include an essay-writing contest aimed at Vermont middle schoolers. This year’s essays addressed the question of the persistence of racism, and how the country might move toward “a more perfect union.” Winners of the contest, including first-place finisher Livia Greenberg of Stratton Mountain School, were honored at a luncheon at Hildene last Sunday. In Reed’s view, Hildene is one of the two most important sites on the trail; a small wooden building in the Windham County town of Grafton (population about 700) is the other. The latter modest structure, formerly a private home, now houses the Grafton History Museum. It contains many artifacts and archives related to Daisy Turner, one of Vermont’s most famous African American residents and renowned storytellers. Turner, who died in 1988 at the age of 104, lived nearly all her life in or near Grafton. Her parents were freed slaves who had settled in the tiny town and established themselves, against great

odds, as prominent figures in its community. Turner was as charismatic and irascible as any Vermonter in history, as author Jane Beck reveals in her 2015 biography, Daisy Turner’s Kin: An African American Family Saga. The Grafton History Museum is actually one part of a twofer on the trail. Nearby is the 595-acre Turner Hill Wildlife Management Area, which encompasses the location where Daisy Turner once lived. Other sites on the trail include the Justin Smith Morrill Homestead in Strafford, Woodstock’s River Street Cemetery and the Vermont Folklife Center in Middlebury. To visit all 20 sites on the trail, visitors would need several days and a willingness to drive several hundred miles around the state. Or, you could knock them off individually as time permits. Either way, it would be impossible to visit these sites and not learn a great deal about Vermont and black history. That dual focus is intentional, according to Reed. After all, Vermont’s story and that of African Americans are intertwined. m

“barn bikes” in need of tune-ups and repairs. Aside from the uptick in his own business, Glowiak predicts some sanguine consequences for the whole area. “It should bring down the average weight of Lamoille County,” he quipped. “People will live longer.” Indeed, as I caught the LVRT on Portland Street, two blocks from the Bijou Cineplex 4, I was struck by how many runners and cyclists were using it on a weekday morning. Though their numbers dwindled the farther I rode from town, it was a promising sign for the trail’s future. One bonus of this stretch of the trail is that it has very few road crossings. Pedaling west, I rode the packed-gravel path across an old train trestle, then over a new bridge that spans the Route 100 bypass. I passed Lost Nation Brewing, where the outdoor seating for food and drinks was closed on this particular morning. Just as well, as I’d never get far on a belly full of beer. Nearly outside of town, I spotted a signpost directing me to gas (for snowmobiles), food, lodging and bike repairs. Though I expected more signage ahead, I found little. According to Cindy Locke, executive director of VAST, the trail’s safety signs are all in place, but amenity and mileage markers are still to come. On May 21, VAST will install a historic marker in Jeffersonville on the spot

ust before 10:30 a.m., I mounted my bike in Oxbow Park in Morrisville and headed toward the newest section of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail. Virtually all my previous visits to this small Lamoille County town have been rest stops en route to somewhere else. But the recent completion of a beautiful, 17mile rail trail, running from Morrisville to Cambridge, is likely to turn the area into a tourist destination on its own. This stretch of trail is just part of the big picture. Last summer, the Vermont Association of Snow Travelers, which is overseeing construction and maintenance of the four-season LVRT, completed the trail’s first 12-mile stretch, running from St. Johnsbury to Danville.

That and the new section will eventually be two legs of a contiguous 93-mile-long rail trail extending from Swanton to St. Johnsbury. When finished, the LVRT will be the longest rail trail in New England and will provide an economic engine for the 18 towns along its route. While the time frame for completion depends on funding, that engine is already in gear. Before heading out, I stopped at Chuck’s Bikes, one of two bicycle shops in downtown Morrisville — the other is Power Play Sports — to get intel on what to look for during my ride. Owner Hank Glowiak reported that this stretch, finished late last year, got plenty of bike use over the winter. That’s given his business a big boost, he said, as locals have been stopping by his shop with old

where three Vermont railroad workers were killed in 1949. Such reminders of the rail trail’s industrial past are common on the route, enhancing rather than marring the experience. Entering Hyde Park, the trail follows a gentle bend in the Lamoille River, where I stopped to take in a gorgeous view of the mountains. Looking down the steep embankment, I spotted a pile of rusting debris. Only later did I learn that this wasn’t an illegal trash dump but the remains of a decades-old train derailment. A historic marker will eventually tell its story, too. From there, the trail wends through woods, gradually descends to the valley floor and crosses several long, flat stretches of farmland. True to Glowiak’s advance warning, I encountered a stiff and steady headwind here. Still, I was relieved not to be riding on Route 15, which is visible from the LVRT but never close enough to leave cyclists sucking exhaust from passing vehicles. Emerging from the flatlands, the trail climbs back into the woods and crosses a second trestle bridge over the Lamoille River. By this point, I was the only cyclist in sight. Farther on, the trail hits another flat stretch, where a farmer was filling an open manure pit. Despite a headwind, I pedaled swiftly past. About a quarter mile beyond the dairy farm, I arrived at a rock ledge and a small jeep trail leading toward the

the 1920s, the very cool railroad décor included historical photos from around the country. Steve Foster, who runs the restaurant, admitted that when construction began on the LVRT, he had no idea what it would mean for business. Since the trail opened, however, his volume of customers has risen dramatically. “The snow-machine community has known about us for years. On a good day, we can have 20 or 30 sleds parked outside,” he said. “Now people are realizing, Oh, I can bike in from Johnson, eat lunch, hang out and then bike back.” It’s easy to envision what the trail will do for this and other communities along the way. I can imagine weekend farmers markets sprouting along the LVRT to serve locals and tourists alike. According to Donna Higgons, board president of the all-volunteer Friends of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail, new businesses such as bike touring companies are already in the works. “This trail is just amazing for all sorts of reasons,” said Locke at VAST. “I’m really convinced it’s going to be the top four-season recreation destination for the state when it’s done.” I know of one repeat visitor already. The day after my trip, Rosenholz emailed to say she’d returned to ride the rest of the LVRT to Cambridge. Her one-word review: “Awesome!”

suitable for her road bike. But once on it, she was thrilled to be there. “Oh, my God! I had no idea this was here!” she exclaimed, with hints of her native Brazilian accent. Rosenholz used to be an avid cyclist with her husband, riding bikeways throughout the United States and Canada. Since his death three years ago, the retiree still visits her second home in Stowe several times a year, but, she said, she has had to find excuses to ride again. Soon it was evident that the LVRT would be one such excuse. We found a comfortable riding pace and enjoyed a steady tailwind through the valley. Rosenholz fell in love with the trail, gushing about it all the way back to Morrisville. Around each new scenic bend she’d exclaim, “Oh, how beautiful!” “This is heaven!” or “Gorgeous, just gorgeous!” I’d already made a new convert to the LVRT, having discovered its pleasures myself just a few hours earlier. Back in Morrisville, we took some selfies on the trestle bridge, then continued another two miles east to the end of the completed portion. (Though the LVRT continues, the next stretch hasn’t been resurfaced yet and is best traveled on foot or mountain bike.) Along the way, we spotted an active beaver lodge and lots of dog walkers. Rosenholz and I parted ways downtown, and she continued on to Stowe. I poked my head into 10 Railroad Street, a burger and barbecue joint in Morrisville’s historic train station. Outside, meat simmered in a smoker beside picnic tables. Inside the restaurant, which has been an eatery since

