Herbalism With The Plantcestors

Herbal Wisdom From Our Foremothers

HAPPY HOODOO HERITAGE MONTH and Welcome to Season 2 of the Plantcestors podcast!!

This podcast is centered around keeping the spirit of plants alive through storytelling, traditional culture, and ancestral practices.

We also have a new co-host this season! Jo is a community herbalist and a doctoral student in nutrition. She’ll be joining us each episode for her What’s Tea segment, and in today’s episode she’s diving into how nutrition connects with herbalism.

For the main discussion, we’re honoring our foremothers through story telling. The women in our lineage who cooked with intention, healed with plants, and passed down wisdom through food, teas, and everyday rituals. Their relationship with the plant world shaped us, and that legacy still moves through us today.

Let’s grow together 🌱💛
