How do you pronounce the name of the Waitsfield supermarket ‘Mehuron’s’? 2o3j44

One of the most common genres of questions we get has to do with local dialect and pronunciation. Today, thanks to question-asker Noah Waxman of Starksboro, we help settle a regional debate involving a beloved market in Central Vermont. Check out the web version of this episode to see photos from our reporting. Thanks to all the people who spoke to us outside the market: Brooke Haynes, Jo Palmer, Niclas Thein, Gail Helmer, Brian Albrecht, Karen Rookwood, Toby Bellows, Scout Vitko and Dick Atkinson. Special thanks to Anna Van Dine, Anna Ste. Marie, Celia Cadwell and, of course, the Mehuron family. This episode was reported and produced by Josh Crane, with from the rest of the BLS team: Angela Evancie, Myra Flynn and Mae Nagusky. Ty Gibbons composed our theme music. Other music by Blue Dot Sessions.
