STORY OF AMERICA — Present-day New England is a region comprising six states in the Northeastern United States: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. English plans to colonize this part of America began to take concrete form at the turn of the 17th century. The first expedition to set out from England was led by Bartholomew Gosnold (1571-1607), an English sea captain who led the first recorded European expedition to Cape Cod, Provincetown, Cuttyhunk Island, and Martha's Vineyard.

Some hot weather and a spur of the moment decision turned into an excellent 24 hours of father-and-sons fly fishing time. In this episode, I talk about the great time that my boys and I had in Manchester, Vermont. The occasion was the American Museum of Fly Fishing's Summer Festival. There were vendors, exhibits, and competitions. (And there was food.) Needless to say, a good time was had by all. This is the kind of event that isn't fly fishing... but it is a quintessential to fly fishing culture.  Hear about our time and make plans to attend something similar near you.

In Episode 409 Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger explore the ruins of Ricker Basin, a Waterbury, Vermont, ghost town that survived just over a century before a massive 1927 storm ravaged the region, killing over 50 people and leaving behind a village that was no longer viable. Today the cellar holes, cemetery, and a dilapidated structure is all that stands as a testament that someone was once here.    See more here: https://ournewenglandlegends.com/podcast-409-the-ghost-town-of-ricker-basin/    Listen ad-free plus get early access and bonus episodes at: https://www.patreon.com/NewEnglandLegends        Check out Jeff's new underground publication Shadow Zine! https://shadowzine.com/        Listen to Ray's Local Raydio! https://localraydio.com/    Pre-order the new book by Jeff Belanger and photographer Frank Grace: Wicked Strange: Your Guide to Ghosts, Monsters, Oddities, and Urban Legends from New England - https://amzn.to/3IReeCt   

Starting this summer, Vermont farmers are some of the first in the nation to face major restrictions on neonicotinoids — a kind of pesticide widely used to treat corn and soy plants. In part, that's because neonics are killing honeybees.Quebec has had a similar law on the books for years.

Welcome to Season 16! We're kicking off a brand-new season with a fantastic lineup of episodes ahead, and I'm so glad you're here.It's been a wonderful summer in New Haven—I spent time with family, snuck away to Vermont, and reconnected with friends.

I had the honor of presenting during a plenary session alongside Claudia Taylor Overstrom, chair of Yale's Parents Leadership Council.Claudia and her husband Gunnar have led the PLC for the past year. A Yale alumna with a J.D. from Georgetown Law Center, Claudia also serves as President of the Society of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.In this first episode of the season—recorded live—we talk about how we work with parents, what partnership really looks like, and why these relationships matter.Let's dive in!

Within Brims Skin. What'cha Gonna Do. #322 -- The gang is at it again. Brimstone is joined by his wing-man Alex DaPonte, Meg Suss and Brim's wife Danielle as they chat about the unfortunate passing of Dee from the old series What's Happening, and then they discuss the 6 foot bear wearing a Brimstone Tee sitting in the corner of the studio – apparently, Vermont Teddy Bear sent over a ginormous bear that he'll be giving away on social media shortly. They discuss the new specialty coffee that Brim is doing with The Cup Coffeehouse, a new collab coming shortly with Java Doodles, and Alex's 2am blunders. They discuss 80th birthdays, Library of Congress deleting parts of the Constitution, and Brim ends with a fun joke. Brim explains what gets Within Brim's Skin.

In this episode, Michael speaks with Rachelle Gould, Associate Professor at the Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources and an Environmental Fellow at the Gund Institute at the University of Vermont. Rachelle is a prominent and productive scholar on several topics, and one of the main ones she has written about is relational values, which were introduced to represent a different way of relating to the environment that hadn't been expressed by the more traditional dichotomy of intrinsic and extrinsic value. Relational values have become very popular within academia and have become a focal point of publications by the The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, or IPBES, which Rachelle describes as the IPCC for Biodiversity. Rachelle was also a Lead Author on the recent IPBES Values Assessment. During their conversation, Michael asks Rachelle about some concerns he has about relational values, primarily that it seemed to be so popular that it was becoming a way of labeling anything that we like as relational, and secondly, that it had become a new panacea: something that doesn't present trade-offs but which we should simply want more of, regardless of context. They discuss these concerns as well as the significant value that Rachelle sees in a concept that can better represent how human beings can and do relate to the natural world.

