Episode 235 with David Higbee, Greenport Then and Now!

from Floyd Memorial Library Podcast · host Floyd Memorial Library Podcast

Today, I’m joined by David Higbee, who was born and raised in Greenport and whose roots in the village run deep. In our conversation, we talk about his family ancestry, his memories of growing up in Greenport, and the path that eventually took him away.We also explore his return in the 1990s and how the village had changed in his absence, what felt familiar, what didn’t and his reflections on what Greenport has become today.Along the way, we also touch on his involvement with the North Fork’s “Tuesday Crew,” a group of local volunteers who have spent decades restoring and preserving historic sites across the region, quietly shaping the very landscape they call home.It’s a conversation grounded in memory, history, and a clear-eyed look at change.
