Description

Today we're speaking with two folx making big plans for the future. 

In Northampton, Smith College has just announce it's The Next 150 Pledge, wherein undergraduate students from families making less than $150K per year will have free tuition to the institution. We speak with current 12th president of the College Sarah Willie-LeBreton about this initiative through the lens of the alumnae  and current students, as well as the greater scope of higher education as federal pressure on such institutions continues to push. 

Then we head to Hampden where a young farmer is starting his journey amongst the younger agricultural generation. Farmer Clark's is the project of Clark Kedis, who is now tending to 40 acres over two parcels. With two farmstands and some innovative plans for the present and future, we hear about his first year with a farm of his very own.
