Nancy Owens Hess, the Executive Director of Elizabeth Stone House in Boston, tells Nichole about their new project - a brand new center to help with transitional housing, child care, and community engagement for adult and child victims of domestic violence. Weeks before the center was supposed to open, there was a major accident, which is setting their timeline back by months. Nancy has more on how the public can help. MDAR Commissioner John Lebeaux talks with Nichole about winter farmer's markets here in Massachusetts and all they have to offer. The two also talk about how farmers are helping combat food insecurity during the pandemic, and how our shopping habits are changing because of the coronavirus.
