On this episode of Weekends with Yankee, we learn about Maine’s prized wild blueberries, which cohost Amy Traverso then cooks up into a classic blueberry pie. Then we take a short tour of New England’s most iconic lighthouses, which sets the stage for cohost Richard Wiese’s in-depth visit to the Rose Island Lighthouse off the coast of Newport, Rhode Island. Finally, we close things out with Richard riding the waves in Narragansett Bay, home to some of New England’s best surfing.
