Yes. Strider also orders Merry and Pippin to boil as much water as they can after Frodo has been stabbed, and to bathe his wound with it, so they keep kindling wood. Well, they keep the fire going, anyway. He orders them to, before he goes to try to figure out the Riders' movements, and comes back with athelas (which he walks far to find, and detects by the scent of its flowers, I think).
Although I don't think we hear the word kingsfoil until Gondor, I kind of wish I'd used it instead of kindle.
