Audio Postcard: Morrisville, home of The Bee's Knees

Tuesday, 02/05/08

Jane Lindholm - Morrisville, VT

Morrisville is a small village in Lamoille County. It only has about 2000 residents. It's a picturesque, if bleak, filming location. Scenes from "Ethan Frome" and "Something Wicked This Way Comes" were both shot there. But there's nothing bleak about the community spirit in one of the downtown hangouts.

The Bees Knees has been attracting fans since it opened four and a half years ago. It's a small café that prides itself on local food, local art, and local music. We stopped by on a recent Friday night to hear Vermont musician Terry Diers and talk with people about what makes their town, and their favorite café, so special.
