Karen spraying Eric with Fayston Forager’s Natural Tick Repellent.
It’s hard to beat summers in Vermont: cool, clear lakes and rivers; a lush green landscape; access to some of the most amazing local, organic foods; and so much more.
Oh, and the bugs: mosquitos, black flies, no-see-ums, gnats, deer flies, horse flies, ticks….. Summer is so short in this more northerly state. The key is to find a way to make peace with the bugs and maximize enjoyment of these precious days.
Carry natural tick and bug repellents with you; reapply often; shower or swim and check for ticks daily. Also key is keeping your immune system healthy and strong.

Fayston Forager tinctures each offer immune-boosting support and are here to help:
- Japanese Knotweed’s anti-microbial properties can help combat exposures to bacteria, viruses, spirochetes and funguses.
- Chaga can help your body manage physical and emotional stresses.
- Hawthorn supports your cardiovascular system.
And so much more!
Find Fayston Forager products here and in Central Vermont at The Roots Farm Market, von Trapp Farmstead, East Warren Community Market, 5Th Quarter Butcher + Provisions and Bisbee’s Hardware (Bisbee’s carries Tick Repellent only).
Thank you and be well!