How Canton Apples and Frosty Twig Fused Two Brands into One In New York's “North of Upstate” region, in the town of Canton is the Canton Apples production building. It is now also home of a partnership shaping the local cider scene. Owner Joel Howie and cider maker Dan Gallagher live just a mile apart, and their skills mesh perfectly. Joel brings over a decade of experience growing apples, pressing sweet cider, and creating value-added products. Dan, a passionate fermenter, was ready to move beyond hobby scale when the two connected. Two Brands, One Vision Under Canton Apples & Cider, LLC, two product lines take shape: Canton Apples – approachable, consistent ciders for everyday enjoyment. Joel Howie Frosty Twig – small-batch, specialty ciders showcasing unique apples, fruits, and wild fermentation. Dan Gallagher Production takes place in a purpose-built facility designed for growth, with future plans for a taproom overlooking the orchard. Orchard Practices & Apple Diversity Between their combined orchards, Joel and Dan care for over 250 apple varieties — many planted by Bill McKentley of St. Lawrence Nurseries. These heritage and cold-hardy apples thrive in Zone 4, and every apple grown is put to use. When supplies run short, apples are sourced from other New York regions. Cider Making Approach Ciders range from wild-fermented pet-nats to cultured yeast ferments for consistency. Specialty ciders include Turkey Tree Wild Berry Pear cider Most ciders age 9–10 months before release, allowing flavors to develop naturally.

Brattleboro and the town of Hinsdale have been working on a plan to rehabilitate two historic bridges, but now the New Hampshire town says it does not want to support the project

As President Trump orders federal troops into the streets of Washington, D.C. to “do whatever the hell they want” to stop crime, Sen. Peter Welch is traveling across Vermont to share what he insists is the real news that Trump is trying to divert attention from.Welch has tallied the impact of President Trump's economic policies and determined that they will cost families in Vermont an average of $2,120 each year. He says that 99.5% of all Vermont families will lose money as a result of Trump's tariffs and his budget reconciliation bill, which the Senate narrowly passed in early July after Vice President J.D. Vance cast a tie-breaking vote.The Vermont Conversation caught up with Welch at Snow Farm Vineyard in South Hero, where Welch held a listening session attended by about 150 people.Welch conceded that even he is “shocked” by the devastating impact of what he calls the “big ugly bill.” His office released a list of those impacts, including:As many as 45,000 Vermonters will lose health care As much as $1.7 billion in lost revenue for Vermont hospitals Over 26,000 Vermonters will lose access to discounted premiums on the Affordable Care Act marketplace 6,000 Vermonters are at risk of losing SNAP assistance Annual energy bills for Vermonters will rise by $290 The state will lose 1,400 jobs by ending green energy projects Mortgage payments will rise by $1,060 annually 78,000 Vermonters with student loans will pay $3,694 more over the course of their loansThese cuts will shred the country's social safety net, undoing social programs that date back to President Roosevelt's New Deal and President Lyndon Johnson's Great Society.“There (were) a lot of lies that were peddled by the administration and frankly by many of my Republican colleagues about how great the bill was," Welch said, while "ignoring the concrete reality” of how it will hurt the people they represent. Welch said Trump's budget will add about $4.5 trillion to the federal deficit.In a rare criticism of Governor Phil Scott, Welch slammed the governor's recent decision to provide the Trump administration sensitive data on thousands of Vermonters who receive nutrition assistance. “We should not be providing the private information of our citizens to the federal government,” said Vermont's junior senator. “We should be protecting the privacy of Vermont citizens.”All together, Welch said Trump's actions are part and parcel of an authoritarian push. He accused the president of employing a “dual standard” around crime in the nation's capital. “You had a riot that was inspired and incited by President Trump and those folks who were intent on doing real violence and hurt many of these law enforcement officers have been pardoned by the president.” Welch was in Congress hiding from mobs of Trump supporters who rampaged through the Capitol on January 6, 2021.Abroad, Sen. Welch was also sharply critical of Israel's war in Gaza. Since the October 7, 2023 attack in which Hamas killed some 1,200 Israelis and took hostage some 250 soldiers and civilians, Israel has killed over 61,000 Palestinians, detained about 3,000 people — none of whom have been charged with a crime — and waged a campaign of starvation against a desperate population. In response, Welch has called for a ceasefire, the return of hostages, and a cutoff of sales of offensive weapons to Israel.“Being against starvation is not at all being against the endurance of the democratic Jewish state of Israel. It's about being against starvation and that starvation being inflicted by the authority of the state.”American democracy is “fragile," Welch said.

The Montshire Museum in Norwich has what's known as a wind phone in its 100-acre forest for people who want to speak to lost loved ones. Plus, State regulators review budgets from Vermont hospitals with a requirement to keep expenses and insurance rates at no more than a three percent hike from last year, construction begins on forty new affordable housing units in Burlington, a federal lawsuit seeks to overturn a new New Hampshire law that denies state funding for schools with DEI programs, and a new poll shows more young people in Quebec want the province to become independent.

