Jeff Gillman, the Director of the Botanical Gardens, hosts a podcast that investigates the surprising history, biology, and culture behind the plants we eat.

From apples and artichokes to digitalis and peyote, Jeff and co-host Cindy Proctor, an instructor at Central Piedmont Community College, discuss the plants that we interact with on a daily basis and how they can sustain us, intoxicate us, cure us of disease, and even kill us.
