September 2, 2026: Due Course

We head to the fields to see where the highland cows venture in South Deerfield at Roaming Farm. There we meet co-owner Julie Chalfant  who talks about her family’s journey to cattle raising on their 75 acres, the challenges and benefits of their unbelievably cute cows including how climate change impacts their herd, and how important local beef has been to the local community. We get an impromptu Live Music Wednesday from multi-instrumentalist duo Larry and Joe, who’ll bring their multi American sounds to the Parlor Room in Northampton tonight, and get a small update on the changes for their music since we last saw them at the Green River Festival for llanera legend Larry Bellorín and Grammy nominated Joe Troop . Plus summertime funtime interim word nerd and Jazz a la mode host Peter Sokolowski shows us one of the precursors to the dictionary’s digital age, with a whole set of definitions organized backwards, and learn about how that keys into the ways we now search for words on their website.
