This week on Yonder Radio, we start out talking to Julia Tilton about Sangamon County, Illinois, where the county board recently approved a major data center project even as a major regulatory bill aiming to address data centers is caught up in the state legislature.

Then, we’re going on a road trip around the Great Lakes with Tim Marema and Liz McGeachy in their music-filled camper van, and celebrating the humanity of the roadside rest stop with columnist Claire Carlson. Then we move on to the dry farming movement, which helps farmers use less water for a more sustainable farming future. And finally, we’ll end up in a men’s shed, where older Iowans are building community, and crafts, over coffee and power tools.

The musical guests this week are Larry & Joe, a duo that fuses Venezuelan and Appalachian folk music. Tune in for all that, and more, on this week’s episode of Yonder Radio.
