Fall is here and we have already received a winter blast in zone 4, freezing blooms and putting an end to the growing season. It is one day later, the high is fifty degrees and the next several days we will experience spring like temperatures.
We have experienced low precipitation levels this year, our snowiest months of March and April fell extremely short creating extreme drought conditions leading to a devastating fire season and changing our habitats forever. In my own little corner of zone 4 I have planted drought tolerant species and I can take solace as I consider my environment, the impact I have made and what I can personally do to make a difference when the weather will not cooperate.
