What if one of the planet’s most resilient climate fighters was right under your feet? In the cracks of walls you passed everyday. In this episode, Bryologist Hester Buck gives voice to the humble Pin Cushion Moss — a small but mighty survivor in the face of environmental change.Together, we explore what this unassuming green cushion can teach us about adaptation, resilience, and the beauty of overlooked ecosystems. From the cracks in pavements to ancient woodland floors, Pin Cushion Moss quietly holds moisture, shelters micro-life, and restores balance to the soil.

Get comfortanble on any kind of cushion and join host Joyce Veheary in this gentle yet powerful conversation as we learn how even the smallest, softest voices in nature play a vital role in the fight against climate breakdown — and how listening more closely might just change the way we see the ground beneath our feet.

Listen. Learn. Tread lightly.

Featuring Jean Vernon on Conversations with Nature
In this delightfully buzzing pilot episode of Conversations with Nature, Jean Vernon becomes the leaf-cutter bee — a tiny, tireless mother with scissors for jaws.Through her, we hear the story of a creature that cuts perfect circles from leaves, not to destroy but to build: lining tiny nurseries with care, crafting safety from green.While other bees chase pollen and glory, she’s quietly clipping rose leaves into perfect crescents — so her babies might dream in green. I join Jean among the roses to chat about the art of invisible labour, the madness and magic of motherhood, and why sometimes the most extraordinary architects are the ones nobody sees.
Expect tenderness and a few leafy life lessons from the smallest of mothers.
