<description><![CDATA[ (Oct 25, 2012) In today&apos;s Heard Up North, we meet a woman who&apos;s one of the last experts in ecclesiastical embroidery in America. Emily Holt has spent 60 years illuminating church altars and vestments with specialized and painstaking hand-work.  Martha Foley visited her summer work space in the Thousand Islands, where she was finishing up her latest project. After two and a half years of work, she hopes to have a reproduction of an altarpiece for her church done for Christmas.

<title>Many hands help at neighborhood cider pressing</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/18563/20121009/many-hands-help-at-neighborhood-cider-pressing</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Oct 9, 2012) It is absolutely cider season, from big operations to small. Martha Foley and her neighbors usually gather at this time of year for &quot;cider day.&quot; The hand-cranked press lives in an old milk house. It&apos;s a barrel-shaped contraption, with heavy slatted sides. Whole apples, mostly wild, are washed, chopped and packed into the press. The cranking starts, squeezing the apples tighter and tighter, and eventually, the cider flows.The whole process is a team effort, starting outside with a bath for the apples.

<description><![CDATA[ (Jul 22, 2011) With so much on our minds these days, some people forget to take time and just breathe.

She still still runs the free program on the Canton Village Green every Friday at 11 a.m. during the Canton Farmers Market. Steve Knight borrowed her yoga mat for today’s Heard Up North.

<description><![CDATA[ (Jul 20, 2010) The town of Essex, along Lake Champlain, is one of those bucolic spots in  the North Country with views of the lake, blue-gray mountains and rolling green pastures.  Kristin and Mark Kimball run Essex Farms, a sustainable farm where they do most of the work with teams of draft horses instead of tractors.  They run a CSA and raise pasture-fed cows, chickens, pigs, bees and immense fields of veggies.  We visit the farm&apos;s bovine beauties for today’s Heard Up North.

<description><![CDATA[ (Aug 18, 2009) There are any number of labor-intensive crafts that have faded away, replaced by time-saving mechanization.  Some of the devotees who keep the old techniques alive are eager to share those skills. Lucy Martin recently ran into a working display put on by ladies from the Ottawa Guild of Lacemakers.  For today&apos;s &quot;Heard Up North&quot;, one of the Guild&apos;s members took a break from teaching the public to talk about why she likes the hobby.
