In this enchanting episode, we invite you to embark on a journey through the lush world of the birch tree, celebrated for its ethereal beauty and profound healing properties. Join your favorite herbalists, Tash (@avantgardenlife) and Philipp (@powerplantsberlin), as we delve into the symbolism and significance of this remarkable tree—a true light-bringer and harbinger of new beginnings.

This month, we are thrilled to introduce the lovely birch (Betula alba and Betula pendula), a tree that has woven itself into the fabric of herbal medicine and culinary delights. We’ll explore its characteristics, uses, and the rich historical tapestry that surrounds it.

Our special guest this episode is the delightful Rupert Waites, a passionate chef and forager from the wilds of Scotland. Rupert, whom Tash met at an annual foragers meet-up, brings a wealth of knowledge about birch sap and its transformative role in the culinary world. Together, we’ll uncover the magic of birch and how it has inspired Rupert's innovative creations with his award-winning brand, Buck and Birch.

As we navigate the delicate threads connecting us to this magnificent tree, we’ll share personal anecdotes, practical tips, and fascinating insights into the birch’s role in traditional and modern herbalism.

So, grab a cup of birch tea and settle in as we celebrate the spirit of the birch tree—a symbol of renewal, resilience, and the vibrant connection between nature and our daily lives. Let’s explore, learn, and grow together on this herbal journey!

Herby At Heart - Episode 9 - The Birch

This episode, we dive into the lush, aromatic world of wild garlic, known as bear’s leek or Allium ursinum. We will also look at its notruously famous cousin, that people tend to mistake as wild garlic here in Berlin, the wildly famous Few-flowered leek aka “wunderlauch” (allium paradoxum)
We have the pleasure of interviewing Olga Graf for this episode. She has the spirit of a siberian bear and the energy of wild garlic. 
When spring whispers through the forest floor, and a strong garlicky scent fills the air, it’s a sign: the bear’s plant has returned.
Growing in rich green carpets beneath trees, wild garlic is among the first plants to awaken in early spring – and the forest answers with a vibrant, living aroma. Its star-shaped, white flowers light up the woods like little constellations, attracting bees, flies, and humble pollinators alike.
But wild garlic is more than a seasonal green – it carries stories, healing power, and even the echo of old gods and forest spirits. From the way ants help spread its seeds, to the belief that bears eat it to regain their strength after hibernation – this is a plant rooted in both nature and myth.
Let’s explore its name, its uses, and the deep, ancient wisdom it brings with every leaf.

Herby At Heart - Episode 11 - Hawthorn

This episode we're basking in the golden glow of St. John's Wort, a vibrant herb with a rich history of medicinal use. Known scientifically as *Hypericum perforatum*, this flowering plant has been treasured for centuries for its potential mood-boosting properties.


St. John's Wort is most commonly associated with easing symptoms of mild to moderate depression. Research suggests it may be as effective as some standard antidepressants, possibly by influencing neurotransmitter activity in the brain, similar to how selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) work. 
Beyond its potential antidepressant effects, St. John's Wort has traditionally been used for a variety of other ailments. We‘re diving in the signature of St. John’s Blood - the use in traditional and modern Herbal Medicine.
Some studies suggest it may help alleviate menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, while others explore its potential for wound healing, anxiety relief, and improved sleep quality. 		
Join us as we continue to explore the world of St. John's Wort, delving deeper into its fascinating properties and potential benefits.

Herby At Heart - Episode 12 - Hypericum

Today, plants will soothe your senses and mellow us out. Known to some as blue mallow, to others as common mallow and to a few as cheese-cake. Malva spp. as well as the more famous cousin, Marshmallow. 

This month, we have the absolute pleasure of chatting with the wondrous Mo Wilde. Who decided to eat wild food for a year and see what it did to her biome? So sit back, relax and let this episode soothe your soul.


