  1. Mrs. Patara I must say your very inspiring. So interesting to see a small thing as a bean and seeing how it has two uses. Can't wait to see them sprout out of the ground and seeing the harvest. And I must say they have very beautiful colors and markings. The Lords creations are just amazing. Well… off to my incy wincy garden to do some much needed weeding and planting. My love to you and the entire family. <3

  2. Hi Patera
    This video really sparked my interest!! I love gardening and jewelry making and this combines the two! Thanks for the inspiration. The people here used to make beads from chinaberry seeds and dye them

  3. The most familiar name (there are many) for corn beads is Job's Tears. It is native to Africa. I'm very interested to learn how they came to be important to the Cherokee peoples because it is not a native species. (I had assumed, incorrectly, that it was native to the American plains.) Was it adopted during the time of Christian missionaries? I know that rosaries are made of the beads. You can buy them from amazon.

  4. I'm Cherokee Indian and I love you sharing this. Let me know if she had a site for selling these beads I'd be interested. Trail of tears I've read so much about the history but never knew about jobs tears.

  5. Love the intro with your hen. Mama used to dig dust holes in the chicken yard for the hens. They absolutely loved scratching through the dirt for juice worms and then dusting themselves off for mites and to cool off. She and Dad grew sunflowers and would toss a dried seed head to the chicken once in a while for a treat.

  6. I have watched you since the very beginning. We are finally moving to the farm this year. Thank you for all the information you give and the recipes. Where can I get corn beads? I am from Hazlet, Saskatchewan, Canada.
