Herbal histories poDcast

[currently in production]

One plant covered per month where we take an in depth look into their historical uses in medicine, magic, folklore, mythology & science, whilst considering the ethnographical contexts throughout the Ages. Episodes are extensively researched, cross-referenced & formulated in a somewhat scripted, story-telling format.

Bonus content along with early access, ad-free episodes will be available.

This is a passion project of medical herbalist & botanical educator, Jaynaya D’Esterre Atkins.

Jaynaya is currently undertaking a Graduate Certificate in Ancient History, and is still very much an amateur in regard to history & ethnobotany. This project is born out of immense interest, passion and attention to detail.
