We head to Granby where a new barn rises from the ashes of a past February’s tragedy at Red Fire Farm. They are in the middle of replacing the facility that burned to the ground almost two years ago, and doing it in a way that will help them provide more to the community, and that incorporates more of Western Mass into its structure. We get a tour from Ryan and Sarah Voiland and hear about how you can help them finish the project. 

We’ll also hear about a new foundation seeking to get more folx to read more work from the global south. Interlink Publishing has just launched the non profit Interlink Foundation, which aims to inform and expand public discourse on issues of global significance and preserve and archive cultural heritage in the face of erasure and censorship.  We’ll speak with Michel and Hannah Moushabeck about this new endeavor, how it fits along with their current publishing house, and their upcoming holiday market where you can find out even more. 

Plus Mr. Universe, Kainaat Studios and Hampshire College’s Salman Hameed talks with us about returning to the asteroid Bennu, the important building blocks of life that can be found there, and what this could mean for us on earth and future explorations.
