Mint

This week we share a story about mint, picked for a tea and a time to sit and talk. Except that is not so easy when you are now in London and your family are in Kyiv, but still Anya describes it as 'a plant which keeps us together.' We hear about a chain of gardening knowledge passed through 4 generations of Ukrainian women. We also talk about how people garden even in the midst of war with war journalist Lalage Snow. And Jean Levy the holder of a National Mint collection shares her passion for this plant. You can find all the names of the plants mentioned in the show notes on the website: Ourplantstories.com Music: Fade to Black by Howard Levy Our Plant Stories is produced and presented by Sally Flatman This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy
