Seeds of Storytelling: Bevin Cohen's Journey from Sustainable Homesteading to Herbal Visionary

Renowned author, Heart of Herbs Alum, and sustainable homesteader Bevin Cohen captivates us with his dual life at Small House Farm in Michigan. Bevin shares how the serene Michigan winters fuel his prolific writing, leading to the creation of numerous books since 2018, including his debut, "From Our Seeds and their Keepers." We journey through Bevan's world of storytelling, exploring how his family-centered homestead provides a rich tapestry for his narratives and passion for sustainable living.

Join us as we delve into the deep connection between storytelling, herbal education, and family heritage. Bevin introduces his collaborative work with Timber Press, "Herbs and Every Season," a comprehensive guide to integrating herbs into daily life. From medicinal uses to culinary ventures like the unique sunflower cornbread recipe, Bevan's stories inspire us to consider the role of herbs in engaging and educating, all while celebrating the personal joy found in herbalism and cooking.

Discover the flourishing world of seed libraries and native plants as Bevin discusses their role in promoting biodiversity and community engagement. We explore the seeds of change being sown through these libraries, particularly among younger generations eager to embrace sustainable practices. Bevan's upcoming online class, "Herbs in Every Season," promises to equip listeners with the knowledge to cultivate their herb gardens, inspiring us all to unearth the extraordinary potential within our everyday lives.
