Presenting: THE ARCHIVIST 🎥✨
David ‘Doc’ Rowe has spent decades documenting Britain’s vibrant folk traditions. Now, with time running short, he faces a race to preserve his legacy.
Rowe has devoted his life to documenting customs, songs and celebrations that few others thought worthy of attention, building an extraordinary archive along the way. As personal challenges mount and the collection’s future grows uncertain, the urgency of his mission sharpens. With remarkable access, we get close to Rowe as he pushes forward, idiosyncratic and unflappable, navigating the fragile line between preserving memory and letting go. THE ARCHIVIST is a story about one person’s determination to celebrate the living traditions that connect us to where we come from and who we are, whatever the cost.

Introducing TALISMAN and RELIQUARY two brand new zines for May! 🌿✨
TALISMAN: a zine devoted to myth, magick, and the small practices that cultivate mystery, stoke curiosity, and find beauty in the everyday. For solitary practitioners and intuitives among us, as well as the spiritually inclined.
Featuring contributions from Natasha Khan, Tree Carr, The Witches of Scotland, and more…
RELIQUARY: combines classic and contemporary supernatural tales alongside deep dives into uncanny fiction. With contributions from Katy Soar, Justin Hopper, and the enigmatic ‘Keeper of the Reliquary’. A must for fans of the literary weird.
Both zines are available to pre-order now, shipping will commence mid May.
BELTANE BLESSINGS TO YE ALL 🙌

💚💚💚 FINDING ALBION by ZAKIA SEWELL 💚💚💚
Happy publication day to @zzzakia 🙌✨
FINDING ALBION is the book we all need in 2026. It is essential reading for everyone with an interest in the rituals, folklore and sacred places that define the continued interest in the folk culture of these isles.
Zakia’s quest for another Britain begins at spring equinox as the sun rises over Glastonbury Tor, and follows the seasons as the turn. Notting Hill Carnival, Druidic ceremonies, misrule in Penzance, ghosts of empire and much much more is packed into this thoughtful, hopeful and deeply personal journey.
Also featuring beautiful illustrations by @alexmerryart

Ever since Alfred Watkins stumbled upon these linear trackways, ley lines have been revered, ridiculed, and reinvented many times, but they remain the ultimate in participatory landscape magic… Whether they are ceremonial paths, subtle energy channels, or plain magical thinking, they hold great imaginative power and provide, or course, much walking inspiration.
NEXT MONTH WE ARE FOLLOWING THE ST MICHAEL LEY LINE WEST TO PENRYN ✨
Join us if you can at the Verdant Brewery for music, dancing, legendary pale ale, and much merriment. See 🔗 in bio for all the deets 🙏
