Thursday, April 5 – William “Bill” Caraher, UND History professor and Bret Weber, historian and professor of social work at UND, visit with host Matt Olien about their book, The Bakken: An Archaeology of an Industrial Landscape. See that entire conversation on Prairie Public's Youtube channel HERE. ~~~ As Harvest Public Media reported yesterday, families are increasingly drawn to the open land on the edge of big cities, with implications for previously rural areas. Today, Harvest reporters Amy Mayer and Erica Hunzinger look at how communities near Des Moines and Kansas City have stretched and adapted. ~~~ The latest series of shows has been announced for the Old Town Hall Theater in Medora. Medora spokesman Justin Fisk will also update us on this year’s Medora Musical. ~~~ Doug and Ashley have our What’s Happening calendar of events.
