As the Season Turns
As The Season Turns is produced in collaboration with Lia Leendertz, author of The Almanac: A Seasonal Guide. The podcast is now in its fifth edition.
Each episode is released on the first of the month and follows the changing landscape of the seasons - from the moon and the stars, to the tides and the trees.
Found Sounds are released on the middle Friday of each month - these brief, gentle snippets of a wild place in the UK are crafted by sound artist Alice Boyd from field recordings, music and interviews.

For November, Alice visits an apple tasting trial, organised by a project called Some Interesting Apples, at Kestle Barton in Cornwall. We hear from a panel of apple experts, academics and artists who are selecting and preserving wild-grown, chance-seedling apples for the Wilding Mother Orchard.

For November, let's crunch along leafy paths and hedgerows. We’ll gather sloes and the last apples, spot colourful mushrooms, and head to the Forest of Dean to spot a once-extinct mammal. Meanwhile spooking ourselves with tales of the Erl-King’s daughter under the light of the Darkest Depths Moon...
