Axed program designed to help with climate change Local farmers, racing to figure out how to adapt to a rapidly changing climate that has buoyed pests and led to both droughts and flooding, thought help was on the way from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. But a major source of funding looks like it is about to disappear. The Hudson Valley is one of four regions in the country to receive a Climate Smart Commodities Grant through a USDA pilot program to make farms more resilient while improving air and water quality. Contracts had been signed, and planning was underway on eight local farms when the program was cut following the re-election of President Donald Trump. "We have partners who received letters out of the blue telling them that their government contracts - contracts that have been signed and that they were already doing work toward - have been canceled," said Megan Larmer of the Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming in Philipstown, which was overseeing the program. "Your government contract should be the most secure type of funding you could have." The Climate Smart Commodities Grant is one of many sources of funding for local farms that has been frozen or canceled in the past six weeks. Rocksteady Farms in Millerton had over $400,000 cut for projects such as farmer training, food access and water mitigation. A $2.5 million grant from the USDA to help Rocksteady and a dozen other farms build a food hub with barns and processing facilities is on hold. Farming is, by nature, a famously unpredictable undertaking, even without climate change. But financial cuts and freezes at the beginning of the growing season have added another layer of uncertainty, leading farmers to downgrade their plans and projections. It's also giving younger farmers second thoughts about the profession. "The fact that all this is sowing fear amongst all these organizations that are dedicated to the public good is psychologically damaging, and the repercussions of it are going to be felt for a long time," said Larmer. Among those affected is Jackie Matza, a Hudson Valley native who was living in Germany and graduated from Kiel University with a degree in sustainability. Speaking with her classmates from around the world made her realize how much her talents were needed back home. "The U.S. needs to catch up with the rest of the world in terms of climate change planning, resiliency planning, protecting land and protecting Indigenous communities," she said. "All of these things are routine in a lot of European countries. They have such a clear plan. Even the general public takes things like 'reduce, reuse, recycle' very seriously. Americans don't. It was a wake-up call for me to come back to my own country and be a part of actual change for the people who need it." Matza was hired in the fall to help administer the Climate Smart Commodities Grant at Glynwood as part of the Working Lands Climate Corps, a Biden-era program partly inspired by the Civilian Conservation Corps that helped build parks, plant trees and restore farms in the 1920s and '30s. After the November election, the program changed its name to the Working Lands Conservation Corps because of a Trump directive to eliminate any program with the word climate in it. That didn't help. The program has been canceled and Matza is out of a job that she traveled thousands of miles to take. Finding a new one will be difficult. "Anything similar to what I was doing here has either been cut or has thousands of other government employees who were just fired applying for it," she said. "The competition is quite fierce." Zach Wolf of EZ Farms in Columbia County is also out of a gig. He was helping to develop plans for the eight local farms taking part in the Climate Smart Commodities Grant, including his own. "It's a lot of things that farmers would like to do but just don't have the money," he said. The practices included planting cover crops, as well as integrating more trees to act as a...

On Thursday, February 13, climate activists disrupted the monthly meeting of the Public Service Commissioners in Albany. The immediate focus of the protest was the decision last Friday to approve the expansion of the Iroquois pipeline which builds out the fossil fuel infrastructure and will deliver more gas. The Hochul administration, while acknowledging that the expansion conflicts with the mandates of the state's climate law, argues that it is needed to ensure delivery of services in NYC especially in cold months. The protest also highlighted the need for the state to finally enact the NY Heat Act to ensure that all state agencies, starting with the PSC, comply with the state's climate law. We hear from a number of protestors, including Melissa from Food and Water Watch, who kicked off the protest by standing up to speak to the Commission as she was swarmed by PSC staff and state police; Michael Richardson of Third Act Upstate; Dr. Sandra Steingraber; Cary Gardner, Vice Chair of the NY Progressive Action Network; and Bill Kish of Millerton.

Episode 26 with Rhode Island based painter, Kirstin Lamb. We talk with Kirstin about her WOODS series in which we explore the layers of retranslation, interconnection and visual research to begin to know a place and capture the fleetingness of place. Kirstin studied painting at the Rhode Island School of Design, graduating with an MFA in 2005, and she received her AB in Visual Art and Literatures in English from Brown University in 2001.  Kirstin's work has been shown in venues across the country, recently showing with Gallery Naga in Boston, MA, Geary in Millerton, NY, Jennifer Terzian Gallery in Litchfield, CT, Cade Tompkins Projects in Providence, RI, the Spring Break Art Fair in NY, the Wassaic Project in Amenia, NY, the Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, MA and Providence College Galleries in Providence, RI, among others.  She has attended numerous residencies such as the Wassaic Project, and the Sam and Adele Golden Foundation.

