A Laboratory for the Local
Atlantic Public Media began its life as the founding organization for public radio stations WCAI, WNAN and WZAI on Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, Brewster and Nantucket, known collectively as WCAI. APM is actively involved in the daily life of the station, providing regular programming and special feature content (both local and national) for broadcast.
Creator Elspeth Hay, along with editor Viki Merrick, takes us to the heart of the local food movement to talk with growers, harvesters, modern pioneers, harvesters, cooks, and visionaries.
In 2021, staff, friends, and supporters of WCAI/NAN joined founder Jay Allison for an online celebration of the station’s first two decades.
In addition to local voices, Jay was joined by public radio’s Ira Glass, Jad Abulmrad, and other national figures who have been friends to APM and the station.
