Nothing much happens: bedtime stories to help you sleep

Originally Aired: October 10th, 2021 (Season 8, Episode 10) Our story tonight is called The Pumpkin Farmer, and it’s a story about a family tradition and the harvest that comes after a season of careful tending. It’s also about a long table set out beside the barn with every chair taken, a flannel shirt with the sleeves rolled up, and living in step with the seasons.

Our story tonight is called Crows and Candles, and it is the next in this month’s special Halloween episodes. While it isn’t at all a scary story, it is meant to be a bit of balm for those that are grieving, and if that feels too heavy for tonight, that’s understandable, might I recommend The Leaf House from a week and half ago in your queue. Tonight's story is about a walk on a misty day and a place at the bottom of the hill where the gate squeaks when you push it open. It’s also about rosemary and gifts brought by birds, the magic of speaking the names of those we love, and a choice to make friends wherever you go. We give to a different charity each week, and this week we are giving to Peaceful Valley Donkey Rescue [donkeyrescue.org]. Providing a safe and loving environment to domestic donkeys.  Subscribe for ad-free, bonus, and extra-long episodes now, as well as ad-free and early episodes of Stories from the Village of Nothing Much!

Our story tonight starts our month of Halloween stories. It’s called Grey Cat and Grimoire, and it takes us into the cozy curios shop where a scarf is being knitted and a very old book with a green velvet cover sits on a stand. It’s also about lavender in the mop water, the domino effect of good deeds, rain dripping through maple leaves, and something hidden waiting to be found.
