Harvesting Hay on a Wet Meadow, Nebraska

Ogallala Aquifer water springs forth from a wet meadow on the Haythorn Ranch in the Sandhills of Nebraska. These meadows, where the Haythorns annually put up 1700 stacks of hay using their horses, are said to be "sub-irrigated" by the water table near the surface. Springs form wherever any little dip reaches the water table.
