The Whetstone, The Island & The Homeless: Source To Sea Cleanup 2019

Monte heads to Brattleboro’s Whetstone Station to watch the river flow with a birds eye view from a rooftop bar. But on the island near the bridge there are people living in tents. We talk with Kathy Urffer from the CT River Conservancy and Josh Davis the Executive Director of Groundworks Collaborative about the intersection of homelessness, trash, and river health. It’s all part of the Source To Sea Cleanup.
