Press Pass – Austyn Gaffney

Environmental reporter Austyn Gaffney joins us on this episode of Press Pass to talk about the stories shaping Vermont’s landscape and the path that led her into this work. As a VTDigger journalist covering climate, land use, and environmental policy, she offers sharp insight into how these issues affect local communities. We also look back at her early reporting for The New York Times and how those experiences informed her approach to storytelling today. It’s a thoughtful conversation with a reporter who brings depth and urgency to some of the state’s most pressing topics.
