Have you ever wondered how June looks and tastes in different parts of the country? This week, we visit?three different corners of the country to hear about their Junes. Gullah Geechee?Chef-Farmer, Matthew Raiford in Coastal Georgia describes?this time of year as ¡°where the wild things are¡±. He tells us how his decision to come back to the south to become a farmer came to be and paints a picture of his favorite low country boil. Matthew's latest book is?Bress ¡®N¡¯ Nyam: Gullah Geechee Recipes from a Sixth-Generation Farmer.?Then, we take a trip to Alaska to hear from?Native Alaskan?fisherwoman, Melanie Brown as she?takes us?into a?radiantly green scene?with sloughs and creeks and paints a vivid picture of millions of sockeye Salmon rolling into Bristol Bay. And then, we sit in with Ronni Lundy, author of the award-winning?Victuals: An Appalachian Journey, with Recipes?to talk about June in the mountains and summer preserves.
