sugar, barley, oats, dried beans and more ( 2 ). 75 to 80% of processed foods sold in the U.S. have ingredients from genetically engineered plants that are grown with glyphosate based pesticides - mostly Roundup ( 3 ).
"Glyphosate was significantly higher in humans (fed) conventional (food) compared with predominantly organic (fed) humans. Also the glyphosate residues in urine were grouped according to the human health status. Chronically ill humans had significantly higher glyphosate residues in urine than healthy humans"(4). - Monica Kruger, ENVIRONMENTAL & ANALYTICAL TOXICOLOGY

- I love to eat my weeds. As a 30 year breast cancer survivor being healthy is a priority for me. Every spring I use dandelion root tincture daily in my tea for at least a month. I want to support the health of my liver, it's a major detoxing organ and dandelions are a tonic for the liver(6). This also helps keep my digestive juices strong
- I love to eat my weeds. As a 30 year breast cancer survivor being healthy is a priority for me. Every spring I use dandelion root tincture daily in my tea for at least a month. I want to support the health of my liver, it's a major detoxing organ and dandelions are a tonic for the liver(6). This also helps keep my digestive juices strong so I can maximize my nutrient absorption, to help maintain my body's health. Now At 60 most people think I'm in my 40's. Besides good genes I chalk it up to fresh healthy eating, exercise & a positive outlook. I hope you enjoy your exploration of dandelions.

- I love to photograph the plants in my yard & along hikes. I put in a rain garden with indigenous plants & was super excited to see monarch caterpillars munching on the leaves of my marsh milkweed. I've also seen praying mantis - one a 4 incher - Wow. I've been hoping to have toads in my yard - good garden pest control. I've made a few impromptu toad houses & now they're here singing in the evenings - Love it...So Thankful!

Pilgrim Heidi Kambitsch is an artist who creates Open Heart Creatures; expressed body puppets, installations, and paintings as tools for positive change. She is the mother of 3 boys living together in a little yellow house in Clintonville of Columbus, Ohio. She completed studies at the Columbus College of Art and Design in 1999 with a focus on Fine Arts and Art Therapy. For 10 years following, she facilitated support groups throughout Columbus elementary schools. Through this, Pilgrim was able to create murals and stories with children. As her experience grew with the powerful and non-threatening ways of speaking through a puppet, her puppet passion grew--as well as her store bought puppet collection. Pilgrim became known as the 'Puppet Lady'. But something was not quite right. The store bought puppets all have smiles. She found her motivation to make puppets with the full spectrum of emotion. Not just happy. She taught herself how to sew. For the past 20 years, Pilgrim has been painting her own puppets and paintings, recently focusing on hands and dandelions with more emphasis on nature paintings. Finding the feeling in the woods, in humans, and puppets.
