  1. I used to think I'll eventually be able to grow all my own food in the garden/my food forest... but this year its been a major bust for me... already about to hit record annual rainfall halfway through the year here in Louisiana. Fruit keeps splitting before its ripe, have all kinds of fungal issues, drowning plants, etc... the annual stuff that does alright with the daily rain has such shallow roots from not having to reach for water, that the moment it stops raining they want to wilt. My chickens have all died from a mosquito borne virus, my bees cant forage for nectar because of nonstop rain all year, and part of me is like thank god I have the grocery store lol.. Probably need to do some major earthworks projects or haul in a bunch of dirt to do big raised beds for trees.. Keep trying to just woodchip the hell out of everything and the stuff keeps floating off!
