In this debut episode, we explore the unassuming strength of baler twine — that coarse string found on farms and in sheds across the countryside. What starts as a simple farm tool unravels into something more: a symbol of resilience, resourcefulness, and rural memory. Featuring stories from farmers, a fiber artist who weaves with twine, and a poet who finds beauty in the everyday, this episode ties together the past and present with threads both literal and emotional.
