In this episode, Rebecca speaks with Kaz and Fi from Seed Sistas, clinical herbalists and green witches whose work is rooted in reconnecting people with plants through science, story, sensory experience, and everyday herbal wisdom.

Together, they explore how Seed Sistas began, why so many people have become disconnected from the medicinal plants growing around them, and how herbs can support physical wellbeing, empowerment, imagination, ecological care, and a deeper sense of belonging in the living world.

Kaz and Fi share how theatre, costume, storytelling, folklore, and sensory experience became central to their teaching, helping people move beyond lists of herbal constituents and into a more embodied relationship with plants. They also discuss the creation of modern plant folklore, including their practice of inviting people to personify herbs, dream with them, and understand their medicine through story, character, and direct relationship.

The conversation also explores their Sensory Herbal Oracle Deck, a project that took nearly twenty years, and how the cards work as a teaching tool, guidance system, and invitation into plant connection. Through imagery, affirmation, reflection, and herbal knowledge, the deck offers a way for people to let the plants speak into their lives, health, emotions, and spiritual practice.
