On The House - On The Airwaves
On The House was live this week taking your calls, answering your questions, and having some fun along the way. From the headlines to the airwaves, the On The House trio discussed community gardening and indoor air quality. Also among the discussion was a recently published article about the resurgence of rural living making its way into the suburbs - raising backyard hens. A healthy and humane alternative to rising food prices or a neighborhood nuisance? This topic sure did get our hosts talking, and America joined the action to tell us what they thought about this new wave of alternative living. Missed the radio show? To catch up on all the fun, read the show notes and listen via our streaming audio.
