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.

Latest Episode #

October

Join us for a chilly, colourful October day. We’ll meet drunken butterflies, tell stories of conkers and hawthorn, and after dark visit the city, to meet an animal who lives comfortably among the people there.

Found Sound for September: Matt Somerville

This September, Alice visits wild honey bee conservationist and carpenter Matt Somerville in his cottage in Hampshire. His work champions a bee-centred approach to conservation, placing the wellbeing of wild colonies above honey production. Together they explore Matt's practice of creating log hives that mimic bees’ natural habitats, and go on the hunt for wild bees...

September

Wander with us through a soft September day. We’ll gather fruit in the orchard, and blackberries and rosehips in the hedges - and eat them. Sam Lee gives us a new version of the old song 'Polly Vaughan', while this month’s mammal lives by water.

Found Sound for August: Hazel Gardiner

In August, Alice visits floral designer, writer and broadcaster Hazel Gardiner in London - where Hazel creates a joyful floral arrangement from her garden. Hazel Gardiner Design produces boundary-breaking floral experiences, blending sustainability with storytelling. Their bold, nature-led installations honour the seasonal cycle of flowers and plants.

August

For August, revel with us in the final days of summer. We refresh ourselves by the sea, looking for giants, and wander the woods in quest of danger... In the orchard we celebrate the leavings of summer storms, while in the shortening twilights we brandish hazel wands. Meanwhile, Sam Lee sings 'Up a Wild and Lonely Glen'.