snowmobile trail — a risky venture when snow cover was light, as the rails were still present. In 2005, then-representative Bernie Sanders secured a $4.94 million federal grant to convert the abandoned rail bed into a full-time recreational corridor. Today, the LVRT is a partnership between VAST and VTrans, with volunteer support from the Friends of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail. VAST still needs another $10 million to complete the project — the next phase will renovate the Sheldon-to-Swanton stretch — and a capital campaign begins next month. Any funds left over after construction and maintenance, Locke noted, will be put toward amenities such as historic signage, picnic tables and composting toilets. “But we’ve got to get the trail built first,” she said. Without signposts to tell me where I was, I overshot downtown Johnson by several miles before checking my smartphone and finding myself halfway to Jeffersonville. Hungry, I backtracked to the lumberyard, then caught Railroad Street into downtown Johnson, where I stopped for lunch at the Dream Café. As I sat down outside to eat, another cyclist pulled up and asked if I’d come across the Notch from Stowe and, if so, whether there was road construction along the way. She was in a foul mood, with good reason. She’d biked from Stowe via Morrisville — but, unlike me, had taken Route 15 and struggled to negotiate the construction and traffic. I informed her that I’d come in on the LVRT; she’d never heard of it. So, after lunch, I invited my new friend, Claudia Rosenholz of Albany, N.Y., to follow me back to the trail. Initially she was wary, not sure the unpaved surface was

river. I left the trail and parked alongside Dog’s Head Falls in Johnson. I’d been warned beforehand about the alluring spot’s treacherous currents, which have claimed the lives of several swimmers over the years. But the rocks and river’s edge offer plenty of shady spots suitable for picnicking. West of the falls, the trail follows a gentle northerly bend in the river and passes a deeply excavated hillside — a gravel pit used by the town of Johnson for road maintenance. According to an on-site worker, the pit will remain open for only another year or so before it’s revegetated. Pedaling west, I savored the fullsensory experience of riding the LVRT — not just its sights and sounds, but also its smells: the earthy, metallic odor of gravel mining; the fecund pungency of freshly fertilized fields; the piney aroma of newly cut timber at Parker & Stearns’ lumberyard. The LVRT is less a trip into Vermont’s industrial past than a tour of its still-working landscape. And, though the bike path is new, its route is not. First constructed in 1877 by the St. Johnsbury & Lake Champlain Railroad Company, the track served both passenger trains and freight cars hauling timber, limestone, talc and asbestos from northern Vermont’s forests and quarries. Passenger service ended in 1956, and the state acquired the right-of-way in 1973, after the railroad went bankrupt. For nearly 20 years, VTrans leased the track to other users, though serious rail traffic dwindled by the mid-1980s. Erosion and flood damage put the tracks entirely out of commission by August 1995. Beginning in 1997, VAST formally began using the right-of-way as a

Killington is expanding its trail network this summer to accommodate a 1.3-mile downhill race trail and 2.15-mile expert jump trail, as well as 2.29 miles of single track from the top of the Ramshead area. These trails are scheduled to open in late July. Until then, riders can sit back, relax and enjoy the view — kidding! — as they take the K-1 Express Gondola down the aptly named Scarecrow trail from the 4,241-foot summit of Killington Peak.

One of the state’s newest places to try ZIP-LINING is Stowe Mountain Resort, where the ZipTour Adventure treats riders to a two-mile tour of Mount Mansfield through a series of four cables spanning 2,000 vertical feet. A trolley attaches helmeted and chest-harnessed participants ages 10 and up, who can control their own speeds on the zip lines. These range in length from the Demo Trainer’s 150 feet to the formidable 4,462-footlong Nosedive Zip — the third longest in the lower 48 states. The ZipTour rises 130 feet off the ground, giving riders a bird’s-eye view of the Green Mountain bounty below.

Snake, Rattle and Roll Searching for Vermont’s slithery reptiles

his past winter wasn’t particularly frigid, but it was cold enough to encourage many Vermonters to curl up and wait patiently for balmier days. The warm May sunlight has finally coaxed these hibernators out of their nooks to soak up the rays. No, not sunbathers; we’re talking about snakes. Despite its long winters, Vermont is home to at least 11 snake species. They’re widely distributed across the state, but their greatest concentration in terms of numbers and species diversity is along the southern edges of the Lake Champlain Basin. By feeding on small rodents and amphibians, and providing food for raptors and mammalian predators, snakes play a vital role in the state’s ecosystem. Wherever they slither, these reptiles are misunderstood. It doesn’t help that, mythically, snakes have had a bad rap as symbols of deceit, death and the devil. Yet, with one exception — the seldom-seen timber rattlesnake — Vermont’s snakes are harmless. If you can conquer your reptilian revulsion, searching for snakes is a fascinating way to spend a summer day. Just ask Jim Andrews. Andrews, an adjunct assistant professor of herpetology at the University of Vermont, probably knows more about snakes than anyone else in the state. He conceded that the creatures can be a tough sell. “Snakes have a reputation in literature, in our psyche, that is down there with bats and wolves and coyotes,” he said. “They need some PR.” And public-relations promo is just what Andrews gives them. In 1994, he developed a comprehensive website called the Vermont Reptile & Amphibian Atlas, an ever-evolving resource he still maintains. Many users know it as the “Vermont herp atlas” — that’s short for herpetology, the study of reptiles and amphibians. For every resident turtle, lizard, snake, salamander, frog or toad, the herp atlas provides information on physical appearance, geographic range, conservation status and more. Citizen scientists have gathered much of the data. The atlas is a valuable source for scientific researchers, but its secondary mission is to educate the public. “Conservation is my goal,” said Andrews over breakfast in Fair Haven, shortly before an early May snake-finding

expedition. “Reptiles and amphibians are the vehicle.” Andrews continued with what might be called his mission statement: “Most people in Vermont enjoy interacting with wildlife. Many people came here or stayed here because they like being within a working ecosystem. And most of us, as parents and stewards, would like to keep that around for our kids and our grandkids, and future generations. But it is not gonna happen without awareness. Not. Gonna. Happen.” Why snakes, though? For one thing, there’s that PR issue. Attitudes toward snakes are long overdue for a reboot. Also, many Vermonters don’t even know their state is home to so many legless reptiles. “You can’t assess the value of something if you’re not even aware of it,” Andrews said, “and you certainly won’t know if it disappeared from your house, or from your town, or from your state, if somebody wasn’t aware of it.” The atlas isn’t his only means of broadening that awareness. Andrews regularly leads excursions into prime snake territory, with two goals: to dispel long-held misconceptions and to emphasize the animals’ place in any conservation plan. For years, he has taken employees from various state agencies on field trips to demonstrate how snakes can and should fit into their missions. The “snaking” trip on which Andrews invited Seven Days was for the benefit of the Vermont Agency Water snake of Transportation. Snakes and traffic patterns may not seem related, but Andrews explained the critical role that VTrans can play in reptile conservation. Some 15 years ago, Chris Slesar, who works in VTrans’ environmental division, approached Andrews, realizing that transportation systems and the wildlife movement needed to interact. Specifically, officials needed to take wildlife migration into account as they

designed and built Vermont’s transportation infrastructure. Their collaboration has yielded concrete results. Andrews cited several VTrans projects built with wildlife conservation in mind: a foraging and egg-laying habitat for a species of snakes called racers adjacent to a stretch of Interstate 91, for example; and a causeway between Swanton and Alburgh that creates habitat for spiny softshell turtles. When Seven Days met up with Andrews, Slesar and nearly 20 other VTrans employees, the goal was more straightforward: to find, observe and

learn about snakes. That’s the first step, Andrews believes, toward achieving compassion for the creatures, and toward considering their needs when designing future projects. We convened at the Helen W. Buckner Preserve, a 4,000-acre site along the Poultney River in west-central Vermont. The preserve is one of the most ecologically diverse areas in the state, and it’s particularly rich in snakes: 10 species are known to dwell there. (Only racers live elsewhere, chiefly in Vermont’s southeastern corner, which is also thought to be home to the eastern hognose snake.) The method was simple: Spread out, walk across the preserve’s meadows and try to startle the snakes into showing themselves. Just a minute into our search, and no more than 100 feet from the road, Jens Hilke, a conservation planning biologist with the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department, pounced on the ground and came up with a garter snake. Andrews seized the teaching moment, demonstrating how to hold a snake and identify its gender from its markings. This one, a female, had eaten recently, judging by the palpable bulge in her middle. Very soon a second snake was found — a big black one half-buried beneath a dried shrub. It took a moment for even Andrews to realize that this animal, a four-foot-long eastern rat snake, had already shuffled off the mortal coil. That made it easier for him to push gently on the snake to express its hemipenes — the twin barbed male sex organs. Andrews

