このコンテンツについて

A quiet, seasonal podcast for slow living, plant lore, folklore, and noticing the natural world.

This podcast is a companion through the turning year, rooted in the rhythms of the seasons, the hedgerows, and the wider countryside. Each episode takes time to notice what is happening in the natural world right now — from the plants growing along paths and field edges, to birds, weather, and older seasonal traditions.

There is a particular focus on plant lore and the everyday plants of the hedgerows, exploring what is growing at different times of year and how these plants have traditionally been used, noticed, and valued. Episodes consider gentle, practical ways we can incorporate seasonal plants into daily life — through food, simple rituals, observation, and creative or domestic practices.

Each month, the podcast also explores seasonal recipes, activities, or small ways of marking the time, looking at how our ancestors celebrated and honoured the seasons through food, preparation, storytelling, and rhythm rather than urgency or excess.

Rooted in British seasonal living and folklore, this podcast offers a slower alternative to modern, productivity-driven wellbeing. It is not about fixing yourself or following trends, but about paying attention, living in step with the year, and finding meaning in the natural cycles that continue around us.

Best listened to while walking, resting, making, or whenever you want to feel a stronger connection to the natural world.

  • Episode 1 January - Wassailing, Witches butter and a small ritual
    2026/01/12

    January is a month of watching rather than beginning.

    In this first episode, we settle into the quiet heart of winter and take time to notice what is still moving, growing, and enduring while the land rests. January in the hedgerows and countryside is shaped by water, weather, and winter presence — birds become more visible, fungi and lichens replace colour with texture, and plants wait beneath the surface.

    This episode explores:

    • What January looks and feels like in the natural world
    • Winter plants of the hedgerows and woodland edges, including jelly fungi and lichens
    • Gentle plant lore and the stories carried through the darker months
    • How our ancestors understood January as a time for endurance, mending, and preparation rather than new starts
    • Simple seasonal reflections and ways to honour this quieter part of the year

    Rather than rushing toward change, this episode offers permission to pause, observe, and remain present with the season as it is. January asks us not to begin again, but to stay.
