ding to the Farmer's Almanac “If there is no wind on New Year’s Day, the summer will be dry; if there’s a good breeze, there will be rain enough for a decent crop.”The Farmer's Almanac is full of this kind of stuff, but I never know if it's true. By the time the results are in, I forget what the forecast was. This year, though, I am going to test it out. New Year’s Day was not windy here in Springfield, not one bit. So if Farmer's Almanac wisdom is right, we are in for a dry summer. Looks like we are gonna have to get those rain barrels hooked up as soon as the weather turns fair.
ADDENDUM: Not to let the Farmer's Almanac off the hook, but it was exceedingly windy on the day we made the no-till bed by the fence (Dec. 30) and again, on Jan 3.
