the property of rain is to wet

here at Soulton Hall, we’re experiencing that property in all its heavy-handed glory. Recent downpours have transformed our usually verdant fields into a challenge.

While the rain is essential for the land’s long-term health, these heavy falls present a challenge to our farm!
