We are back with a series of episodes highlighting the flavors of our region and the people behind the stove making it all happen, the market vendors of Rutland, Vermont's Farmers' Market. No where else in the region can you find such a diversity of cuisine and so many different personalities in the same place. In this episode of Root Words, we'll find comfort food, community, and a little slice of home with Victoria and Gustavo Covarrubias of Victoria's Authentic Mexican Food. Victoria and Gustavo didn't move to Vermont to open a food business, but an encounter with a welcoming neighbor inspired them to share their recipes with the community. Cooking from home doesn't just support Victoria and Gustavo's business. Victoria hopes it will also support her son Ernesto's sense of self. A home cooked meal can connect us to the places we grew up or places we've never been. It can connect us to loved ones and to strangers. Sharing ourselves through food builds community.

In June's VermontBiz, we take a close look at Rutland. From one side of the county to the other, its communities are buzzing with renewed energy and enthusiasm. Our conversations with community leaders indicate that the county's economy is steady and providing new opportunities but organizations are braced for federal funding cuts and potential losses. In Environmental news, Vermont missed its emissions goals, despite a drop in fossil fuel use and pollution levels. And a verdict is expected soon in the tree cutting case in Green Mountain National Forest. VermontBiz also gets into the summer spirit with a “Scoop” on Prouty's Parlor - a new mother-daughter owned and operated Ice-Cream shop located in Merchant's Row in Rutland!

We're on a break at the moment to get married and enjoy a bit of time either side of our wedding, but, to fill the gap, this is the first of two new compilation episodes containing a trio of stories from across our earlier series. We have entitled this episode Three Weird Tales because these are tales about such strange folkloric concepts, there's no easy to just explain them away.

On this week's episode of Local Legends, Martin is joined by the hosts of the Eerie Essex podcast, Ailsa Clarke and Bethan Briggs-Miller!Ailsa and Bethan have been at this here podcasting malarkey since the pandemic, and it's highly likely that you are already familiar with Eerie Essex. If you've never had the pleasure to listening to them though, well, you're in for a treat! In this episode Ailsa, Bethan and Martin talk about everything from lasagne to garden centres to demonic possession, getting lost in underground caves, and Matthew Hopkins, Witch Finder General.As you will hear, both Ailsa and Bethan have really interesting backgrounds and educational journeys to where they are today, but part of the reason we love Eerie Essex though is because of its warmth. Yes, episodes frequently contain ideas that might make you soil your britches with fear. And yes, the research Ailsa and Bethan engage in is really thorough. But, more than anything, it's the cosy, generous, very funny tone of their podcast that we find to spellbinding.If you want to know more about Eerie Essex and listen to the podcast, just search for Eerie Essex on your favoured podcast app and you'll find it. Alternatively, if you would like to know more about, and possibly visit, the East Anglian Folklore Centre, for which Bethan is serving as Co-Director, you can learn more about it at eastanglianfolklorecentre.co.ukFor now though, gather in close around the Three Ravens campfire for a conversation which ventures from caves full of smuggler's treasure to a forest full of nightmares, from rural to urban, and from the Roman era right up to the modern day.We really hope you enjoy it, and will be back on Monday with our brand new County Episode all about the history and folklore of Rutland!Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

In this episode, recorded mid-2024, we speak with Ted Rutland about the evolution of policing from the mid-20th century's professional model to the counterinsurgency urbanism that emerged in the 1970s and 80s in Canada. Rutland discusses how community policing, initially intended to bring police closer to communities through multicultural training and social services, became a strategy to win over parts of the community while waging a larger war against the rest. We delve into some of the historical shifts in policing largely as a response to radical movements and urban rebellions. We also examine the role of progressive urban governments in maintaining counterinsurgency policing, the impact of neoliberal policies, and the influence of white nationalism in shaping urban governance. Ted and I further explore the concept of counterinsurgency urbanism, showing how it has become central to not just policing but city-making processes in its entirety where supportive and punitive measures are blended in order to maintain control over urban populations. Ted Rutland is an associate professor of geography and urban studies at Concordia University in Montreal. His research explores how capitalism and white supremacy intersect in contemporary urban politics, planning, and policing. He is the author of Displacing Blackness: Planning, Power, and Race in Twentieth-Century Halifax and the co-author (with Maxime Aurélien) of Out to Defend Ourselves: A History of Montreal's First Haitian Street Gang.

Town Meeting Day is a method of direct civic engagement and and a longstanding community building tradition. It's a time when Vermont's 247 municipalities each decide how they'll spend their local budgets. We begin by hearing about some significant votes taking place around the state. Vermont Public's Nina Keck talks about the Rutland mayoral race, and reporter Lexi Krupp explains Lyndon's vote to keep Town Meeting an in-person affair, rather than switch to Australian ballot.Then, we dig into the history of town meetings in Vermont with Middlesex town moderator Susan Clark. She is the co-author of many books about democracy in Vermont, including All Those in Favor: Rediscovering the Secrets of Town Meeting and Community. She discusses the times when Vermont towns voted on national and international issues that extended far beyond the purview of local budgets. Then, we share a 1982 NPR story by Leslie Breeding about a town meeting in Strafford. Broadcast live on Tuesday, March 4, 2025, at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.

T.O. got out of prison in Rutland a couple weeks ago, after a six and a half year bid. I met T.O. through my private investigator friend Susan Randall in May, 2017. He'd been a client of hers in a federal public defender case. T.O.'s been in and out of jail his whole adult life, and it's become a kind of tradition for us to get together and talk when he gets out of jail. We don't talk about his crimes. Mostly we talk about what it's like to start over…over and over. Now T.O. is in his mid forties, and this time he was released in the middle of a Vermont winter.
Richie is joined by Ryan Cristian and Nick Hamilton. US President Donald Trump has claimed that he plans to take possession of Gaza and redevelop it. Trump even said he'd buy it. From whom? Shouldn't the Palestinian people have a say in their future? To discuss this and more Richie is joined by broadcast journalist Ryan Cristian. www.thelastamericanvagabond.comThe former home of BBC's Gardeners' World could close after claims that plans to build a solar power plant next door would ruin the tranquillity of the gardens. Barnsdale Gardens, in Rutland, was established some 40 years ago by the horticulturist and broadcaster Geoff Hamilton, who presented the show between 1983 and 1996. Geoff's son, Nick, took over the care of Barnsdale Gardens after the death of his father in 1996 and has run it ever since.However, Nick says he could be forced to close the gardens if plans to build a solar power plant go ahead on 200 acres of land next door, adding that the tranquillity of the gardens could be shattered by the farm's noisy machinery. Nick came on the show to discuss it with Richie https://barnsdalegardens.co.uk/
