Share article

WOLCOTT – A “Made Here” episode titled, “Peter and Jane Flint,” premiered on Vermont Public’s PBS station at 8 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 16, and is available now on demand at vermontpublic.org/show/made-here/2025-10-16/peter-and-jane

The film, by Herb Di Gioia and David Hancock, follows a young couple in Wolcott in 1975 during their first year running a small dairy farm.

“Di Gioia and Hancock were key figures in the tradition of observational cinema,” said a note on the show. “In the early 1970s, the pair completed a series of films in this style called “Vermont People,” which documented life in rural Vermont and explored aspects of working class rural America.” The “Made Here” episode is one of those films.
