The warm winds of spring are blowing across the prairie, and Charlotte finds out that Heather Creek Farm has been voted Adams County Farm of the Year. She is thrilled, but shes not sure shes up to the task of organizing an open house to celebrate the honor, and when heavy rains cause Heather Creek to rise quickly, its not just the open house thats in danger. Hannah and Frank Carters fields start to flood and only quick thinking will save their home.Christopher is thrilled to be able to use his weather station to monitor the extreme weather, but Emilys upcoming birthday threatens to be a painful reminder of everything theyve lost. Meanwhile, Sam is developing a new interest at school—her name is Arielle. And when an injury sidelines Charlotte, the long-awaited open house may be a washout.