Reverend Doctor Anna Crews Camphouse, United Methodist Clergywoman shares the wisdom and insight of the powerful women of the Bible. Her way of telling their stories provides an empowering and honoring model for women today.Anna is a native of Alabama who now resides in Connecticut, shepherding UMC congregations in Sharon, Lakeville and Millerton.  She is a Registered Nurse who has worked in Intensive Care, Long Term Acute Care, and ER.  Having earned both a Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry degrees from Claremont School of Theology, she is also an ordained elder in the California-Pacific Conference of the United Methodist Church.  She is grateful for her husband, David, and their beautiful children.  She has a strong interest in the intersections of pastoral care and evangelism, as well as religion and ecology.~~~From Dale Allen:Let Your Voice Be Heard • Let Your Heart Be Inspired!I was honored to be a part of a special project for the Parliament of the World's Religions Women's Task Force: conducting interviews inside the first-ever Women's Village. The invitation put forth at the Interview Suite was:  Let Your Voice be Heard! In total, I interviewed 71 women. I was truly fortunate to sit with women as they spoke so profoundly from their hearts about their faith-in-action toward the Parliament's themes of:  a call to conscience, the support of the human rights and dignity of women, and the care of the next generations of children (which, of course includes care of our earth). This series of interviews gave me a sense of peace and reassurance.  The women are activated, and their love cannot be stopped.  And I believe that you will find, as I did, that listening to women speak from their fierce hearts, empowers us as women to find our own voices and to take action from our hearts as well.   Please return each week for a new interview here.  And please help me share these women by subscribing! With love,DaleParliament Global Sisters Fundhttps://parliamentofreligions.org/womens-dignity/Interview Serieshttps://womenoftheworldunite.netDale Allenhttps://www.inourrightminds.netSupport This Video Series: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/daleallenthe Divine Feminine App Discover the Divine Feminine App - this is a tremendous resource to find Women's Circles and Events in you area, and online, as well as a breadth of resources to support you! https://thedfapp.com/v2/dashboard#a_aid=DaleAllenInOurRightMindsSupport the show

Our mission at MVP is to educate and guide individuals and families to promote and effect the best quality of life possible for their pets. This can be accomplished through a holistic perspective with consideration of each pet's physical, mental and emotional well-being. We look at health and disease on a continuum, involving physical, mental, and emotional aspects, all of which are influenced by diet, exercise and environmental factors. We work with our companion animal patients' families, within the parameters of their own reality (how much time they have, their philosophies about health, what they are able to provide in terms of food and exercise to make positive change). Carolyn Cannon, DVM, CAC Our tool box is large and diverse, enabling us to individualize care using western medicine (including diagnostic, surgical, and dental services), supplements, acupuncture, Chinese herbal formulas, chiropractic, nutritional counseling, laser therapy, rehabilitation, and training and behavior modification. We do this always with compassion and patience, treating every pet just as we would our own.

The works of William Shakespeare are legendary. Renowned in theatre and literature, the Bard's works have been spun into numerous plays, movies, and television adaptations. There's no counting how many Shakespearean themes have inspired modern-day creative media. Writer-director Keith Boynton's film “The Scottish Play” is a humorous and exciting take on Shakespeare's centuries of influence, and the passion creators and artists share for him.

He talks about the power of chosen families and a good bargain, using performance to heal, the life-changing experience of summer camp, and the support he feels from his local community for his life, work, and art. Vemilo is a pop performance artist whose purpose in life is to break through boundaries and stigmas to bring people together through music, fashion & visual journeys. Legend has it that he is the artistic love child of Lady Gaga & Prince. Vemilo's performances are an inclusive dance ministry of self-acceptance for all races, paces, cultures, and creeds.

Welcome back the great Eric Krasno! The Soulive guitarist, Lettuce co-founder, The Assembly bandleader, and producer extraordinaire. Kraz has been a very busy bee of late, forming a new band, releasing solo LP Always, plus marriage, fatherhood, a new crib and studio in LA, and hosting the popular Plus One podcast. Kraz's Fall 2019 appearance on the Upful LIFE pod was quite well-received, so with all the exciting developments in his life and career, it feels like the perfect time to get up to speed with all things Eric Krasno. Stick around at the end for The Music Cellar x Music Right campaign, an effort to raise funds for youth music education. DONATE HERE!  3:30  what's poppin & a special shoutout  14:00 - Welcome Back KRAZ! 21:30 - ERIC KRASNO interview 2:03:00 - The Music Cellar X Music Right w/ Jonny G of lespecial * thumbnail photo: Aaron Bradley for Suwannee Hulaween During the past couple of years, Krasno's life and career began to evolve in major ways. Kraz credits his young family as the revelation and motivation behind this latest collection of songs. A cross-country move after 2 decades defining Brooklyn. Soon thereafter, a swiftly-prolific musical partnership between Kraz and Bay Area-based producer/multi-instrumentalist Otis McDonald, then creating Eric Krasno & The Assembly. Always finds Eric Krasno at a peaceful, introspective place in life and his career. What began as some innocuous demos of a Dylan cover blossomed into a full-fledged coalescing of musical souls. The duo subsequently put together Eric Krasno & the Assembly, that includes Upful LIFE pod alumnus Wil Blades. We hear a bit about Kraz's forthcoming new D'Angelico signature model guitar, his fondness for Hawaii, what's next for Soulive, plus the nuts and bolts of going on tour in pandemic times.
