Episode 9
Thoughts of Maine might conjure up lush landscapes, but 96 percent of Maine's low-income and non-white residents live in a nature-deprived area.
Nan Cumming, executive director of Portland Parks Conservancy, and Tom Farrell, director of parks and recreation for the Town of Brunswick, discuss what they are doing to bridge the nature gap and provide accessible green space for their communities.
The "Maine Ties" theme is "Blue Heron" by 317 Main.
