from The Fabulous 413 · host Monte Belmonte & Kaliis Smith

Today on the Fabulous 413, we’re turning dreams into reality, which is a tall order, but sometimes, the magic just happens. In Northampton which has had a particular hole in its culinary landscape. We head to the future home of Lichter and Levin Jewish Delicatessen to hear from the music stewarding duo at the helm of this endeavor, the eponymous Emily Lichter and Ben Levin, as well as their talented chef, Alex Hanley, and familiar face to their location, Robin Wynn, at their downtown digs about the joke that started it all, and the legacy they’re accidentally continuing. Oh and a quick taste test of some of their delicious menu items!We'll also head to Chicopee where Evan Nawrocki of Nightjar Farm turned almost an acre of land at his grandmother’s house into a growing farm operation and we head to his burgeoning homestead to hear how this very young farmer got into the business, along with CISA executive director Jennifer Core.And our very favorite of the Baystate’s unique geological features is once again up in the legislature to become the official sedimentary structure of Massachusetts. Professor Richard Little joins us to talk about how you can write in support of them becoming official, and about the JAMB-oree being held this weekend to celebrate them.
