This week we're discussing a poison that LITERALLY grows on trees for part 2 of our deadly poisons series. This infamous plant gives us an episode filled with twists, turns, and one SUPER messed up marathon. If you like true crime, fun facts, and weird history- you'll love this episode.

This week we're digging into the magic of community by taking a quick peak into the Lagoon Fairy Tree (or Bush depending on who you ask) in Ireland. After being really sick for 2 weeks (and candidly really sad about what's happening with our Parks and Public Lands here in the US) this was a good reminder of what we can do when we work together. No action is too silly or too small when it comes to protecting our community. Thank you for being a part of mine.

This week we're talking about the FREAKS of the Oak family, Cork oak! These bald beauties pop up in everything from high class wineries to old school science labs, and we couldn't be more perplexed by them. If you're into niche farming, weird growth habits, or just a big fan of oaks, you'll really dig this one!

This week we're digging in to a sappy favorite- Maple! With history, folklore, and a dash of sweetness, this is one episode you wont want to miss!

If you like fronds, friends, and fiendish foot races, you'll really dig this one.

This week we’re digging into cosmetic turned conspirator- Belladonna. If empowered ladies, wacky medical history, ancient makeup, or valkyries are your vibe, you won't want to miss this one.

Curious about how the heck cranberries made their way to your holiday feast AND medicine cabinet? We’ve got answers to those, and other questions you didn’t even know you had on this week’s episode. We’ll dive into massive mastodon dictatorships, ancient cliff bars, and so much more! Whether you know cranberries as a fruit, medicine, or music group, you’ll want to tune in.

Mum’s the word on this week’s episode as we dig into a fall favorite and highly requested plant- chrysanthemums- a plant with almost as many contradictions as it has petals.

In our final episode of the potion mini-series we dig into a plant with a history almost as mysterious as it's blooms - Wolfsbane. If you need a cure for lycanthropy, or just a little extra intrigue in your garden, this one's got you covered!

This week we continue our potion mini-series with everyone's favorite Allium- Garlic! We'll dig in to all of the history you're hoping for and then some...everything from real-life vampires, piggish party crashers, and anti-parasitic palate cleansers. If you like episodes heavy on history AND science, this one is for you!

This week we are digging into a plant that started as a punishment, but quickly took the world by storm- it’s peas, if you please! This episode is filled with lots of science and history bits, so if you tend to like those parts best, this one’s for you.

This week we dig into a plant that’s heavy on the witchy folklore- Willow! We’ll be covering everything from the perfect way to express your post-breakup angst (not bangs) to how an ancient goddess tricked a man into swallowing stones instead of his son… it’s a bit of a wild ride, but one I am sure you’ll enjoy!

This week we're digging deeper into the vine swallowing the south- Kudzu!

This week we are taking a closer look at a tree you’ve likely heard of- and maybe even used- The Neem Tree! If you like episodes that are heavy on folklore, cultural uses, and controversy, I think you’ll really dig this episode.
