Expect laughter, lore, and a dash of rebellion as the Seed Sistas revive Mandrake’s story, exposing the myths…

Step right up for a wildly entertaining herbal caper! Join the Seed Sistas, Fi and Kaz, herbalists, witches, and botanical mischief-makers, as they uncover The Great Mandrake Robbery. Once revered as a sacred, screaming root of magic and medicine, Mandrake has been snatched from the people’s hands and locked away by modern legislation. Through theatrixs, myth-busting, and a healthy dose of sass, the Seed Sistas tell the tale of Mandragora, from ancient tombs and Shakespearean drama to JK Rowling’s unfortunate cartoon baby. Discover how this infamous root once symbolized fertility, love, death, and transformation… and how it’s been silenced by the very systems meant to “protect” us. Expect laughter, lore, and a dash of rebellion as the Seed SistAs revive Mandrake’s story, exposing the myths, celebrating the magic, and reclaiming the power of the plants.
