The Autumn Garden Apothecary

The Autumn Garden Apothecary

In this episode of Nature & Nourish, I'm opening up my autumn apothecary and sharing the seasonal herbs, traditional preparations and plant wisdom I return to as we move through autumn.

Herbalism was the gateway to my relationship with the natural world, and I share a little of that journey, from childhood fascinations with plants and natural formulations to the herbs I now work with on our farm in Northern Ireland.

We explore three of my favourite autumn herbs: yarrow, with its rich folklore, associations with protection and traditional uses; elder, a generous hedgerow plant I've known since childhood; and burdock, a deeply nourishing root with a particular affinity for autumn.

Along the way, I share some of my favourite traditional herbal preparations, including my elder tea, burdock decoction and the classic Gypsy Cold & Flu Syrup.
