## Resource

Central North Carolina’s drought is hitting hard—Wake County’s in severe drought, Durham and Orange in extreme—with farmers and gardeners scrambling to adapt. Rain barrels, selective planting, and water conservation are becoming survival tactics as tomatoes rot and plants shrivel. Despite forecasted rain, officials say it won’t ease restrictions, so locals are urged to support local growers by buying their produce—every bit counts in this tough year.
