This week’s episode of Inside Appalachia is packed with stories from across central Appalachia, featuring creative people who are finding ways to address a wide-range of problems. We’ll hear how urban farmers in Pittsburgh are helping fight food insecurity, and how two musicians in North Carolina are finding help for people in addiction. We’ll learn why homelessness is on the rise in parts of Appalachia, and why people who have been through recent tornadoes in Kentucky need mental health assistance . We’ll also hear how climate change is changing  the ski industry in Appalachia, and how ski resorts are getting creative with snow-making. And we’ll meet a West Virginia-raised punk rocker who wrote a novel that’s part thriller, part commentary on the drug epidemic.
