It’s time to start planning our 2025 gardens. Bevin shares five seeds that you need to grow this year! Try growing something new this season and remember to have fun in the garden!

Heather joins us in the Seeds & Weeds studio for an exciting tea tasting adventure! We’ll be sampling four herbal tea blends that Heather created last year for members of our Patreon community! Each season, members of our community receive specially curated gift boxes, full of unique, handcrafted herbal products, including these amazing teas.

We sample four teas: RiseRossoAdapt and Forest. Learn about the different herbs we use, plus some tasting notes, growing tips and all sorts of useful herbal info! You can learn more about joining our Patreon community here.

Our tea tasting was inspired by our season two episode featuring Youtuber Wendi Phan. Listen here.

You can browse the Small House Farm apothecary and seed store here.

Support the podcast by joining our Patreon for as little as $3/month!
