Emily’s Interviews – Montague library vote
On today’s show I’m excited to invite in the director of the montague library Caitlin as well as the chair of the library trustee’s will to talk about voting on a new library!! Montague has been awarded an 11.3 million dollar grant to build a brand spanking new libarary! This grant covers 48% of the cost! Which would create a building that’s ADA compliant, can host their programs on site, has better parking and so much more!
With the voting looming, there is a lot of information being spread around. Much conflicting! it thought today would be a great opportunity to debunk misinformation out there and talk about why a new library would be amazing for Montague!

FCCDC Food Insecurity Grant Program
Today, I’m joined by Communications Director Kate Lawless and Program Manager Hannah Soble from the Franklin County Community Development Corporation. We also have Lev Benezra from the Amherst Survival center, Evita Wilbur from Pulse Cafe.
They’re here to discuss a unique grant program that’s funding local restaurants to prepare meals, which are then distributed to food-insecure communities across the Commonwealth—including right here in western Massachusetts.
This initiative is putting $450,000 into action, helping provide around 50,000 meals while also supporting restaurants facing rising costs, staffing challenges, and shifting consumer habits in the wake of the pandemic. It’s a win-win for both the restaurants and the individuals who rely on food pantries and community meal programs.
