The Story Walking Radio Hour with Wendy Fachon: Too Many Deer

Too Many Deer
Guest Professor Bernd Blossey, Department of Natural Resources and the Environment, Cornell University
Across northeast America, overwhelming numbers of native white tail deer, with their voracious and indiscriminate appetites, are reducing forest biodiversity and preventing healthy forest regeneration. While farms and orchards must build high fences to protect their crops, how can we defend and restore our private and municipal properties and the rest of our vulnerable landscape? Environmental scientists, like Professor Bernd Blossey, are working toward solutions. Blossey works in the Department of Natural Resources and the Environment at Cornell University.
Born and raised in northern Germany, Blossey graduated from Kiel University with degrees in ecology, entomology and limnology. His main focus areas are assessments of how invasive plants, earthworms and deer impact native organisms, which include plants, amphibians, birds and insects. Blossey directs Cornell's College of Agricultural and Life Science's Ecology and Management of Invasive Plants Program and chairs the Cornell Deer Management Committee. His overall objective is to increase the conservation values of all lands through development of best management practices. This particular episode will help listeners see their landscape with new eyes.

The Story Walking Radio Hour with Wendy Fachon: Coastal Learning and Stewardship

Coastal Learning and Stewardship
Guest Maureen Dewire, Education Coordinator, Narragansett Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve
Numerous animal species rely on salt marshes for nesting and breeding. Most of the fish and shellfish eaten in the United States, including herring, crabs and oysters, complete at least part of their life cycles in salt marsh estuaries. Over time, coastal development, introduction of invasive species, over-fishing, dams and climate change have led to a decline in the health of estuaries.
The Narragansett Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, is one of 30 National Estuarine Research Reserves located around the country, established to provide long-term protection of coastal lands so they can serve as platforms for research, education and recreation. The Reserve’s education sector strives to cultivate awareness, knowledge, and appreciation for Narragansett Bay’s natural resources through a variety of place-based experiences for all ages. Education Coordinator Maureen Dewire shares stories about the Reserve's education programs and describes how she collaborates with others to teach about local research, impacts of climate change and land stewardship.
Dewire grew up in Stonington, CT and made her way to North Carolina where she attended UNC-Wilmington, receiving her Bachelor’s degree in Marine Biology and a Master’s degree in Environmental Studies. She worked for a non-profit, Bald Head Island Conservancy, as the Director of Education and Senior Naturalist for 8 years where she was lucky enough to spend her days surveying beaches, kayaking through tidal creeks, and hiking in the maritime forest while delivering programs on sea turtles, alligators, birds and coastal ecosystems. Her love of New England brought her back in 2011 when she obtained the position of Education Coordinator position at the Reserve…and she hasn’t looked back since!

The Story Walking Radio Hour with Wendy Fachon: Warrior Parenting

For Our Children: Warrior Parenting
Guest Janet Demeter, Founder of Jack's Angels Foundation and Host of Childhood Cancer Talk Radio
Fifty percent of children in the U.S. have chronic health issues, and among these, cancer is the leading cause of death among children by disease. Underlying this diseased state of our children are environmental toxins, which enter a body and accumulate over time to create metabolic deficiencies and imbalances. Such toxins exist in our air, water, soil and food. Parents are stepping up to identify these problems, raise awareness and advocate for systemic change. They are doing so in many different capacities; some are focusing on prevention and others are searching for therapies that are better than “standard of care” - less toxic, safer and more effective.
In this episode, Janet Demeter shares her son's brain cancer story and the leadership role she took on within the childhood cancer community after losing Jack in 2012. Janet has learned a lot about cancer research, the shortcomings of the pediatric cancer care system and government policy, as well as what we need to do to be more effective. Janet is the founder of Jack's Angels Foundation, host of Childhood Cancer Talk Radio and a lead advocate for pediatric cancer awareness. She one of many parents who have been creating greater visibility and encouraging a higher level of funding for research into cures for diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) and pediatric cancers in general. Janet leads the effort to pass a resolution designating the 17th day in May as ‘‘DIPG Awareness Day,’’ which cites DIPG as the most compelling example of pediatric cancer.
This September 2024 interview coincides with Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, CureFest 2024, a new book release, DIPG: Eternal Hope Versus Terminal Corruption, and the heightened focus on children's chronic health trends happening in national politics. The DIPG book is an experiential narrative published by Dean and Wendy Fachon about their son's cancer journey, and below is a link to a must-see video interview with the Fachons – “What is DIPG?”

