Rainfall means green fields in Bureau County

Rain finally came to Bureau County in late May and thankfully hung around into June long enough to finally give the entire county much needed moisture. The crops responded instantly, and even though summer has just begun, I believe everyone had a collective sigh of relief. It has been nice to hear folks talk about how many inches of rain was received instead of how many tenths of an inch of rain was received or how the rain was headed their way but just seemed to go around their farm.
