This wheat field along the west side of Celina-Mendon Road contains huge bare patches and standing water in some areas. Much of the wheat that is still alive is brown. Though not widespread, some of the county's wheat did not fare too well over the winter and in recent weeks when a spate of freezing weather damaged some of it further.