Lyndia Downie has served as Pine Street Inn's President & Executive Director since 2000 and on Pine Street's staff for 40 years, working in roles throughout the organization. As a result of her leadership and vision, Pine Street is now the largest provider of housing with support services for individuals moving out of homelessness in New England, with 1,100 units of housing and a major housing expansion underway. Her collaboration with other key agencies, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and the City of Boston has brought the population of unsheltered individuals to just over three percent of the overall homeless population. To place that in context, in San Francisco, a city of similar size and high housing costs, the unsheltered homeless rate is over 50 percent.With a $98 million budget and services provided at four shelters and 39 housing locations in Boston and Brookline, Pine Street supports over 2,100 individuals each day, with programs including street outreach, emergency shelter, supportive housing and job training. iCater, a Pine Street Inn social enterprise, is a successful catering business providing meals to a variety of organizations and job training to individuals moving back into the workforce.Looking ahead, Lyndia is guiding Pine Street's bold plan to add 400-500 new units, with 250 already in development. The expansion is driven by large-scale new developments that will have a powerful impact on ending homelessness. This expanded vision for housing is largely supported by a transformative $15 million commitment from the Yawkey Foundation.With her keen understanding of the complex causes of homelessness and proven methods to solve it, Lyndia is a frequently requested speaker who regularly serves as a policy advisor at the city, state and federal levels. Lyndia served on former Mayor Walsh's Advisory Council on Homelessness and was a member of the task force that helped shape the City of Boston's action plan to end veteran and chronic homelessness. She also serves on a number of policy advisory committees to the state's Executive Office of Health and Human Services, and has presented on Pine Street Inn's strategic housing expansion at the annual conference of the National Alliance to End Homelessness in Washington, D.C.Additionally, Lyndia has been tapped to serve on a number of committees and boards, including the Massachusetts Council of Human Service Providers, the Massachusetts Housing & Shelter Alliance, the Board of Advisors of Eastern Bank and the Franklin Square House Foundation. She was also named a Barr Fellow through the Barr Foundation's program to honor nonprofit leaders in the region and has co-taught a course on solutions to homelessness at the Harvard Kennedy School.In 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023, Lyndia was selected as one of the top 100 women leaders in Massachusetts by The Commonwealth Institute in partnership with The Boston Globe. Boston Magazine has named Lyndia “One of the 100 Most Influential Bostonians,” and she has received the Massachusetts Council of Human Services' CEO Award of Excellence for her leadership. In addition, Pine Street Inn was honored with Bank of America's Neighborhood Builders award, which recognizes innovation, excellence and leadership among nonprofits across the country.Lyndia received the Henry L. Shattuck City Champion Award from the Boston Municipal Research Bureau and was named the “Most Innovative Person in the Massachusetts Non-Profit Sector” by The Boston Globe. Lyndia has also received the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce Pinnacle Award, the New England Women's Leadership Award, and the University of Vermont's 2020 Alumni Association Award.

On this episode, we're going deep into the forest with Michael Farrell, Co-Founder of The Forest Farmers.  Michael and his team are managing over 10,000 acres of forest in New York and Vermont to produce what they believe to be the most regenerative sweetener on the planet. You'll hear how The Forest Farmers' keep forests diverse and thriving, why maple syrup is nutritionally and environmentally superior to more popular, cheap sweeteners, and how brands can integrate maple ingredients into everything from beverages to baked goods. We unpack how maple trees become a full suite of Regenerative Organic Certified® products — from sap to syrup to sugar — and how those ingredients are now powering a new generation of regenerative brands like Recoup, Wild Orchard, and Alec's Ice Cream.  Michael also shares why only 1% of U.S. maple trees are tapped today, and how shifting consumer demand can change that.

Jamaica Kincaid began writing for The New Yorker in 1974, reporting about life in the magazine's home city. She was a young immigrant from Antigua, then a British colony; she had been sent to New York—against her wishes—to work as a nanny. Soon began a love affair with New York's literary scene. “I had to change my name,” she tells David Remnick, “because Elaine Potter Richardson could not write about Elaine Potter Richardson. But Jamaica Kincaid could write about Elaine Potter Richardson.” Kincaid went on to write books about her family; about the dissolution of a marriage; about Antigua, and what colonialism feels like to people on a small island; and later gardening, which she took up with a passion after moving to Vermont. She once said, “Everything I write is autobiographical, but none of it is true in the sense of a court of law. You know, a lie is just a lie. The truth, on the other hand, is complicated.” Kincaid's new book, “Putting Myself Together,” is a collection of pieces that span almost half a century in print, and includes her first published piece in The New Yorker—an account of the West Indian-American Day Parade of 1974.
