    Each the Saturday before Mother’s Day Charleston has the East End Yard Sale. Residents who live in the east in hold this sale which allows them to get rid of unwanted stuff and if not careful buy more stuff. I went down to the sale and talked with some east-enders who were selling items. There is also a lot of food that gets sold during this sale. Several thousand people turn out for the sale. The best part is crowd watching.

    In our final segment we learn about the importance of local Farmers Markets.

    An Award, Student Farmers, WV Explorer & Prioritizing Primary Care
    2025/05/04
    Appalachia Matters has been named The Best Radio Program in West Virginia in an unranked market, which means small market, by the West Virginia Broadcasters Association. This award would not have been possible if it were not for our contributors Major General Jim Hoyer and Beth Southern with West Virginia Department of Agriculture. This effort would have failed were it not for our loyal listeners, so we say thank you.

    In this episode Tom Susman joins General James Hoyer at the Leadership Table to discuss the award from the West Virginia Broadcasters and to discuss what is ahead for the program.

    The Rooted in the Mountain segment from the Department of Agriculture we learn about how Wheeling Park High students are involved in a school based farm and agriculture.

    David Sibray, who is from southern West Virginia, has an online publication called the West Virginia Explorer which highlights history, natural areas and just about anything in our region. Tom Susman has an extended conversation with David.

    In our final segment we will replay a report that was produced for WMOV Radio it reports on an Occupational Health and Primary Care Clinic in Gallipolis Ferry WV. It is a joint project of Marshall Health Network and Rivers Heath in Point Pleasant. The clinic is in the shadows of the Nucor steel plant which is under construction in Mason County. An interesting aspect with the clinic is the priority given to primary health care at a time many hospital systems are targeting specialty care.
