Special Projects

Fresh Greens
Terrascope Youth Radio teamed up with New Hampshire Public Radio, the Public Radio Exchange and youth radio groups around the country to create “Fresh Greens: Teens and the Environment,” an hour-long youth-produced special that has so far been licensed and broadcast by 10 stations across the U.S., from Seattle to Austin to Cape Cod. You can learn more about the people behind the program here and you can listen to it here.

Boston Children’s Museum Green Audio Tour
Terrascope Youth Radio’s teen interns produced the official audio tour of Boston Children’s Museum’s newly renovated facility, a LEED Gold certified building. The tour is available preloaded on .mp3 players at the Information desk, or at the museum’s website for download to your own .mp3 player. Information on the teens who produced each segment is available here.
