Duvall farmer navigates flooded farm after historic rainfall

People in western Washington are still feeling the impact of all the rain and flooding from earlier this week. Even though water has started to recede, it'll be days before levels are back to normal.
However, the work doesn't stop for farmers like Jeremy Turner.
"Typically, a bad flood like this, that'll shut down the roads. The water will come in a day, stay in a day, and take a couple days to disperse," Turner said as he navigated a boat over acres of land covered in water.
It now takes him 30 minutes to reach his property to take care of his cattle to keep operations afloat.
His farm, Flooded Riveranch, is nestled next to the Snoqualmie River in Duvall on NE 138th Street. When he bought the place two years ago, Turner knew extensive flooding was a given. Many people see water-covered land and think how terrible it must be for everyone. Turner has a different perspective.

I drove by some farmland today that looked like the sea. The flood waters do bring in silt though that makes for good growing soil.

Flooding brings all those much needed nutrients to the flood plains.
Makes for some good soil.