passed the lifeless animal around, and much of the group’s squeamishness dissipated. Once you’ve touched the spiky half-penises of a dead snake, there isn’t much else to feel queasy about. Even novices were soon leaping to capture the many snakes that slipped through the meadow’s tangled mat of dead grass. A surefire method to catch a snake is to pin it gently to the ground with one hand, then pick it up and allow it to coil around your hand and arm. Usually, the snake settles down within seconds. How do you know whether it’s safe? Easy: If the snake rattles, leave it alone; if it doesn’t, you can touch it. That rule has some exceptions. The banded common milk snake will rattle and strike, but it’s nonvenomous. True rattlers are rare — and endangered — in Vermont; you can recognize them by the segmented rattle at the end of their black tails. This reporter, who had no unease about handling snakes, paid the price for his bravado. Garter snakes, it turns out, can bite. The attack felt no worse than a scratch from a rosebush, but it was nonetheless startling to see a snake’s teeth embedded in my wrist. In a garter snake, those teeth are only a millimeter or so long, Andrews said, and they’re meant for holding prey in place, not for injecting venom. Just as he promised, the small wound healed quickly. The occasional shallow chomp aside, Vermont snakes are far less dangerous than many of the other animals — and even some of the plants — that we regard as cute or ornamental. Less dangerous than chipmunks, even. “What vertebrate can you go out there and grab?” Andrews asked rhetorically. “Skunk? Raccoon? Wildcat? Go grab ’em — something’s going to happen. “People plant plants in their yards — rosebushes, blackberries — that are more dangerous and do more harm to humans than these snakes do,” he insisted. The remainder of the morning yielded a great many more garter snakes, along with two other species: a tiny DeKay’s brown snake, found on a dirt road; and several northern water snakes. We located young water snakes in a froggy pond and a big, gorgeous, gray adult water snake poking through a reedy marsh. Even passed from hand to hand, this three-and-a-half-foot snake remained docile. After this excursion, the members of our group would surely swear that scanning for snakes in a sunny field is a fun and educational pastime. Just don’t tread on them. m

sk nearly anyone who has spent time in Middlebury about their favorite Otter Creek Bakery treat, and watch them get instantly dreamy-eyed. “Oh, my God, the olive twists,” raves Melody Trump, who lives in East Middlebury. “So salty and affordable!” she says of the $2.25 snack. “When I was pregnant with my second kid, I craved them several times a week. They always run out early in the morning. If I didn’t get one, it would be all I could think about all day long.” “The Caesar salad that comes in a Chinese take-out carton,” says Middlebury College grad Rachel Joynes. “It’s just — those croutons. The fresh lemon slice. And it always has nice, sophisticated greens, frisée and shit like that. And there’s something about the carton that makes it kind of a joy to open, like a little present.” Former Seven Days delivery driver Tomas Ruprecht loves OCB’s pretzels so much, he regularly sends the bakery fanciful postcards decorated with messages inspired by his pretzel obsession. An album displays them near the OCB coffee station. Local playwright Dana Yeaton’s personal favorite? The honeybun. Sweet, dotted with raisins and showered in cinnamon sugar, they ring in at just $1.75. “First of all, it’s a bargain,” he enthuses. “But you have to get them early, because they always go. They’re not too sweet. Just enough raisins.” Yeaton is also a fan of the Lunch Box Folders: Regulars can pay $50 for an index card kept in a hot-pink box at the register, which entitles them to $55 worth of credit. During the morning rush, you’ll see folks dash in, grab coffee, wave to the cashier and dash out. “What it creates is a kind of insiders’ club, which makes you feel special,” Yeaton says.

Otter Creek Bakery

It’s easy to see why OCB draws a steady stream of “insiders” and regulars. For 30 years, co-owners Ben and Sarah Wood have been churning out delicious European-style fare. They’ve created the kind of place where, quite literally, everybody knows your name. And their location — on College Street, right about where Middlebury College meets downtown Middlebury — helps them bridge the town-gown gap, attracting customers from both sides. In warm weather, bright blue umbrellas shade tables and chairs on the sidewalk in front of the bakery. It’s the perfect spot to linger over coffee, watch the world go by and feed the songbirds.

Inside, sweets and treats are displayed in glass cases and tiered cake stands: homemade oversize Oreos, cinnamon twists, fruit-filled oat bran muffins, blueberry scones, elegant cakes, tarts, meringues. For lunch, there are sandwiches, panini, salads, soups. A bucket of twisted puppy biscuits sits by the register. A single long banquette is all the seating you’ll find indoors, the better to start conversations with strangers. At the end of the lunch rush on a recent Thursday, in walked 90-year-old George Jaeger, a World War II veteran and one-time U.S. Department of State official and diplomat in residence at

Five minutes later, Ben emerged with the day’s special, a soft-shell crab sandwich that Jaeger deemed delicious. Ben and Sarah — now 60 and 54, respectively — have known each other since she was 7; their mothers were good friends in Delaware, where they both grew up. Both also got their culinary start at the same French fine-dining establishment. In 1975, 18-year-old Ben was looking for a way out of his job insulating houses SO SWEET

On an otherwise quiet Monday morning in Morrisville, heavy machinery began ripping up concrete in front of 46 Pleasant Street, where the new MORRISVILLE FOOD CO-OP — already known as MoCo — will open this fall. At a ceremonial groundbreaking on May 11, several dozen people gathered to support the long-awaited project, including MoCo board president SARAH THOMAS. “The board feels that MoCo will be a great addition to downtown Morrisville [because] co-ops invest in their communities,” she said. Thomas underscored her point with numbers: Since co-ops use products from area farmers and producers, they claim an economic multiplier of 1.6, while conventional grocery stores hover around 1.36. So every $1,000 spent at a co-op like MoCo will generate $1,604 in local economic activity — $239 more than that same chunk of cash spent at a supermarket. With 169 memberfarmers and producers in Lamoille County, MoCo aims to become an essential support system for the area, boosting the agricultural economy and improving food

access for the surrounding population. MoCo’s Membership Assistance Fund offers half off the $200 fee for prospective low-income members, who can then pay their balance in monthly increments as low as $10. The soon-to-be renovated storefront — formerly a consignment store, furniture store and state unemployment office — sits across from a municipal parking lot; its central location will also allow many locals access by foot. With Morrisville’s two conventional grocery stores located on the fringes of town, MoCo’s arrival marks the return of a full-service grocery to the main village — the first since the early 1980s. It will offer dry groceries, meat, dairy, produce and frozen food, as well as a deli, a grab-and-go section and a seating area. Due to its relationship with nearby farmers, Thomas noted, the store will offer a varied selection of natural, organic and locally sourced provisions.

speeds, many mountain bikers enjoy resting their muscles over a cold beer. In East Burke, MIKE’S TIKI BAR has become an aprèsbike mainstay since it opened at the base of Kingdom Trails three summers ago. “[The Tiki Bar] is, like, the greatest thing to happen in the Kingdom in my lifetime,” says CARRIE TOMCZYK, who co-owns Lyndonville’s Village Sport Shop with her brother, Chris Hibshman. “Well, after Kingdom Trails, of course.” In 2014, Tomczyk and Hibshman opened a trailside satellite location near the WILDFLOWER INN on Darling Hill. This spring, they moved into a barn on the property and created a four-stool stopover bar they’ve dubbed HUB BREW COUNTER. They’ll start serving beer later this month. “My light bulb went off,” Tomczyk recalls. “I’d always wanted to have beer at the [trailside] bike shop. Out west, that’s happening all over the place.” Hub Brew Counter’s tap list is still in development. “Our dream would be to have HILL FARMSTEAD [BREWERY beers] on draft,” Tomczyk says. For now, it will include four draft beers and local kombucha, along with wine, craft cider and sunset views of Willoughby Gap. A behind-the-bar grill press will be used to make simple dishes such as panini, and the Hub may host food trucks if the opportunity arises, the siblings say. But Tomczyk emphasizes that outdoor gear and service is her primary business.

