It’s veteran’s day, a holiday started after the end of world war I, the current evolution of Armistice Day has grown to encompass and honor those who’ve served in all of the conflicts since. 

But the change in the way those wars get waged in the following century has left more of a mark on both the way we approach military theaters, and those that enter them to fight. 

We chat with the director Catie Foertsch and executive producer Cptn. Tommy Furlong of “What I Want You to Know” a documentary that interviews combat veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts that have plagued this millenia about their expectations, experiences, and outcomes, before you have two opportunities to see this film in Great Barrington and Northampton this coming Saturday. 

We’ll also head to a tiny corner of Western Mass that sorta isn’t Springfield to see how a neighborhood CDC is helping more produce to be produced. Wellspring Cooperative took a quarter acre of ungrowable land, and built a greenhouse on top of it that’s bringing herbs and lettuces to the four counties and we’ll speak with Fred Rose and Farm manager Clive about what happens at Wellspring Harvest.
