There's a popular saying that it takes a village to raise a child, but these days, it can take a village to fund one. The online community has evolved from crowdfunding artistic projects and philanthropic necessities to a third category that sits somewhere in between funding your friend’s cool indie album and a round of life-saving chemo for a child. Jessica Melcher and her husband joined a growing trend when they began accepting online donations for a costly in vitro fertilization pregnancy.

As aired on the Local Food Report on WCAI, the NPR station for the Cape, Coast, and Islands in Massachusetts. 

During the summer, a bright orange flower weaves through your daily commute. Daylilies pop up along roadsides and bike paths, cemeteries and soccer fields, even in the cracks between pavement. Long admired for their beauty, these prolific invasives are also edible. In this episode of The Local Food Report, horticulturist Laura Swain demonstrates how to turn daylily flowers into a potluck showstopper.

Follow your passion. Singular – one passion. It’s a common piece of advice. By college, many of us have picked between the arts and sciences. For fun, we take personality tests that tell us whether we are thinkers or feelers. This is a story about Elizabeth Bradfield of North Truro, a writer and a naturalist. In an age of specialization, she has chosen not to choose between her passions but rather to let one inspire the other.

Aired on WCAI.

Letters to a Young Generalist

Hello, I'm Nora! I'm an audio storyteller. 

I’ve reported and produced audio stories for Slate Studios, Atlantic Public Media, WCAI (NPR member station), HumaNature Podcast (Wyoming Public Media), and Interlochen Public Radio. My stories have led me to all kinds of places—down online rabbit holes to explore the intersection of technology and fertility, up the Scottish highlands on a mountain bike, and to the carpet of a public library to talk with kids about literacy. 

I have a post-graduate certificate in Radio & Podcasting from the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies and an honours degree in English from the University of Toronto. My work is equally informed by my experiences as an improv comedy actor and instructor, a farmhand, and an HR professional.
