Official State Soil: Drummer 
June 20th 


Dear Nicky & Jess,
This land was once rolling prairie covered with wetland sedges and grasses. Today, it is covered with vast fields of soybeans and corn. We have these wildly productive Drummer soils to thank for abundant food production, and a few beautiful, wet prairies (we saw a red-winged blackbird in one!).

Yours truly,
Aunt Maude and Uncle Buster

P.S. We've ordered some ornamental sedges for the side of the house. Please read the planting directions this time. }
