On April 1st, Southold farmer Steph Gaylor of Invincible Summer Farms in Southold Town will talk about how the coronavirus pandemic is helping her to understand more clearly the challenges of food production and distribution as well as the dynamics of seed economics. Steph’s perspective ranges from what’s happening locally on the East End of Long Island to developments on the broader national level. (To be broadcast on WPKN on Wednesday, April 1st, 2020 at 7:30 pm.)
Born to German Jewish refugee physicians in Lahore (now Pakistan, then British India) Hazel has lived, studied and worked in many places–India, England, Australia, Israel and the United States. She makes her home in the woods of the eastern end of Long Island, New York where she produces the art of leafages, the radio sounds of Tidings and writes about growing up Jewish in Lahore.

Leafages by Hazel Kahan are made from real leaves, vines and tendrils interwoven with calligraphy, decorative pen and ink flourishes and imaginary Latin botanical names. Leafages contain a philosophical or inspirational thought, quotation or verse from sages, poets or religious texts. Some leafages are specially created for an individual, a couple or a family with words or leaves reflecting their personal narrative. They are available on the Leafages shop on Etsy although the supply is low right now, all my energies having been absorbed by the book I’ve been writing. Do come back soon when the shop will be full of new leafage abundance or contact me.
