  • Résumé

  • Are you ready to journey through the heart of the Connecticut River Valley? We promise you an enriching experience on this episode as we delve into the challenges facing inland communities due to changing weather patterns with our esteemed guests, Steve Gephart from DEEP, and Judy Preston from Gardening for Good. They provide unique insights into floodproofing and relocating infrastructure to safeguard our towns, along with handy advice to keep your garden thriving in severe weather.

    Prepare to be captivated as we voyage back to the Packet Ship Era of the 1800s - a historical time of massive immigration to the US. Together with Lamar Lamont, we shed light on the grueling conditions immigrants endured and the crucial part played by the representative of the Cheney Ivory Factory on Ellis Island. Then, let's marvel at the remarkable resilience of the American Alligator that has staged a comeback, thanks to the US government's crackdown on poaching. We also pay tribute to the oft-overlooked world of nonfiction literature and its myriad captivating stories.

    As we wrap up, join us in an enlightening conversation with state archaeologist Sarah Sportman, who emphasizes the importance of understanding our past to cherish our present and plan for the future.
