Trees in Folklore: Ancient Myths, Forest Spirits, and the Secrets They're Keeping

from Folkloric · host PeaPod Productions

They were here before us. They will be here after we're gone. And in the meantime, they are definitely watching. For as long as people have been brave enough to go into the woods, trees have given us shelter, oxygen, fruit, and stories. People from all over the world and throughout history have looked up into those branches and felt something old looking back at them. So the question isn't if trees have power. Should we be afraid of it or respect it? Join Michelle and Beth as they dig deep into tree folklore, forest mythology, and the very human need to figure out why something that old and that shouldn't make you feel that way makes you feel that way.
