In this "Earth Day" episode:
 
Hank Swain recounts the day Salt Creek flowed the wrong way…and how it sparked environmental stewardship in Brown County; Our featured musical artist Pat Webb was actually AT the first Earth Day event!; Artist June Wolpert uses recycled fabrics to create quilts in the pioneer tradition; Bruce Clegg deconstructs the science behind solar panels; The Local Farm Report grills Bill Land on the Farmers' Market and how to keep varmints out of your compost with kitty litter and whiskey.
