Here is eastern Mass, I'm finding plenty of earthworms. Possibly not as many as in some other years, but possibly I just haven't been planting much. There's something about the rhythm of sticking my trowel into the sod that seems to pull worms out of the soil, but I haven't planted bulbs recently. At any rate, as I pulled out weeds this evening I pulled up several worms, as well.

Plenty of earthworms under mulch, but where weeds and trees have mined the
remaining soil moisture, the worms have had to go deep. We had less than
half an inch of rain in March, and looks like we'll wind up with just
under
an inch for May. The other 3 months of this year were just barely
average.