The Story Walking Radio Hour with Wendy Fachon: Local Seafood Year-round

Local Seafood Year-round: Eating with the Seasons
Guests Molly Moran-Ogren, Jordyn Kastlunger and Alexander Esterly, RI Seafood Marketing Collaborative
By purchasing and eating local seafood, we help sustain regional fisheries and local fishing businesses. The Seafood Marketing Collaborative (SMC) is actively engaged in a host of programs and activities aimed at fostering increased awareness of, interest in and demand for local seafood products. In addition to developing and trademarking the RI Seafood logo, the Collaborative has launched a robust website, which serves as the focal point for the marketing campaign. The RI Seafood Brand is at the heart of the local food scene in the Ocean State. It guarantees seafood is fresh and landed in right here in Rhode Island, and it supports the local economy and local traditions. Consumers can find RI Seafood products in grocery stores and restaurants and at festivals and farmers' markets during every season.
Molly Moran-Ogren, SMC Chair, was born in Juneau, Alaska, and is a fourth-generation commercial fisherman. Understanding that commercial fishing is a livelihood dependent on the resource, and wanting to keep her family’s legacy alive, Molly shifted her career from fishing to advocating for all parts of the seafood industry. She has a Bachelor of Science from the University of Nevada, a Juris Doctor from Roger Williams University School of Law, and a Master’s Degree in Marine Affairs from the University of Rhode Island. As the appointed Chair of the SMC, Molly oversees the day-to-day programmatic initiatives, budget, grant proposals, collaborative coordination and meetings, and more.
Jordyn Kastlunger, SMC Marketing Specialist, manages the social media pages of RI Seafood, publishes the newsletter, and works closely with local fishermen for features. She comes from a third-generation fishing family in San Diego and grew up working as a deckhand for her father and assisting in the direct sales of their catch to the community. Jordyn graduated from San Diego State University with a bachelor’s degree in Communications and a minor in Sustainability. She has attended a variety of conferences and meetings both on a national and international level speaking about the importance and success of commercial fishing and sustainable seafood sources.
Alex Esterly, RI Seafood’s Marketing Intern focuses on community engagement by representing the collaborative at local seafood festivals and farmers’ markets. His love for all things seafood comes from the time he spent fishing as a child on the Jersey Shore with his grandpa. Alex is originally from Pennsylvania and made his way to the Ocean State to attend the University of Rhode Island where he received his bachelor's degrees in Environmental Economics and Marine Affairs, and his master's degree in Environmental Economics.
These three guests share their amazing background stories, detai their experiences working together in the SMC and guide us toward eating more sustainably.

The Story Walking Radio Hour with Wendy Fachon: Living in Today's World

Living in Today's World and Longevity
Guest Michael (Mikey) Peres, Entrepreneur, Software Engineer, Journalist
By embracing a natural lifestyle, we can improve our own health outcomes, our quality of life, our longevity and our success. This is exemplified by a Blue Zone setting, an environment so natural, clean and simple that a remarkably large percent of its population lives to 100 years or older, in good health. Most of our lives are hardly Blue Zone simple, however, because most of us live in large complex societies within a rapidly evolving technologically-driven world.
Michael (Mikey) Peres. integrates skills as a software engineer, author and media personality to show us how to live our best lives. He is known for founding various tech, media, and news startups. He holds degrees in computer science, mathematics, and Jewish studies, and is now pursuing a degree in bio-medical engineering, with a keen interest in longevity.
This episode covers a lot of ground as we explore longevity and quality of life. Mikey talks about discovering your best learning style, working at what you love, eliminating processed sugars from your diet, fasting for longevity and embracing new technologies to enhance your job and your life.

The Story Walking Radio Hour with Wendy Fachon: Learning Ecosystem Restoration

Symbiotic Schoolyard: Learning Ecosystem Restoration
Guest Janneke Peterson, Founder of Symbiotic Schoolyard
As a middle school science teacher, Janneke Peterson sought to involve her students in place-based, real-world projects, but there was a problem. She was unable to find a high-quality place-based ecosystem unit that provided all the materials and met the high expectations of Next Generation Science Standards. This prompted her to establish the Symbiotic Schoolyard, develop the Schoolyard Habitat Restoration Unit, and package it for use by other science teachers.
Janneke now supports science teachers in planting pollinator gardens, or other kinds of native planting projects, in their schoolyard as a part of a high-quality, 8-week ecosystem curriculum. The curriculum guides students in taking on the role of restoration ecologists to answer a driving question: How can we increase the biodiversity of our schoolyard? Through hands-on lessons both in the classroom and the schoolyard, students figure out that native plant communities form the foundation of complex food webs. They come up with a plan for planting native plants in an area of their schoolyard that has low or no biodiversity, such as grass turf, pavement, or an area covered by invasive species. Then they implement the planting project in partnership with a community partner.

