Episode 204: Trade

This week on Weekends with Yankee, we travel to Massachusetts to experience the unique and incredibly colorful tradition of cranberry harvesting, which the Gilmore family of South Carver has been doing for generations. Then bring your appetites as we head to Portland, Maine, where we’ll take you inside some of our favorite restaurants in this food lover’s paradise. Last but not least, we go off the beaten path in Vermont to explore Greensboro, which Yankee magazine editors call “the best little food town in New England,” and visit a cult brewer and a cheese maker that rank among America’s best. Back in the Test Kitchen, cohost and Yankee senior food editor Amy Traverso spins out an ale and cheddar cheese dip that makes the most of these classic Vermont ingredients.
