Local Lore and Locavores

In this episode, Rumpel and Frog explore some local lore from the hills of their hometowns in Connecticut. Rumpel does some research on the Makiawisug (aka Little People).  Meanwhile, Frog tells some local legends about a vagabond called Leather Man and the infamous Farmington resident (from back in the day) Will Warren. If you love hiking the local trails and exploring the many trap-rock dens that Connecticut River Valley has to offer, you will love hearing about these two unusual men who were said to inhabit those spaces.  After our storytelling, we turn our attention to all the tastes and treats of this bountiful season.  Rather than forage for stitching patterns, this time we look into indigenous recipes, local farms, and heirloom flavors to celebrate the season in true locavore fashion.  Bon Appetit!
