No holler too dark! No swamp too thick! No booger too bad for a well-armed witch!

Inspired by folklore, history, and the handful of herbalists, gardeners, & homestead ladies who open-carry, conceal carry, and/or hunt. In the 18th-century, in a sleepy town along the Hudson River, a witch named Mother Hulda bartered baskets, furs, & herbal medicines to her wary Dutch farm folk neighbors. When the Revolutionary War broke out, she joined the rebel militia as a sharpshooter, leading British dragoons into the discombobulating woods where they became lost. She was found dead from a single Redcoat musket ball & her Christian neighbors didn’t know what to do with her pagan body; some thought they shouldn’t touch it & should leave it to the woods but being thankful for the years of herbal medicine appearing on their doorsteps when they fell ill & for her voluntary service in protecting their homes, she was buried at the Old Dutch Church that later inspired Washington Irving’s classic, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Here are some firearms & plants, symbols & folk magic to protect the individual and their homestead: garlic, burdock root, dill bundle, rue leaves & St. John’s wort flowers; a Revolutionary War musket, Colt Peacemaker, shells & musket balls; a good luck horseshoe, the Sator Square palindrome to repel evil from one's barn & early versions of the Helm of Awe to frighten foes & wash away their wrath.
