Beware! This edition of Voices from the Archive talks about some tasty food, and your taste buds are sure to grow impatient for upcoming holiday sweets. Stick around, and hear Alfred Greenlee tell about the generosity and honesty of the families he knew growing up. Voices from the Archive is a monthly segment of StoryTown Radio. It shares stories from people living here, just how they told them. You might think of it as a news report that tells you about all sorts of things. From railroads to ghost stories to apple butter, you could learn just about anything from the people living here in East Tennessee. Listen in as they tell the stories of their lives here in Appalachia. StoryTown Radio is a bimonthly production of the McKinney Center's Story Initiative. Grounded in the belief that stories connect people to each other, the Story Initiative sets out to collect, archive, and share the stories from the region. Broadcast from Jonesborough, Tennessee, the Storytelling Capital of the World, StoryTown Radio is one way these stories are shared with people, nearby and all around.