on the eastern shore of Maryland. He met a guy at a bar who told him about a good kitchen job in Nantucket. Ben had never heard of the island. “Call this Frenchman up,” he was advised. “But beware, he’s pretty tough.” The Frenchman, Jean-Charles Berruet, offered Ben a job as a pot washer at the Chanticleer, one of Nantucket’s venerable special-occasion spots. He was paid $1.75 an hour, with a portion taken out of each check and returned if he finished the restaurant’s summer-only season. “French food was something I’d never seen,” Ben says. He loved the job. “All we did was talk about food,” he recalls. “[Berruet] would take us out fishing, bring us ducks for dinner.” The next summer, he asked Berruet to hire him again. Berruet said yes, if Ben could find him a Maryland connection for soft-shell crabs. Ben found one. “So I started an apprenticeship” at the Chanticleer, he says. The hours were long. Six days a week, he was cleaning fish at 7 a.m. and working until 11 p.m., with a break in the middle of the day. Six years later, he was promoted to sous chef. In 1979, Sarah, fresh out of high school, heard about dishwashing jobs at the Chanticleer through her sister, who had rented a room on Nantucket from Ben. The youngest of seven kids, Sarah, unlike Ben, had always had an interest in food. “In our house, if you wanted sugar, you had to make the sweets,” she says. She loved baking cakes and cookies. “I still love it,” she says. “It’s not like coming to work. It’s like coming to play.” Sarah got her plane ticket to Nantucket “and never turned back,” she recalls. She and Ben fell in love at the Chanticleer, where she focused on pastry making and he on savory dishes. At the end of each summer in Nantucket, Berruet asked Ben and Sarah, “Where do you want to go this winter?” They’d pick a city, and he’d find them a job at a French restaurant there. Together they traveled to San Francisco, Miami, Boston, Stowe and Sugarbush Resort. When their Chanticleer apprenticeships wrapped up, in the mid-1980s, Ben and Sarah moved to Burlington to start anew on their own. “We liked Vermont. It was affordable,” Sarah says. Ben got a job at the Ice House Restaurant. Sarah worked at Lake Champlain Chocolates, which had a bakery at the time. The Woods hoped to open their own restaurant serving European-style fare, but they found too much competition

in Burlington. Middlebury, where that niche hadn’t been filled yet, fit the bill. In 1986, they opened the Otter Creek Café & Bakery in the Old Stone Mill building that currently houses the Storm Café. The mill sits right on the edge of the rushing river, hence the name. They offered a wine selection, table service, the whole shebang. But “it was tough to make a living,” Sarah recalls. Today, the mill bustles with Middlebury College students; back then, that part of town lacked even sidewalks and street lamps. “People’s cars were getting burglarized while they were eating,” Sarah says. Even now, she adds, it’s difficult for her to visit the neighborhood “because so much of my heart and soul is down there. We put in a lot of sweat there.” In 1989, the Woods bought an old Esso station on College Street “for a song” and gutted it to house their bakery-café. Two years later, they sold the bistro in the Old Stone Mill to focus entirely on the bakery. OCB has been going strong ever since. On a recent morning, bakers are making 400 croissants — enough to fill the glass cases and a special order from the college’s French department. That much dough requires 25 pounds of butter. The morning shift starts early — really early. Bakers Cindy Denis, Caroline Corrente and Esther Bove show up at 3:45 a.m. Around 5:30, the mood is cheerful but focused. There’s no music in this kitchen, just the gentle rattle of the giant 60-quart stand mixer, full of sloshing honey and oats. A mound of French bread dough rests on a worktable. Bove pulls a tray of breakfast pizzas from the oven. The bakers have to be out by 11 a.m. to make way for the lunch crew. “We make everything here,” says Sarah. “Ben is the savory, I’m the sweet.” She still uses the techniques she learned at the Chanticleer, she says, but the recipes are all her own, putting “creative twists” on classic pastries. Whatever the Woods can’t sell at the end of the day goes to HOPE, the Addison County food shelf. They pass along their compostables to local farmers. Bread scraps turn into croutons. “We don’t make anything I don’t like,” Sarah tells me, dipping petit fours filled with almond and apricot in a bowl of silky fondant. “And we follow our hearts.” m

Last Sunday, May 15, the farm hosted its first Pranzi, a family-style, multicourse luncheon recalling a languid Italian afternoon spent enjoying food and drink. And this Saturday, May 21, Agricola will launch a farm-to-grill barbecue series with flame-kissed meats, bruschetta and Italian vegetables. Can’t make it this weekend?

Saturday, May 21, marks the return of chef COURTNEY CONTOS’ pop-up dinners, a series of monthly feasts served at the large farmhouse table at CHEF CONTOS KITCHEN & STORE in Shelburne. Though her main focus is cooking instruction, Contos says she relishes the creative catharsis of the pop-up series. “It’s fun to get these ideas out of my system and just cook … like I’m cooking for friends,” she tells Seven Days. “I’m not instructing. I’m just feeding people.” Each menu will highlight a different world cuisine. This weekend’s Mexican-focused meal features braised chicken

with Yucatan black chile sauce, traditional sopes and coconut rice pudding. Upcoming dinners will explore cuisines such as Cuban and Greek, sometimes with guest chefs cohosting.

The induction honored the chief’s 30-year career in the maple industry. During that time, Marckres has served on two international maple boards and cofounded the Maple Grading School. The latter has trained hundreds of regulators, producers, packers and consumers on maple grading since 2002. For this work, Marckres has become the industry’s go-to guy for issues regarding maple flavor and overall quality. In a phone call on Monday, though, he was humble about his status. “It was quite an honor,” he told Seven Days. “Part of the way I try to do my job is to educate and train people.” On May 12, CABOT CREAMERY received a U.S. Dairy Sustainability Award for its work in renewable energy production at BARSTOW’S LONGVIEW FARM in Hadley, Mass. There, a $2.8 million anaerobic biodigester converts manure, food scraps and production waste into 2,200 megawatt-hours of energy annually. That’s enough energy to power some 250 homes for a year, or to make a year’s supply — 50 million pounds — of Cabot butter.

s the sun set last Thursday evening, a crowd gathered at Bleu Northeast Seafood in Burlington. Upon arrival, guests received a flute of bone-dry, apple-scented Vermont bubbly, fermented in Newport by Eden Specialty Ciders. Near the door, John Brawley, a tanfaced, brawny shellfish farmer, shucked oysters. His thick fingers moved in a deft pop-pry-swipe movement, turning sealed mollusks into ruffled pools of brine. Guests splashed them with tangy mignonette and slurped with glee. In early fall, Brawley broadcasts tiny oysters into Duxbury Bay, a sandbarprotected cove just north of Cape Cod. Though his Sweet Sound Oysters grow within spitting distance of national raw-bar staple Island Creek Oysters, he explained that varied water flows and nutrient flushes give the skirted bivalves different nuances in flavor than their well-known neighbor. “It’s subtle,” Brawley said, “but there is a difference.” Such conversations occur when seamen serve shellfish directly to consumers. The practice is uncommon, even near the coast. It almost never happens in landlocked states. But the notion of fostering such connections was what brought dozens of local food producers, thinkers, activists and organizers to Bleu for a Slow Fish Benefit Dinner last week. Proceeds from the four-course meal will help send 13 Vermont delegates to the biennial Slow Food International conference — the Terra Madre Salone del Gusto — in Turin, Italy, this fall. Founded in 1989, the global organization has initiatives in 150 countries, each with the mission to preserve local food cultures and traditions while cultivating interest and engagement in the foodsystems web. In Vermont, most of Slow Food’s work is about agriculture and local food access. With the nearest coastline hours away, most of the fish that Vermonters eat — aside from local freshwater species — come from beyond state lines. Since each ocean flows into the next, and massive international firms broker annual catches wholesale, most seafood is harvested, processed and sold through worldwide channels. Even relatively

Doug Paine

WHEN PEOPLE CONNECT THE DOTS BETWEEN SEA AND PLATE,

THEY CARE.

