May 21

For the May episode of our podcast, we explore the changing hedgerows, the traditions and folklore surrounding May Day, why primroses might help with fairies, the return of the swallows and the names of the full moon: Mother’s Moon, Bright Moon and Flower Moon. 'As the Season Turns' is a podcast created by Ffern and presented by the nature writer and author of the Seasonal Almanac Lia Leendertz. Each episode, released on the first of every month, is a guide to what to look out for in the month ahead - from the sky above to the land below.
