Tales from the Hedgerow and Moor

What’s This Podcast
About?

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.
