The latest episode of Elements of Craft - a series produced between WTIP and North House Folk School to promote interest in the folk arts - takes a look at willow and how it's harvested both in the wild and as a cultivated plant.

In this new series, WTIP explores how climate change is affecting the Lake Superior North Shore watershed. The second installment of the series features Steve Persons, the Grand Marais area fisheries supervisor for the DNR; his counterpart at the DNR office in Finland, Dean Paron; and the DNR’s Lake Superior Area Fisheries Supervisor, Cory Goldsworthy. Listen to the most recent installment.