“local” fish — perhaps caught off the coast of New England — often crisscross the globe between net and plate. Burlington-based fisherman Anthony “Captain Tony” Naples is working to change that. A boatbuilder and lifelong fisherman, Naples heads to Alaska for salmon each summer. Five years ago, he began to ferry his catches from sea to consumer under the label Starbird Fish. Naples is one of just a few dozen fishermen doing direct sales worldwide. In Vermont, you can find him at farmers markets and retail outlets such as City Market/Onion River Co-op, Healthy Living Market & Café and Hunger Mountain Coop, where he regularly offers tastings and demonstrations.

“A huge part of what I do is educate people about fisheries, fish and seafood in general,” Naples told Seven Days via phone last week. Starbird’s process is labor-intensive. Naples personally catches, ships, processes and sells each fish himself. But that legwork builds accountability into the product, he said. Since large Asian companies own most of the world’s fish-processing plants, most seafood — regardless of where it’s caught — goes to China

for processing. “We just don’t know what’s happening to that fish,” Naples said, adding that many processors rely on chemical applications and long-term cold storage to stabilize product until it reaches retail markets. Sometimes, that’s years after the fish was caught. So that “New England cod” you bought at the grocery store? It may have been fished off the coast of Massachusetts, but it likely traveled to China and back before you snapped it up. “People just go to the store and get [fish] from a cooler, and the sticker says ‘Product of the USA’ — or Indonesia,” said Bleu chef Doug Paine on a sunny afternoon earlier last week. “But that’s just where the boat came in. People need to know where it came from.” That day, the chef was casting lines into the mouth of the Winooski River. A camera crew took footage for a promotional piece looking at his work with sustainable seafood. Unlike produce and meats, which are usually farmed, most seafood is still wild-caught. And since fish populations are vulnerable to factors ranging from overharvesting to oil spills to global warming, “[Seafood is] something we really need to protect,” Paine said. “It will go away if we don’t treat it well.” At Bleu, responsible sourcing is a top priority. “People need to know their fishermen,” the chef said, tossing a line into the water. Often, that means serving species that may be unfamiliar to many diners. That’s hard, Paine admitted, “because everyone wants shrimp cocktail and crab cakes.” When Bleu opened two years ago, it offered neither, lacking a consistent, conscientious vendor for those species. It took a year and a half to find a steady crab source, he explained. Paine often swaps lesser-known fish for well-loved, overfished or otherwise threatened species, such as halibut and sea bass. When guests ask for red snapper, for example, Paine offers ocean red perch. It’s a smaller fish but similar in color, flavor and texture — a fact that Bleu’s servers must explain over and over. Diners are generally receptive to trying

local fish packer after he started the Vermont Cranberry Company in East Fairfield. These days, he moonlights on a boat out of Rye, N.H. He met Naples at the Burlington Farmers Market three years ago. Naples needed cold storage and fish-processing space; Lesnikoski had room to spare on his farm. Last summer, the two partnered on a lobster-roll cart, which made regular appearances at Friday-night Truck Stops, hosted by ArtsRiot in Burlington. This year, they’ll up the ante with a full-on food truck. Retailing fish directly to consumers means the fishermen can command several dollars more per pound than wholesale fishermen, whose prices are dictated, top down, by international markets. “[Fishermen] are totally beholden to large companies that control prices,” Naples said. “It’s so unnerving. You’re about to go out [to sea for months] to harvest this food, and you don’t know what you’re going to get paid for it.”

an unfamiliar fish once they’re assured that it’s not so foreign. The vast majority of Bleu’s fish comes from coastal New England, Lake Champlain or the Canadian Maritimes, via trusted channels. Paine’s one nonregional exception is Alaskan wild salmon, which he gets from Naples at Starbird Fish. This spring, Naples and “Cranberry Bob” Lesnikoski attended the Slow Fish convention in New Orleans. While there, Naples said, a group of direct-sales fishermen noted that “we’re kind of the spokespeople for this sustainable fishing industry.” From a consumer perspective, buying fish from the person who caught it means you can ask questions. Rather than coming from some unnamed boat trolling faraway waters, Starbird’s fish comes from a real person who is integrally involved in every step of the process. And that means Naples can set his own prices. Lesnikoski grew up fishing in coastal Connecticut and worked for a

When people connect the dots between sea and plate, they care. At Bleu, Paine said, “People want to eat something that’s good for them and good for the environment.” Most people in the food system regard such conversations as the front lines of the sustainable food movement. And special tasting-style meals like last Thursday’s dinner are hotbeds for intersystem dialogue. Paine hosts similar themed events once a month or so at Juniper or Bleu. At the benefit, the food and corresponding beverage pairings came courtesy of local movers and shakers including the fishermen noted above, as well as Vermont Brewers Association president Sean Lawson (of Lawson’s Finest Liquids), Eden Specialty Ciders’ Eleanor Leger, food activist and Miss Weinerz doughnut maven Ren Weiner, and Brio Coffeeworks owner Magda Van Dusen, among many, many others. Over sips of sparkling cider and nibbles of Rhode Island calamari — which was encased in effervescent cornmeal and so tender you could easily cut it with a fork — conversations meandered from fish to forest farming and permaculture. My tablemates talked books, community food education and feeding the hungry. We discussed how to funnel excess produce from local farms into hospitals, schools and prisons, and acknowledged that Vermont leads the nation in many of these practices. “I think the fact that we’re [a] small [state] allows us to do these things,” Weiner said, assembling a bite of Starbird salmon with crunchy sprouted beans and ramp-tinged crème fraîche. Vermont’s small size makes for tight, strong communities and facilitates open dialogue that can yield meaningful local results. All of which represents the heart of the Slow Food mission. When the final savory course arrived, the room quieted, aside from a few oohs and ahhs, as guests savored Lesnikoski’s plump Rhode Island sea scallops. Seared golden on the outside, they were served with a heap of pork-studded mushroom pappardelle. As I contemplated the mollusks’ milky internal sweetness, I recalled a comment from Slow Food Vermont board chair Ann Cromley earlier in the evening. At events like this, she said, “We gather. The gathering matters. What else is there, really?” m

have the most fun is writing and translating on our own records. So we thought, How do we approach that same mind-set on these Bowie songs? We’re using them more as motifs and hooks. We’re using lyrical phrases we liked, but we’ve joked that it’s almost like we’re doing remixes. It’s all in the spirit of doing honor to Bowie. And, hopefully, we’re approaching the songs in a way that evolves them even further. I would love to think that, after I’m gone, someone would be able to take those liberties with my music, as well. I think it’s a beautiful thing to continue the work when you retranslate music. ALEX TOTH: For a specific example, Kimbra took the song “Bring Me the Disco King,” which I’d never heard before. Bowie was a pretty jazzy guy, and the recording had this brushy, jazzy drum thing with jazz piano chords. So we’re doing a funk-driven version of it. So far, we’re up to six local saxophonists on it. [Laughs] And then Dre Idle is making a big Disco King puppet, and she’s got six Bowie-esque silver-clad lackeys that are going to accompany the puppet. I don’t want to give too much away, but it’s kind of a séance for the Disco King.

