About this listen
Dive into the nurturing world of plant allies with two mothers who are reclaiming ancestral wisdom through their farm adventures. Take a sensory journey with motherwort—a powerful herb that embodies both lion-hearted strength and gentle maternal energy—harvested fresh from their land just in time for Mother's Day celebrations. This nervine tonic offers relief for anxiety, menstrual cramping, and hot flashes while connecting us to generations of women's wisdom that was nearly lost.
Experience their excitement as they unveil plans for a six-acre hemp farm featuring 30,000 feminized "Ultra Pink" seeds, promising high-CBD medicine with possibly pink pistils and purple buds. Their passion for regenerative agriculture extends beyond cannabis to diverse herbs, edible flowers, and vermicomposting systems that transform their land into a living pharmacy.
The conversation takes an honest turn as they share challenges and creative solutions for gardening with children. From "pizza gardens" to weeding competitions, they've found ways to make earth connection playful while passing down essential knowledge their own mothers couldn't share. These garden moments become sacred spaces for meaningful conversations and team-building that strengthen family bonds.
You'll feel transported by tales of Sicilian adventures where food, family, and tradition blend seamlessly—offering inspiration for integrating old-world wisdom into modern family life. The discussion comes full circle with their invitation to connect at the West Bend Farmer's Market, where community and direct relationships with food producers create the foundation for a healthier future.
Whether you're a plant enthusiast, gardening parent, or someone seeking more authentic connection with your food and medicine, this episode offers practical wisdom wrapped in contagious enthusiasm for living closer to the earth.
