12 Noon Sustainable East End
Are we running out of land for farming?
In a land where potatoes once covered the landscape, traditional farming on the east end has given way to luxury housing.
The Peconic Land Trust was started in 1983 to ensure the protection of Long Island’s working farms, natural lands, and heritage.
Francesca Rheannon speaks with John Halsey, President of the Peconic Land Trust about their farmland preservation efforts, the demise of traditional farms and how community supported agriculture was developed by the Land Trust.
This monthly program looks at issues of land use, water resources, transportation and the farming and fishing industries on the north and south forks of Long Island with host Francesca Rheannon.

7 PM Songtrails: Caroline Doctorow with folk and roots based music.
This month Caroline talks with musician and radio producer Jon Pikow, whose mother, singer Jean Ritchie is known as the mother of folk music. Pikow produces the long running “Folk Song Festival” with Oscar Brand on New York’s WNYC. He is helping to preserve Brand’s historical recordings, which have been purchased by the Library of Congress. Jean Ritchie learned to sing and play the dulcimer at her family’s Kentucky home. As a child she learned ballads handed down from generation to generation in her family. Ritchie’s song “The L&N Don’t Stop Here Anymore” is about the plight of unemployed miners, victims of the demise of underground coal mining. This week Songtrails features the music of Jean Ritchie with her own recordings and those of Johnny Cash, Michelle Shocked, Pikow and others.
Songtrails airs the first Saturday each month at 7:00 p.m.
