As we have often said - there's always something wild happening at Connecticut's only zoo - and 2022 marks the 100th Anniversary of The Beardsley Zoo. So we're kicking off a year's worth of zoo-centric segments with zoo director Gregg Dancho to learn about its history, and what's in store for this centennial year.

Then we're going to check in with a pair of conservation experts from the state's USDA office for a lesson on conservation easements - find out the many ways these land, water, and soil saving initiatives benefit our communities, state, and our environment.

And we'll close with a nonprofit eager to share the benefits of self-care through meditation - the Community Mindfulness Project. Could you afford to have a little more peace and less stress in your life? Stay tuned - we may have the solution!
