Rose Hip Tea

I went out for a walk after the first frost of the Fall. It is so beautiful walking along the river. I went looking for and found some Rose Hips. The above picture shows what they looked like. I just picked a few as I wanted to make tea.

This picture shows the rose hips i picked. I will let them dry out a little, boil some water, let them sit for 5-10 minutes and enjoy some tea. This will give me extra vitamin C during the cold and flu season.
I have been told by the Elders to pick the Rose Hips after the first frost because that is when they are best used. 
I am so grateful for learning about medicines and using them for my health.
Ay hiy, Kinanaskomitin. "I thank you"
