About this episode
For December, our final episode of 2024, we mark the winter solstice with fireside tales of elder trees and wrens. The Breath sing 'Carry Your Kin', a song for the turn of the year, and we walk through the still, dim woods, looking for winter's jewels. As the Season Turns is an award-winning podcast presented by Lia Leendertz and created by Ffern, makers of small-batch, seasonal perfume. To find out more visit www.ffern.co