SD: Really, it sounds like you’re filtering Bowie through the prisms of Rubblebucket and Kimbra. KJ: [Laughs] Exactly.

ince David Bowie’s death in January, countless tributes have been made to the Thin White Duke — the man, myth and legend. Entire encyclopedias could be filled with the amount of copy that has eulogized David Robert Jones, analyzing every fantastical nook and cranny of his music, acting and personal life. And there have been musical tributes galore, from dance parties and cover nights at small local clubs to star-studded blowouts on the grandest stages in the land. The latter include David Byrne, the Roots and Kimbra opening the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2016 concert with a cover of “Fame,” and last month’s two-night extravaganza at Radio City Music Hall and Carnegie Hall in New York City. This Saturday, May 21, at the ECHO Leahy Center for Lake Champlain, Burlington will experience a Bowie tribute unlike any that have come before it: “Farewell, Starman: The Music of David Bowie Re-imagined.” The show is a collaboration of Rubblebucket’s Alex Toth — who performed with Mumford & Sons at the Radio City Bowie tribute — and Kimbra. Toth is spearheading the project and has enlisted several of his

Rubblebucket mates, as well as guitarists Steve Marion and Christian Peslak (Delicate Steve) and drummer Jason Nazary (Bear in Heaven). Local guests include vocalist Kat Wright and the drum and dance collective Sambatucada!, among others. Signal Kitchen is presenting the show as part of the Full Moon Masquerade series. That means that all manner of other musical, theatrical and artistic oddities await costumed revelers — and, yes, masks are mandatory. In other words, it’s a tribute fit for a Goblin King. Seven Days recently caught up with Toth and Kimbra by phone to talk about the show. SEVEN DAYS: The project is described as “reimagining” the music of David Bowie. What does that mean, precisely? KIMBRA JOHNSON: We wanted to be able to take liberties with the songs and not just play them straight. But what I think connects all of us as musicians is that we’re all producers as well; we make our own records. Doing Bowie songs is one thing. But I think where we

SD: Nifty. Are you focusing on specific eras of Bowie? KJ: I feel like we’re covering a lot of eras. One of my favorite albums is Reality, which I don’t think anyone knows, so I thought this would be a cool opportunity to dig into that. But we’re doing some of the classics, as well. And I think we both have had different entry points into his music. AT: Definitely. We’re doing a song from his most recent album, as well. And I think we might be covering the weirdest Bowie song ever released, “African Night Flight.” It’s insane. SD: And it sounds like you’re not just reimagining the music, you’re reimagining Bowie’s theatrical qualities, too. AT: One of the things about Bowie is that his acting and performance is completely inseparable from the music. I’ve always been really interested in that. SD: You were both part of other Bowie tributes recently, correct? AT: Kimbra did “Fame” with the Roots and David Byrne at the Hall of Fame thing. And last minute I was asked to play with Mumford & Sons at the Radio City thing. It’s been cool to see, like, Kronos Quartet covering Blackstar with Amanda Palmer. Michael Stipe CH-CH-CH-CHANGES

Then there is the Super Nova Disco Den. The official tagline here is: “Wonder what it’s like to dance in zero gravity?” I presume that means the absence of gravity, not that revelers will be sloshing around to house music ankle deep in Green State Lager. But, hey, you never know, right? Meanwhile, at the Moonbeam Theater — are you picking up on the space theme yet? — the cosmic crew from Radio Bean will present theatrical performances of “the dramatic, comedic and tragic varieties.” I’m guessing that means LEE ANDERSON in JARETH THE GOBLIN KING’s giant codpiece — FYI, that’s Bowie’s character from Labyrinth. Which might be the only kids’ movie in history with a prominently featured codpiece. But, again, I’m just guessing. At the Film House of the Cosmos, take a breather and watch one of several films specially selected for the evening. I’m kind of enjoying the guessing game here, but I’d put my money on Labyrinth, The Man Who Fell to Earth, The Hunger, The Prestige and Zoolander. Finally, check out the Pisces’ Patio & Voyagers’ Veranda. Those are outdoor spaces featuring performance art and, best of all, views of the full moon.

with the Bowie tribute. In the middle is a band that’s quickly becoming near and dear to local music fans, ARC IRIS. Led by JOCIE ADAMS, formerly of the LOW ANTHEM, Arc Iris have made Burlington something of a second home. They appear fairly frequently at local juke joints such as the Skinny Pancake and the Light Club Lamp Shop — and they put on a terrific set at Waking Windows 6 two weeks ago. Given Adams and co.’s affinity for bizarre sparkly attire — and provocative art rock — they seem like a natural fit to be the meat in a Bowie tribute sandwich. As you probably know, ECHO is a huge and unconventional venue for a show, with all sorts of nooks and crannies. Each of those nooks, and even a couple of crannies, will feature all manner of intriguing discoveries. Take the Bloomoon Room, for example. Here you can expect to find a variety of intimate, low-key performances. Most of the lineup for this room has yet to be unveiled, but the names to know are experimental composer GREG DAVIS and CRAIG WINSLOW, who are presenting an immersive, drone-y multimedia experience. In layman’s terms, it’s gonna melt your brain. In a good way.

Before we begin this week’s column, I’d ask you to turn to page 68 and check out the interview I did with RUBBLEBUCKET’s ALEX TOTH and New Zealand-born indiepop songwriter KIMBRA. I’ll wait… Pretty cool, right? For those of you who didn’t bother to follow my very simple request, in that piece Toth and Kimbra discuss the ins and outs of “Farewell, Starman: The Music of DAVID BOWIE Re-imagined.” That’s the wildly creative Bowie tribute show they’re curating at the ECHO Leahy Center for Lake Champlain this Saturday, May 21, with a band that includes members of Rubblebucket, DELICATE STEVE and BEAR IN HEAVEN. And it’s gonna be bonkers. Also, the show is a feature attraction of everyone’s favorite (or at least mine) debauched bash, the Full Moon Masquerade. That being the case, lots of other fun stuff is on tap for the night. The Q&A with Toth and Kimbra centered mostly on Bowie — and me trying really hard not to be smitten with Kimbra’s delightful Kiwi accent. So let me fill you in on what else is in store once the moon is fully waxed. (See: bonkers, gonna be, above.) As mentioned in the Q&A, the musical portion of the main stage show will open with Kimbra’s “space moon jam,” an improvisational freakout featuring her and the rest of the Starman band.

Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes « P.68 did the most moving version of “Ashes to Ashes.” SD: On a more personal level, what are some of things you appreciate most about Bowie’s music and life? KJ: There’s so much. You develop a new appreciation for David Bowie when you start analyzing him in this way, sitting there learning his lyrics. I’ve always found his lyrics provoking and interesting. But I’ve never sat down and really worked out what he’s saying. And it’s been fascinating analyzing that side of what he did, and how he could be quite abstract and random, yet hit these profound moments of clarity. So I appreciate him even more now. I also appreciate the freedom in his music. He’s all over the spectrum and exploring so many different things. There’s a fearlessness in so much of his work. And the more I see that, the more I get inspired to be like that myself in my work. AT: I had never dug this deeply into Bowie before, because he was always this mystical figure to me. And when you dig into how it all works and explore it, you see that he was uncompromising from start to finish. He always knew what he wanted to do, and it’s fucking wild. It was always cutting edge, and that’s really inspiring.

KJ: I started doing these improvisation sessions last year in LA, and then I brought it to New York. And I found musicians who were into that spirit of improvisation. So I write some music the night before and then kind of go into the spirit of writing a song in the moment, taking random ideas and really trying to find some structure in them. It’s sort of a quantum physics experiment: What happens when you put hundreds of people in the room, and how does that affect the content? So I’ll be doing that with Alex and the band. And I think that’s a fun way to celebrate Bowie, as well. Because I think that was so much of his spirit, there was such playfulness in his music. AT: Oh, and there’s a full moon that night. So we’re all gonna howl at the moon. m

REVIEW this Old Sky, I Miss the Blue

(SELF-RELEASED, CD, DIGITAL DOWNLOAD)

Andrew Stearns and Shay Gestal seem to have a thing for color. The primary architects of the local Americana outfit Old Sky released their debut recording in 2015, Green on Fire. That EP presented a sparse take on (mostly) acoustic twang, shaded by themes of love and loss and set to the mournful hues of Stearns’ downcast vocal rasp and Gestal’s elegiac fiddle. Recently, Old Sky released a follow-up EP, I Miss the Blue. Perhaps not coincidentally, Stearns was also a founding member of local whiskeygrass band Gold Town. So, yeah. Colors. While the new EP bears some of the same nostalgia heard in their debut, it’s less a sepia-tone print and more Kodachrome. In other words, the presentation here is vibrant, yet still harks back to a bygone era. The EP opens on “Silver Dagger,” which Stearns refers to as a “locally

sourced cover.” It’s a traditional tune, but the arrangement comes by way of noted Vermont fiddler Neil Rossi. Fittingly, Gestal’s fiddle is featured front and center, taking the melodic lead alongside Josh Halman’s fluttering mandolin. Gestal also provides pretty vocal harmony in a duet with Stearns. Though already a fine player, she seems freer and more confident this time around. In the opening stanza, Gestal tweaks the melody with a sour bend that nips at the ears. But it’s intentional, framing the song’s dark, gothic theme of wayward love. “Honey in My Coffee” is the first of three Stearns originals. Couched in lively Appalachian stomp, it could pass for another trad tune. Gestal is again featured, this time letting loose energetic fiddle lines that flit and swirl with abandon. Perhaps she snuck some of Stearns’ joe from the second verse: “Put a little whiskey in my coffee, and I’ll drink it down.”

