We have recorded no rain up at Community Roots since June 9th and it’s been the same here, just 10 minutes away but overnight there was some rain and everything looks just a bit brighter today. I went out early and caught some raindrops on plants and spider webs.

Finally a little bit. Even we had a tiny bit. Funny enough my soil is still totally dry.
Every drop helps though.

Yes, our soil was still like dust underneath a very thin dark and damp layer. As you say, every drop helps. 🙂
