Join Rick and Elara of Backyard Green Films as we traverse the U.S on a green adventure! We travel throughout the land in our travel trailer (nicknamed Bessie), on a mission to share the stories, dedication, and wisdom of America's stewards of sustainable agriculture who've followed their own 'call of the land.' From scientists to geneticists to organic farmers and ranchers - plus a bounty of interesting folks we meet along the way, each voice is uniquely diverse, and each story compels us to uncover, discover, and share.

Ep 204 Tom Begley: Howdy Pilgrim. Tom, Turkey, and the First Thanksgiving

November 23, 2023 • Tom Begley • Season 5 • Episode 204

Here at Backyard Green Films, we’re getting ready to celebrate the 400-year anniversary of the Devons coming to America with our Plymouth to Plimoth documentary. In preparation for this event (and our film!), we spoke with Tom Begley, Deputy Director for Collections Research and Public Engagement at Plimoth Patuxet Museum. Doesn’t the site of the Pilgrim connection seem like a wonderful podcast for today’s Thanksgiving holiday? We thought so, too.

In addition, we hope you join us in April and May, as we follow the Devon World Congress tour 2024. People come from all over the world to celebrate the glories of the beef side of the Devon Cattle breed, and the American Milking Devon side of the family will be there, too. More excitement to come in the upcoming year, we assure you.

Thanksgiving is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate both our differences and our similarities, all with good food and good company. We send our best wishes, and grateful thanks, to all of our listeners and our sponsors.