On Herby at Heart, we're all about exploring the power of plants, and today's topic, mallow with a sprinkle of marshmallow, has a deep connection to Monica Wilde's work.  Her Wildbiome Project, where she delved into the world of wild food, likely brought her up close and personal with these mucilage-rich plants. We're curious to hear her perspective on how these herbs can benefit our digestive systems and contribute to a balanced gut microbiome.  Given her focus on integrative medicine, we'll also explore how the sometimes forgotten common mallow can fit into a broader approach to health and well-being. Plus, knowing Mo's passion for accessible herbalism, we're betting she has some top tips for incorporating these readily available plants into our everyday lives. So, stick with us as we delve into the world of mallows with the brilliant Mo Wilde!

HAH - Episode 13 - (Marsh)Mallow



Today Herb has qualities of an activist and warrior fighting for justice; she marches with a firm, steady stride—neither soaring nor earthbound, but centred deep in her power. She helps you put on your battle armour, a cool intellect guiding your heart. With wry humour and no-nonsense energy, she stands using both head and heart. We would like to welcome Yarrow, Achillea millefolium.
We also have the pleasure of interviewing Florencea, aka Flo, a woman who also stands tall using her head and her heart
Florencia (she/her) is a plant-based culinary designer from Chile, living in Berlin since 2016. She has led food-centred workshops since 2019 and, since 2024, has been part of the Nourished collective with her project OHNE (2016).
Through this platform, she creates multi-sensory workshops, events, and rituals — spaces for exploration and shared encounters where living foods, nature’s rhythms, astrology, ancestral medicine, tarot, and herbalism converge in connection with community.
She approaches food as art, medicine, and ritual — a medium for translating symbolic languages into edible forms that invite us to embody ancient-looking perspectives and experience eating as a way to reconnect with nature from within.
Her work is an ever-evolving process, guided by curiosity and intuition, shaped by a dialogue among the visible and the invisible, where food becomes a bridge between the personal, the collective, and the cosmic.

Herby At Heart - Episode 14 - Yarrow

This Episode, we sink deeper into the forest’s mysteries—guided by the ancient wisdom of the woods and the healing secrets of mushrooms.
In this episode, we journey into the world of the shiitake—a mushroom treasured not only for its deep, earthy flavor, but for its remarkable healing powers. Revered in the tales of old as an elixir of vitality and longevity, shiitake weaves together nourishment and resilience, lending strength to body and spirit. It stands as a guardian in the woodland shade, transforming decay into renewal and offering its gifts of immunity, balance, and vibrant life.
Joining us among moss and morning dew is Moritz, better known as “Into the Woods.” As a mushroom expert, certified forest bathing guide, and woodland artist, Moritz has spent his life listening to the forest’s stories and sharing its quiet magic with others. Together, we’ll trace the path of shiitake through myth and medicine, discovering how this mushroom, shaped by earth and time, can be an ally for healing and wonder.
So, bring a cup of tea and let your senses open—we invite you to walk with us, as Herby at Heart steps into the shade-dappled world of mushrooms and the hands that know them best.

Herby At Heart - Episode 15

Celestial Dub

https://jahtari.lnk.to/tapesSo
The master of the magnetic scrolls is back at the boombox with his second Jahtari EP, once again exploring the more rugged corners of the dub universe. On Side A ‘Where Is The Time’ creates a rhythmical space-time paradoxon straight away, with harmonies that stream right off a dysfunct flux capacitor module. Next up ‘Persian Pulse Width’ switches the tape heads into heavy current mode, driving a battery of damaged 8-bit-chips into a thermal meltdown.

Side B contains two special cuts of older Tapes gems: a 12″ extended dub mix of Vernon Maytone’s ‘Old Pan Sound’ that originally came out on a now hard to find 7″ on Tape’s Selah Wadadda label. And an ultra-heavy, extra-crackling cassette mix of the ghostly ‘Pipe Cleaner’ with haunting flutes by Diggory Kenrick that recently appeared as limited 7 on Meeuw Muzak. Serious voltage baked on tape here!
