Plant Stories: original stories related to plants plus a taste of plant-related African, Yoruba myths.

Every culture has its myths and fables - tales from around the world that have evolved to explain how we interact with each other, nature, and the elements - tales that, above all, have evolved to help us cope with our fears, achieve our dreams, and help us understand our planet and our place in it.

Plants feature among the heroes in all our plant stories and set in context to help the listener understand more about: each plant, people, animals, insects, and environments they are likely to be surrounded by - this makes these stories especially entertaining and educational for children and adults wanting to learn about plants and how our planet functions. Enjoy!
