July is here and according to the National Drought Mitigation Center our area is in a "moderate drought." While our SAP Community Garden has a wonderful and convenient water supply, and many folks are mulching, our gardens can get stressed out with the lack of moisture and excessive heat. There's some great information on dry weather, heat wave and drought at the University of Minnesota Extension's website: http://www.extension.umn.edu/administrative/disasterresponse/wi_drought.htm
Check it out and help you and your plot survive the hot and dry times!
