One hundred virgin cows will sashay down the main street of Brattleboro this weekend as part of the 5th annual Strolling of the Heifers. The parade seeks to build public awareness about the importance of dairy farming in the region. We'll talk with founder and organizer Orly Munzing about the 4-day event.

And we talk with author Sy Montgomery whose new book The Good Good Pig celebrates the life and uniqueness of her beloved, departed pig, Christopher Hogwood.