marimba, Chorney’s light thrums sound almost harp-like, heavenly. In contrast, “Svirel Bells,” based on a field recording of church bells in Slovenia, takes on a more exotic, ethereal tone. Only occasional chirping birds tether the listener to the earthly plane. Boxall calls “Too Long” the “most tightly composed piece on the album.” It may also be the strangest. It’s built upon a field recording that happens to skip in a five-beat loop. Over this, Boxall layered marimba parts bowed with a doublebass bow. It’s fascinating, if jarring. Fortunately, what follows is the sweetest and most straightforward cut of the record: a rendition of the Benji Hughes song “Oysters,” voiced by local chanteuse Miriam Bernardo. Field Notes closes on “Antifreezeup.” The field recording here is of ice shards blowing around on a nearly frozen Lake Champlain. Chorney’s prepared guitar and Boxall’s use of mbira and tank drum emulate the fractious crackle of ice. It imparts a sense of barren chill that makes one long for the warmth of spring and the promise of new beginnings. Field Notes by Jane Boxall is available at janeboxallmarimba.bandcamp.com.

structure. In punk, Boxall is bound by the rigidity of meter and two-minute songs. In her classical pursuits, she is bound by composition, even if she is the composer. So, for Field Notes, she wanted to try something new and unrestrained. With a little help from her friends, Boxall found her muse for these seven songs on scratchy field recordings made with an iPhone 3 in Milton, Vt., and Slovenia. Field Notes is a conceptual album, but its concept is open to interpretation. A collaborative and improvisational work, it relies on the interpretations of its collaborators. On “Here You Are,” vocalist Julia Josephine Sloan adds a chorus of contrapuntal vocals over a field recording of improvised marimba. “Milton Bells” was built around a recording of church bells. Over this, producer-engineer Michael Chorney adds his signature prepared guitar. In concert with Boxall’s

SUMMER/FALL ON SALE NOW!

In a recent email to Seven Days, Burlington expat and percussionist Jane Boxall writes that her latest album, Field Notes, is a “springtime album.” Indeed, it was recorded in May 2015 and released in May this year. But it’s more than merely a seasonal coincidence. “Forget about January 1,” writes Boxall. “Spring is the start of the new year.” Field Notes is an album of new beginnings. Queen City fans likely know Boxall best from her time drumming for the local punk bands Doll Fight! and Black Rabbit. They may also be aware that she’s a classically trained marimbist with a doctorate in percussion from the University of Illinois. In other words, Dr. Boxall is a highly educated and trained badass. She can pulverize a drum kit and coax harmonious, intellectually complex patterns from a marimba. Which she did on her fascinating 2012 solo album Zero to Eight Mallets. Though those disciplines may seem disparate, they have one thing in common:

The title song comes next and represents the finest showcase of Stearns’ songwriting. The melancholy ballad evokes the wintry chill of a broken heart through the delicate lyrical use of color. “I miss the blue and the look in your eyes / When winter has covered the hours of life,” Stearns sings. Then, “Pale becomes the stillness that beats through the night / I miss the blue that’s with you on the other side.” On “Hard Wood to Chop,” Stearns and Gestal take us to the woodshed with a fiery banjo, fiddle and guitar instrumental. Stearns proves as talented a picker as he is a vocalist, not just hanging with Gestal’s exquisite runs but matching her note for note. Intriguingly, given the penultimate cut, I Miss the Blue ends on an a cappella rendition of the traditional “Never Grow Old.” The contrast between the instrumental and vocal tunes is stark and beautiful. It brings into sharp focus just how multitalented Old Sky are, which might make some listeners green with envy. I Miss the Blue by Old Sky is available at oldskyvt.bandcamp.com.

A New Hope

BRANDY CLARK has penned country hits for the likes of Kacey

Musgraves, the Band Perry, Toby Keith, LeAnn Rimes, Keith Urban and Reba McEntire, among others. But, unlike the vapid pop fare that has overtaken country in recent years, Clark writes with a keen ear and reverence for the genre’s traditions. That’s evident in her own widely acclaimed albums. Her 2013 debut, 12 Stories, scored two Grammy nominations and was lauded by the likes of Rolling Stone, NPR and the New Yorker for its cunning, intelligent twists on country convention. Touring in advance of a new

al Lane’s art is all about dichotomy — in fact, multiple dichotomies. She invites the contemplation of opposites, even what it means to oppose. An exhibition of Lane’s work in plasma-cut steel and mixed media leaves the mind reeling, as most visitors to her current show at the BCA Center would attest. Recently departed curator DJ Hellerman made the wise decision to include just a few pieces — five sculptural works and an installation — in order to give each of them breathing room. That is, visitors have the necessary physical space in which to contemplate, digest and reflect upon what these works convey. Masculine and feminine is the most obvious binary in Lane’s creations. While that’s an easy target, the Canadian-born artist addresses it in her unique way: by cutting doily-like patterns into heavy, once-utilitarian pieces of steel. The process has got to be harder than she makes it look. In “Sweet Spill” (2010), an oil drum lies horizontally in the gallery, a floral motif excised nearly all the way around its perimeter. The pattern continues on the bottom, and a splash appears on the top. In front of the drum, the “spill” is manifested in curlicues of two-dimensional steel on the floor — in fact it resembles the tendrils of unfurling ferns. Lane conflates blossoming nature with the implied ruination of an oil spill, subtly introducing another contrast. Next to this, “Fabricate” (2001) presents three sections of rusted I-beams cut through with repetitive circular patterns — a different one in each piece. The beams are set at intriguing proximity, two on the floor angled away from each other, the third leaning casually against the wall, as if left behind by workmen at a construction site. Though the materiality of these pieces is clearly weighty, the fussy decorations give them an unexpected, almost preposterous delicacy. To anthropomorphize, they are both obdurate and yielding. Domesticity and industry is also contrasted in these works — though that interpretation,

Laced (As Pure as New York Snow)”

“Sweet Spill” (left) and “Fabricate”

too, distills into inescapable gender stereotypes. Lane provokes us to think more deeply with her two wall-hung works, “Infrared Illumination” (20 by 38 inches) and “Mortar Horses” (20 by 32 inches). Both were crafted in 2011 from former ammunition boxes — one still retains an orange, diamond-shaped label that reads, “EXPLOSIVE 1.2 G.” Again, the artist incorporates floral motifs, and avian ones, as well, in her metal cutouts. But “Infrared” also presents within this backdrop a figure with a cudgel, seemingly in the act of beating a crouched figure before him. That primal representation of aggression is consistent with the source material yet contrasts with the dainty filigree effect. Lane’s title for the piece is enigmatic. “Mortar Horses,” also cut from an ammo box, depicts a central figure,

ostensibly male, with arms outstretched, each hand gripping the reins of a winged horse. It gives the sense simultaneously of awful power and wild rebellion, barely contained. A mythological theme is fully embraced in “Gutter Snipe” (2011). At 82 by 238 inches, this is the largest of the exhibition’s metal works, made of cut steel and corrugated pipe. Essentially a long, gently curved shape set against a wall, it forms a passage that gallerygoers can enter, minding the “Sharp” warning sign. Lane has covered the piece with negative tattoos; that is, cutouts of figures including a satyr, winged cherubs and a shepherd-like character with a staff. There are creatures, too: meanfaced dogs, raptors with wings spread wide, unicorns and … rats? Definitely some unattractive rodents. The overall

appearance of this piece is pretty, like a giant pierced-tin candleholder. But a closer look suggests a cross between medieval armor and geomancy. The archetypes on its surface are off-putting,

