This week, it’s Margo, Gwen, Maeve, and Brian— yes, the usual suspects— gathered ‘round our well-loved, wax-stained, definitely-seen-some-things coffee table.

We’ve got candles burning, notebooks open, and a tasty little black cherry cider from BC on the side (because we’re fancy like that).

But tonight’s topic? Oh, just a little something light and breezy like... Paganism and Clergy.
Yep—we’re going there.Paganism and Clergy.

Let’s be real: it’s not something you hear about every day in the wider world, but in our communities, it’s a conversation that’s long overdue.

We’re asking the big stuff:

🕯️ What is "clergy" , Pagan-style?
🕯️ Do we need it, or are we all just DIY priests and priestesses anyway?
🕯️ Who gets to say they’re clergy, and is there a secret Pagan paperwork club no one told us about?
🕯️ Most importantly, what does this look like in practice? From hospital visits and end-of-life care to handfastings and community rituals… does having a go-to spiritual person make a difference?

We’re getting into it with all the honesty, sass, and side-eye you’d expect. No gatekeeping, no fluff—just a real convo about leadership, service, and support in our modern Pagan lives.

✨ CALL TO ACTION: Okay, your turn.
Have you ever worked with clergy in a Pagan context, or been one? Do you think formal roles help or hurt the path? Got a spicy take on who gets to call themselves a High Priestess?
We wanna hear it!
Drop us a message, leave a comment, howl at the moon—whatever works. What do you think?

🌿 Three Witches and a Druid – Episode: "Magical Gardening" 🌿
Attention spellcasters and soil lovers!

Welcome back to another lush and lively episode of Three Witches and a Druid, where the herbs are thriving and the hosts are in full bloom!

This week, our favourite garden gnomes in disguise—Maeve, Margo, Gwen, and Brian—sprout from their usual cauldron side chatter and dig their hands into the dirt (literally ).

The coven takes a field trip to the enchanting Lowland Gardens, nestled in Great Village, Nova Scotia. A locally owned greenhouse that's practically bursting with green magic.

Joining them is a dear friend and fellow druid, Michael, whose family runs the greenhouse and knows his compost from his cauldrons. Together, they chat about:

🌕 Lunar gardening wisdom— Why the first full moon in June might just be your garden’s best friend.

🌱 Planting with purpose — From herbs that heal to veggies that vibe - and * random zucchini -ing's *♻️ Sustainable Gardening — How local, earth-friendly gardening connects us more deeply to the land and magic. AND a fascinating deep dive into a more sustainable and earth-friendly heating system for the greenhouse!
✨ Everyday enchantments — Magical kitchen moments and the alchemy of homemade lemon balm tinctures.
☕️ Spilled tea alert! — Hear all about the April Fools' prankthat spiralled into unexpected hilarity… and a good reminder not to believe everything you see online … no matter how magical it may seem.

Whether you're a seasoned green witch or just now realizing your basil plant might be judging you, this episode is packed with inspiration, laughter, and a little soil under your nails.

So grab your garden gloves, your moon calendar, and a cup of something herbal—it's time to get magically muddy.
