Welcome to Foley woods. This place is an imaginary woodland. As we walk about the forest we might find the Carousel Chorus, and storytellers and poets, Eleana Re and Yassin Zelestine. After so many months indoors, we thought we should spend some time outside, in nature, relaxing, feeling free. So, come with us on a ramble through the trees...

This episode also includes a story by Dominic J MacMahon and a song from the debut album by Carousel band, The Black Bawlerz.
