September 2, 2026–Corby Kummer joins Boston Public Radio for a conversation anchored by a tribute to Wendell Berry, the farmer-poet and “grandfather of the slow food movement” who died this summer at 92. Kummer shares personal memories from visits to Berry’s Kentucky cabin, recommends the audiobook The Need to Be Whole (narrated by devoted fan Nick Offerman), and traces Berry’s influence on today’s push for urban farming. (Hint: visit Boston’s own Fenway Victory Gardens, the longest continuously running victory garden in the country!) The conversation rounds out with a lesson on apple grafting just in time for New England orchard season, and a look at how Canada’s retaliatory tariffs, including on the potash fertilizer American farmers depend on, could push up food prices next year.
