weekends with yankee

In this episode of Weekends with Yankee, Co-host Richard Wiese meets up with dune tour guide Rob Costa in Provincetown, Massachusetts, for an off-road ramble through Cape Cod National Seashore, taking in the magnificent views, and stopping to visit one of the famous local artists' cottage. Next, we travel south to Rhode Island and out onto the Narragansett Bay to hear the story of the century-old Rose Island Lighthouse. We then make our way north and board a ferry headed for the Maine island of North Haven, where we source local ingredients that will be part of a memorable meal cooked up in the kitchen of Nebo Lodge, an inn and restaurant that draws guests from around the world. Back in her home kitchen, Co-host Amy Traverso cooks up a cobbler made with real Maine blueberries.

About Weekends with Yankee:

WEEKENDS WITH YANKEE is a 13-part travel and lifestyle series named for the long-running publication enjoyed by readers across America for more than 80 years.

With New England among the nation's top tourist destinations, the magazine-style program takes viewers on an insider's exploration of the cities, countryside locales and far-flung places in the quaint and scenic region.

The series is hosted by Richard Wiese, (Born to Explore) , an Emmy Award-winning TV personality, author and explorer who has traveled to all seven continents, participated in two expeditions to Antarctica, and cross-country skied to the North Pole.

Amy Traverso, a senior food editor at Yankee magazine who has appeared on The Martha Stewart Show and the Food Network's Throwdown with Bobby Flay, joins Richard as co-host.

She highlights recipes, local flavors and the sense of community that make up the regions' food and dining scene.

WEEKENDS WITH YANKEE offers an "all-access" behind-the-scenes pass to the unique attractions that define the region, and the hidden New England that only locals know.
