gardening: natural weed killer

Castile soap, white vinegar, and essential oils: wintergreen, clove, cinnamon back, and wild orange - that's it! Most household vinegars are pre-diluted with water at 5% acidity and intended for use in recipes. We recommend you use one that is 9% or higher (great for pickling and as a general purpose cleaning additive) - some hardware stores and online retailers offer 20-30% acidity - perfect for our DIY weed killer recipe.

Visiting or do you live in Santa Fe, New Mexico? Join me with my friends Astrid and Jackie this Friday, May 25, for week two of the 2018 Eldorado Farmers Market. It's at the La Tienda Shopping Center, Avenida Vista Grande (first left), Santa Fe. Opens at 3:30 PM and we'll be there between 4 - 6 PM MT. We will be sharing our Natural Weed Killer recipe and giving away a 1/2-gallon batch to the first visitor at our doTERRA table with an empty 1/2 gallon spray bottle!