The Story Walking Radio Hour with Wendy Fachon: Tania Marien Founder of Talaterra

Tania Marien, Podcaster and Founder of TalaterraThe mission of Talaterra is to change the field of freelance environmental education to make it a sustainable career choice. By fostering an understanding of how freelance educators work in their communities, Talaterra is able to bring attention to the depth, breadth and knowledge of those working in this capacity.
Talaterra Founder Tania Marien is a podcast host and environmental correspondent. Her projects draw on her experiences working as an independent environmental education professional, first as the full-time editor, educator, and bookseller at ArtPlantae and now as a podcast producer, writer, researcher, and network builder.
Her current project explores how freelance environmental professionals contribute to environmental literacy. She believes that independent professionals are overlooked and that their professionalism and contributions to lifelong learning need to be recognized. Documenting their work is important because it fills the knowledge gap about how people learn about science and the environment outside of the classroom. Tania is also a contributor to The Carbon Almanac.
In the third segment, Tania talks about collaborating to create The Carbon Almanac, a game-changing publication and website which offers an incredible abundance of environmental learning resources for all ages and in multiple languages.

The Story Walking Radio Hour with Wendy Fachon: Life Experiences into Compelling Stories

Spinning our Life Experiences into Compelling Stories
Guest Diane Wyzga, Story Guide, Consultant and Founder of Quarter Moon Story Arts
Young and old, we all enjoy listening to good stories. Children, in particular, love listening to parents and teachers tell stories about life experiences that influenced their lives. Oftentimes these stories tell about how they overcame difficult times in their lives, and we may ask to hear these stories over and over again. These stories become treasures to be passed down.How might you create stories with your children that they may someday tell their own children?Guest Diane Wyzga, Story Guide, Consultant and Founder of Quarter Moon Story Arts, helps us answer this question. From US Navy nurse to lawyer, from speaker to litigation consultant, from seasoned backpacking adventurer to storyteller, it’s all about falling down 7 and getting up 8. For 30 years, Diane has helped professionals take their story from a message only they could hear to the publishing world, the courtroom, hospitals, board meetings, the airwaves, and more. Today she helps women become successful Origin Story creators: finding the words they didn’t know they had to connect with, engage, and enliven their audience to action while transforming the lives of those they serve."When a person or opportunity beckons and you summon the courage to say 'Yes!' that’s the place where the story changes."INFORMATION RESOURCESStart crafting your best story with Diane; visit the Quarter Moon Story Arts website - https://www.quartermoonstoryarts.net/Subscribe to Diane's monthly NewsAudioLetter - https://www.quartermoonstoryarts.net/hire-me/subscribe/Get inspired; listen to the Stories from Women who Walk podcasts, including Story Prompt Fridays - https://stories-from-women-who-walk.simplecast.com/episodesStory Walking photoblog: Spiritual Story Walking in the Alps - https://netwalkri.com/walking-journal/f/spiritual-story-walking-in-the-alpsLearn more about Camino de Santiago - https://caminoways.com/camino-de-santiago

The Story Walking Radio Hour with Wendy Fachon: Thrive Outside

Thrive Outside
Guest Shannon Rozea, Founder, Thrive OutsideToday's kids are our future, however, denying them access to outdoor experiences deprives them of the learning needed to become better stewards of the planet. And, the fact is, many children are lacking opportunities to thrive outside, because many lack access to safe, beautiful, natural spaces. The Center for American progress recently reported that 70 percent of low-income communities across the country are located in nature-deprived areas.Beyond this, school days are planned to the minute, with little time for spontaneity. Recess periods have been cut short, and time outside for hands-on learning have come to be viewed as a luxury most teachers think they can ill afford. Ironically, research findings are showing that this nature-depravity is proving very costly to a child's natural process of healthy growth and development - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.Guest Shannon Rozea (pronoounced Rosé) is an Environmental Educator and the Founding Director of Thrive Outside. She is also a Landscape Architect and a mother of five, dedicated to passing on a legacy of love and respect for our earth. Her organization helps schools provide their students with greater access to nature through hands-on outdoor learning and nature play. Shannon does this by designing and implementing dynamic "Outdoor Learning Zones" and supporting these zones with teacher professional development in outdoor learning.Getting kids back outside and back into nature requires some extremely creative outside-the-box thinking. Shannon and I share our stories, ideas, guidance and resources to help make this happen.INFORMATION RESOURCESJoin the THRIVE OUTSIDE newsletter mailing list.https://www.thriveoutside.info/Get your students, family, or colleagues engaged in outdoor learning.Search the RIEEA Environmental Education Directoryfor organizations, programs and resources.https://www.rieea.org/resources/environmental-education-directory/Register for a KIDS GARDENING c-Course: Landscape Design for Youth Gardens.https://kidsgardening.org/the-latest-landscape-design-course/Read the Walking Journal photoblogsOrigin Storyhttps://netwalkri.com/walking-journal/f/discovering-my-origin-story-out-of-the-water-and-onto-dry-landThe Pine Conehttps://netwalkri.com/walking-journal/f/the-pine-cone-and-the-pineal-gland
