Across the Fence is a daily, 15-minute television program co-produced by University of Vermont Extension and WCAX-TV, Channel 3. It is the only program of its kind in the United States, and airs weekdays at 12:15 p.m. on WCAX. The majority of programs are videotaped in the studio in advance of airing, with a studio host. Some programs and segments are videotaped on-location for later broadcast.

The daily Across the Fence audience is approximately 18,000 to 20,000 households, ages 45+, and from across Vermont, northern New York, western New Hampshire and southern Quebec.

Across the Fence covers a wide range of issues and topics; however, its primary goal is to inform viewers about activities being conducted by University of Vermont faculty, staff and students which benefit viewers and their communities.

Watch on WCAX Channel 3, Mon. - Fri., 12:15 p.m. (EDT)
