  WINNIPEG An early April snowstorm scheduled to hit Manitoba on Monday could bring farmers and firefighters some much-needed precipitation. Phil Veldhuis, president of Direct Farm Manitoba, said farmers are crossing their fingers for some moisture. It s been dry since really midsummer last year, no moisture at all in the fall or winter, Veldhuis said. I don t think it s affecting us yet, but we re super concerned about the growing conditions this spring.   Veldhuis is also the owner of Phil s honey. Like farmers, he s buzzing for some precipitation, as a lack of moisture could lead to a poor honey harvest. If plants don t grow, they don t flower, and then bees don t get nectar. I m just as needing moisture as anyone else, he said.
