Ep 153 Autumn Special With Faith Douglas

Jo welcomes back Faith Douglas who is the curator of Thorp Perrow Arboretum and the author of The Nature Remedy. They continue their series celebrating each season, and focus on Autumn. They talk about folklore associated with this time of year, what to harvest and plant, why leaves change colour and how to embrace change in our own lives.  Plus Jo finds out why liquorice has been so important in Pontefract, and learns the story of Pontefract Cakes at Pontefract Museum.      Presented, produced & edited by Jo Durrant.
