Monthly Roundup: May 2018

We’ve survived the Great Flood of 2018, and now the temperature is rising along with our excitement to go listen to some live music in some fields. May zoomed right past us, and we’re sure the coming few months will go even faster. So as we head into June and into the thick of festival season, just remember to take a step back every now and then and appreciate the summer days while they’re here. And make sure to keep your plants and yourself plenty hydrated.
