Dying to learn how to preserve food, keep bees, meditate or craft string from bark? Please join us on the radio today as we highlight the 6th Ann Arbor ReSkilling Festival with organizer Rebecca Streng. Also in the studio is the fabulous Nate Ayers, a local permaculturist and educator.
Just in time for the mass exodus from Ann Arbor, SNRE’s own Shelie Miller, a specialist in life cycle assessment and energy, shares insights on sustainable transit. Beyond the typical modes, she entertains our questioning of teleportation as surely the MOST sustainable transit form! 😉 Turkey man and local farmer John Harois is also in the studio to tell us about his magnificent birds. We hear all about why Kat’s dad drives from afar for these delectable pavos. A turkey slayer also calls in with the gruesome details. It is hot in here!
The righteous Laura Miesler joined us in the studio to chat about the upcoming, also righteous, Homegrown Festival(!) Listen to that conversation here…along with some great tunes by bands that will be at the festival. How can you listen and not get pumped about this event? Additionally in this episode: learn what to do when vehicles vacate city streets, and why Brazil nuts are so dang good for you.
Listen in and let John Harnois of Harnois Farms put you in the mood for the most delicious secular holiday of the year — THANKSGIVING! John hand-raises happy, healthy, and sometimes heritage turkeys, chickens, geese, and ducks. Birds so well-lived, you can taste the love!
Global economic meltdown got you down? Then listen in and let David Klingenberger CFO (Chief Fermentation Officer) of Ann Arbor’s own The Brinery stimulate your inner economy.
After an exxxtraspecial call-in from from America’s Next Top Political Pundit (and hopefully IHIH’s newest political correspondent) Colin Warren, we crunch on turnips, groove on some veggie-themed jams and talk fermentation, local produce, and local business with David — a man who loves pickles even more than we do.
Is all this talk of flavorful, crunchy, organic, local pickled vegetables making your mouth water? Then be sure to check out The Brinery @ the Ann Arbor Farmer’s Market Wednesdays and Saturdays. Your guts will thank you.
