Magic and Folklore of Trees
David Rodger will weave mythology, magical practices and tales of woodland wisdom with advice on tree care and the everyday usefulness of woodland products.
Trees provide a unique insight into our relationship with the natural landscape and have been an important part of our culture for tens of thousands of years.
David will take you on a journey into the legends and myths of trees found in the modern landscape. We will look for tree spirits and gods, superstitions and practical counsel from our ancestors and ask questions such as just why there is such an affinity between people and trees, even today.
