Foxy Lady: we have areas where there is high amounts of bentonite.. so if you are a home garden grower lover.. you have to really check out the soils around the property.. before purchasing the home.. I remember that one house in Greybull had lots of bentonite in one part of the back yard.. luckily the back area was huge.. when bentonite gets wet.. it acts like quicksand.. and pulls you in.. James lost many shoes in them.. haha..