VISUAL ART IN SEVEN DAYS:

powder to create the impression of, well, 15 white tablecloths lying on the floor. Knowing this, however, only partially answers the question How did she do it? Trying to figure that out is an absorbing conundrum for viewers. Into one side of the pattern, Lane pushed a sharp-edged swoosh. Visually, the disruption creates intriguing tension. Conceptually, “Laced” suggests domesticity, and the civilized ritual of setting an elegant table (never mind that euphemism for cocaine in the title). It’s startling to find this elegance on a floor; it’s bittersweet to realize it will be swept up and discarded at exhibition’s end. This impermanence, after all, speaks to an altogether different order of contrast: life and death. Lane’s skill in her creations is extraordinary, but “Traditional Culprits” is, in the end, an object lesson in how we see, and think about, the dichotomies around and within us.

but step inside the structure and it offers a sense of protection, a shield. Unlike the artist’s “Filigree Car Bombing” — a 2007 commentary on terrorism not included in this exhibit — the import of “Gutter Snipe” is less obvious. But given its title, Lane has perhaps created an elaborate homeless shelter. In the back room of the BCA Center, Lane dispenses with steel altogether. “Laced (as Pure as New York Snow)” is all pattern — 15 nearly identical patterns laid side-by-side on the floor. In previous exhibitions the artist has used dirt for similar installations, but here her medium is powdered sugar — mixed with borax to discourage insects. Lane’s template was a lace tablecloth, through which she sifted the

Jupiter Gallery in Middlebury, the Boston- and New York-based painter uses oils to create collagelike scenes of birds and birdwatchers. While both human and animal are frequently rendered with the lifelike precision characteristic of traditional oil paintings, Rosenkrantz’s graphic sensibility and use of fragmentation are decidedly contemporary. She asserts these works are about forms of surveillance on several levels, including “boys watching girls and … girls feeling watched,” and the increasing government surveillance of citizens.

LIVE PROFESSIONAL SUMMER THE ATER

movies Money Monster ★★

odie Foster’s latest directorial effort is a festival of tonal and thematic confusion. (It requires nearly as much effort to sit through as her last one, the 2011 Mel Gibson-talks-to-the-hand embarrassment, The Beaver) She evidently forgot that the 2008 financial meltdown had already provided film fodder for more than a dozen features — from Charles Ferguson’s Oscar-winning documentary Inside Job (2010) and J.C. Chandor’s star-studded and suspenseful Margin Call (2011) to last year’s Oscar-nominated The Big Short. The director treats the crisis as though it were breaking news yet proceeds to report less insightfully on the story than the slightest of Money Monster’s predecessors. To make matters weirder, Foster apparently couldn’t decide whether she wanted to make a scathing indictment of Wall Street greed, a media satire or a race-against-theclock thriller. In the end, her indecision proves inconsequential, as she fails at all three. George Clooney is game as Lee Gates, the host of the eponymous financial advice program that’s clearly modeled after Jim Cramer’s “Mad Money.” Cramer, you’ll recall, came under scrutiny after hawking the virtues of Bear Stearns stock to viewers just days be-

fore the company tanked. In Gates’ case, the crash cow is a vaguely sinister multinational called Ibis Clear Capital, which has somehow just lost track of $800 million, and whose cartoonishly sinister CEO, Walt Camby (Dominic West), is MIA aboard one of his luxury jets. Julia Roberts costars as Patty Fenn, the show’s producer. When a stranger suddenly wanders onto the set of the broadcast, Gates, Fenn and the three cameramen — never mind the studio’s security staff — appear unconcerned. Not a terribly realistic touch. All that changes, though, when the angry young man named Kyle Budwell (Jack O’Connell) pulls out a gun, starts popping off shots and produces an explosive vest for Gates to don. If Kyle takes his thumb off the detonator, the host and half the building, we’re informed, will be blown to kingdom come on live TV. Turns out, Kyle invested in Ibis stock every cent of the $60,000 his dear departed mother left him, based on Gates’ rave endorsements. Now he wants … well, not what you might think. Gates immediately offers to repay the broke father-to-be out of his own deep pockets. An Ibis rep quickly matches the offer. But money won’t buy the blue-collar bomber happiness. What he wants is an apology from Ibis’ CEO. Again, not a terribly realistic touch.

PANIC ROOM Foster’s preposterous hostage drama reveals how little she learned about creating suspense from masters like Fincher, Scorsese and Demme.

Roberts makes the most of a role that pretty much confines her to the control room. She whispers helpful hostage-crisis hints into Clooney’s earpiece and makes frantic calls to Ibis staff in an effort to track down their boss, hoping to convince him to offer an on-air mea culpa. It’s Foster, however, along with screenwriters Jamie Linden, Alan DiFiore and Jim Kouf, who owe an apology. The film’s unrealistic touches mount. The disorienting shifts in tone have the viewer sympathizing with the heavily armed everyman one minute and laughing at him the next.

The film lacks even trace amounts of suspense. Money Monster pays little in the way of entertainment dividends. Recall the Clooney of Up in the Air (2009), itself a trenchant cinematic response to the financial crisis, or the Clooney who directed, cowrote and starred in Good Night, and Good Luck (2005), also largely in a television studio, and you can’t help but wonder what persuaded the star to invest his time and talent in a junk bond of a jumble like this.

Green Room ★★★★

ust how many rounds does that gun have left? What spoken command will make the attack dog attack? How long do you have to choke a very large bouncer before he passes out? Modern action films don’t generally address these kinds of nuts-and-bolts questions, because they take place in a heightened reality where events rarely respect the laws of physics, let alone the facts of what violence does to human bodies. Cartoonish mayhem has become so routine on screen that there’s something a little fascinating about a violent film that does seem to take place in our world, more or less. Writer-director Jeremy Saulnier’s Green Room is such a film. Its plot embodies one of the oldest horror-movie tropes: Outsiders venture into a remote, insular community and pay the price. In this case, the outsiders are a punk band called the Ain’t Rights (Anton Yelchin, Joe Cole, Alia Shawkat and Callum Turner) who are trying to scrape up enough cash to get home from an unfruitful tour. When they’re offered a gig in a rural Oregon stronghold of neo-Nazi skinheads, they’re desperate enough to take it. After the show, one of the Ain’t Rights has the bad luck to stumble on the aftermath of a murder.

BAND ON THE RUN A punk band finds itself in a tight spot on enemy turf in Saulnier’s borderline-horror thriller.

owner who is grimly determined to keep his own little collective of “true believers” intact. Casting Patrick Stewart — better known as Star Trek’s Captain Jean-Luc Picard — as the paterfamilias of the skinheads was one stroke of brilliance. Another was depicting the antagonists as bad people who calmly and matter-of-factly pursue their goals, rather than as drooling backwoods psychos. When Stewart delivers his instruc-

tions to his flunkies with the demeanor of thoughtful gravitas that we’re accustomed to seeing and trusting in him, the results are all the more horrifying. Saulnier’s breakthrough indie film, Blue Ruin, was a chilling portrait of a vagrant seeking revenge with more enthusiasm than competence. Character development isn’t his strong suit as a writer, and viewers seeking a hero or a journey in Green Room will be disappointed. At most, it has survi-

vors, and their survival is partly a function of luck. Still, these aren’t the paper-thin characters of a slasher flick; the believable dialogue and acting ensure that we cheer when the band members try a winning tactic and gasp when someone meets a gruesome end. And there are several of the latter. Green Room isn’t a film for people who dislike violent films. But it is a film for people who like violent films enough to wish they could be a little smarter — just so we could see what happens when our tolerance for nastiness is pushed to the limit. The setting is claustrophobia inducing, the shooting artful, and the tension unremitting. The deaths are all the more painful because no one gets a sentimental send-off — the survivors are too busy surviving. And yet, for all the blood spilled, the most powerful shot in Green Room is one where Saulnier surprises us by defusing rather than escalating the conflict. In this non-programmatic genre flick, any one of the mundane concerns mentioned earlier — the condition of a gun, a dog, an evil lackey — has the power to reverse the course of events. It’s the rare attention to all those wildcard factors, and to the frictional drag of reality, that makes Green Room so oddly satisfying. MARGO T HARRI S O N
