Start Date: 5/10/2025 -  
A pond on a Lee County farm has dried up, killing nearly 50 fish. The family worried that the well would go dry, too, like many other area wells have already done. The livestock and family both rely on the well for water, so the family rationed water and wasted as little as possible. They used bottled water indoors to reduce demand on the well.
