079. Plants as Medicine with Taylor Lamb and Jewel Zimmer Aug 15, 2024

Show notes

Today Bailey interviews the founders of Juna, a plant-based wellness company that uses science, herbalism, biology, and naturopathy to create formulas that enhance our health. Taylor Lamb and Jewel Zimmer share each of their stories in coming to the wellness and plant space - one fueled by a childhood in the family-owned plant nursery and one a chef. Over the course of the conversation, they talk about the 90,000 chemicals introduced to Americans in the 1970s, how 90% of women experience anxiety, and how the terpenes in plants influence our bodies with 1,000s of molecules and benefits. This is a great conversation about the power of plants and how every woman deserves to feel their best no matter what.

070. The Reality of Seeds with Anne Fletcher Apr 25, 2024

Show notes

This discussion is one of my favorites to date! The truth about seeds is that they are not all created equal. In fact, where they come from is quite important. Anne Fletcher of Orta Kitchen Gardens joins us and tells her story of creating beautiful seed-starting pots after killing so many of her plants. Anne is a self-proclaimed unnatural green thumb with ADHD who wanted to start her own seeds and needed a more hands-off solution. She shares the journey to founding Orta Kitchen Garden, as well as the importance of the history of seeds. What was once a local and diverse system is now a consolidation of just a few big companies with few options. Anne educates us on the difference between hybrid seeds and heirloom seeds, and which we really need to support. She digs into seed saving and how every gardener can benefit from that experience.

Anne shares some of her favorite heirloom seed companies as well as her tips for keeping seedlings alive - this is the best dive into the world of seeds and is really a fantastic resource for all gardeners.

Seed Companies mentioned:

Strictly Medicinal

Feral Heart Farm

Redwood Seeds

Living Seed

Adaptive Seed

Wild Garden Seed

Fedco
