Thank you so much to the Cypriot Wine Festival and Business Expo for having us! For this episode, I'm joined by Rebecca Lazarou aka Laz The Plant Scientist. We discuss how the land can connect us to our roots, the importance of holistic healing and why Cypriot (and non-western) culture is rooted in herbal wellbeing. Rebecca is currently curating a project at Kew Gardens exploring ancient Cypriot medicines - if you have any knowledge to share get in touch with her at <a href= "mailto:cypriotmedicines@gmail.com.">cypriotmedicines@gmail.com.</a> Rebecca is a medical plant scientist at Kew Gardens, herbal expert, holistic therapist and educator. She is also the founder of Laz The Plant Scientist, an educational platform for holistic wellness. Follow us on instagram/twitter @roottovinepod.

Conversations on: diaspora Cypriot identity - Adrian Patsalos (NEPOMAK UK) - Cypriot Wine Festival

From Root To Vine is the first podcast to archive and explore diasporic Cypriot roots, by speaking to diverse voices at the heart of the community. I (Maria) will be deep diving into Cypriot identity through cultural and historical oral histories in the diaspora and beyond. Whilst our island may be divided, our roots remain as one.
