Our reviews are astounding and so much of what we do has been by request and of course, is what my family uses. Items like our anti-itch and healing salve and hormone balancing salve, the skin serum and shampoo bars, a powerful dermatitis salve, using the wax from our beehives, as beekeepers and the tinnitus tea with several wins behind it, and wow! Did you see the review posted on our Facebook and the dramatic results in the varicose veins? We wild forage and find much of our medicine in nature and Creation as we show our journey at on facebook and our website at www.fillingamehomestead.com I am extremely passionate about what we do, Creation has saved my sons life when we were given no hope and no treatment.
