Today we put our efforts where our segments have been by heading up to the last of the 978 W. Mass towns we hadn’t visited yet and lend our efforts to the Morning chores at Hettie Belle Farm in Warwick. The farm is the other home of CISA executive director Jennifer Core, who shows us the ins and outs of caring for their many chickens, cattle, and copious amounts of sheep many of whom have just given birth, from feeding to watering, and even getting to attach a brand new lamb to its mother, we get an inside hands on look at the effort it truly takes to keep a working solvent farm going in Massachusetts.
And in Easthampton, we’ll take a look at the friendships of women through the lens of a century. Enchanted April is a heartfelt comedy of connection centering 4 women each of whom steps a bit outside of their comfort zone in Edwardian Europe. We speak with Michael Budnick, Louise Krieger and Katerina Midtskogen of the Easthampton Theater Company that’ll perform the work this weekend and next about how the work resonates a century after its setting.
