Welcome to The Violet Vulture!
Today we've got a super special guest on the podcast, fellow multi-passionate, storytelling purveyor of fine teas, botanical bitters, and wild curiosities: Ashley of Old Growth Alchemy (they/them)!
In this episode, we'll get into the following and then some:
Being a jack-of-all trades (and fully owning it)
What kicked off their interest in making tea and bitters and other curious ephemera
The tea on OGA Tea Guild and the importance of co-creating with community
How their approach to their work is informed by their environment (aside from sourcing local ingredients), magic, and stories
Which pieces of lore and fantasy fandoms feel the most like home to them
The importance of supporting magical boundary work in our current era
If you're keen to learn more about the value of curating cozy moments and thoughtfully retreating from the day-to-day, this one is for you.
