Aldine, KRCL's Punk Rock Farmer, talks with the folks behind Foodscaping Utah, a volunteer group that helps people in Ogden transform their front yards into edible landscapes. Plus, a Moveable Feast of the 5 Senses with Slow Food Utah, SLC Air Protectors' Medicine Prayer Run, a Joe Hill Labor Day, and homegrown music from Kate MacLeod and The Boys Ranch.
Tonight's lineup:
