I've used it since we started camping. The ingredients are excellent, but you have to dilute it a lot since it cleans so well and strips oils. My favorite way is to add around 5% to a foaming dispenser. Then I add whatever essential oils that I like. Add hot water and shake. A little lasts a long time.
That's wonderful. That's a valuable skill that's not taught at universities, but should be offered.
Most herbs are considered generally safe and proven for their given use. I can't say that for drugs, either Rx or not. Your Mom sounds like she has done a good job raising you... How big is your family?

Wow, what a blessing!
I had a friend who was an herbalist who trained me. We studied wild edible plants too. That's why I mentioned dandelion greens in the spring. It sounds strange, but I like them when they're in season. I have perennial food in my back yard, besides the few wild greens.

There are some very good books on the subject. Those are good to have for field manuals and positive IDs IMHO. If she doesn't have a copy already and you are ever looking for a gift for her, many like the Peterson Field Guide to Wild Edible Plants of the Eastern US. In case it's something of interest to her. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/378203.A_Field_Guide_to_Edible_Wild_Plants

How fortunate you are to be home schooled. That's such an advantage. I went through the public school system, and earned a 5 year agricultural degree in Animal and Veterinary Sciences at a land grant university. My pastor and church asked me to be on their church school board. I was up front and honest. I let them know that I have known students who were public, christian, and home schooled. I also did a research paper comparing standardized tests of each category. I told them that there are plenty of exceptions, however I would have to recommend home schooling to any parents who wanted my opinion. Regardless, they still wanted me on the board.
So, for some very important reasons, I recommend home schooling whenever possible.
