  • With any luck, your veggie garden is producing tomatoes, zucchini, beans and cucumbers and your flowering shrubs and plants are weathering the drought.
  • Nantucket wakes most summer mornings wrapped in fog, yet the island is deep in drought. With a sole-source aquifer and no neighboring town to lean on, water restrictions have divided the island between lawns left to go golden and lawns kept impossibly green by private wells.
