About
Paige Browning is a news anchor and reporter for KUOW Public Radio, covering breaking news and stories of significance in the Puget Sound region. Paige's work is featured on KUOW's airwaves daily, and she is a backup host for KUOW's drive-time shows and Seattle Now podcast.
A native of the Northwest, Paige takes special interest in stories about climate change, our changing culture(s), politics, and law. Paige's work has been featured on the NPR newscast, All Things Considered, Here and Now, the BBC, and local public radio stations throughout the northwest. She has lived and worked in Spokane, Missoula (MT), and Seattle.
Her specialty is writing news under a one day deadline, but she's also stepped onto wildfire scorched land, rappelled from a building, and been to the heart of protests for stories.
Paige likes to run, bike, camp, and linger around at art exhibits and concert venues, and thinks the Seattle Storm are the city's best team to see.

How P-Patches foster Iu Mien community
Seattle's P-Patch community gardens are in rest mode this time of year, but the gardeners are celebrating a huge success right now. Community gardens just wrapped up a year in which they donated 33,000 pounds to local food banks. That's about 60,000 servings! To celebrate, we’re looking back on a story from last year. 2023 marked the 50th anniversary of Seattle’s P-Patch Community Garden program. For the Iu Mien ethnic group, these small farms sustain a big share of their family’s food. We’ll meet some of them and hear their stories.
