Episode 212: Fall Foliage

This week on Weekends with Yankee, we celebrate the ultimate New England season, autumn, in all its multicolored glory. First, we hike up to Holt’s Ledge in Hanover, New Hampshire, and get a fall color tutorial from photographer Jim Salge, the resident foliage expert for NewEngland.com. Next, we head to Vermont for an autumn visit with goat farmer and cheese maker Allison Hooper, whose Vermont Creamery has helped put New England cheeses in the national spotlight. Finally, the editor of Yankee magazine, Mel Allen, takes us on a tour of New Hampshire’s Kancamagus Highway and shares some of his favorite out-of-the-way vistas on one of America’s most scenic highways. Back in the Test Kitchen, cohost and Yankee senior food editor Amy Traverso makes a beautiful summer salad with goat cheese and cherries.
