last year I almost did not have a garden,
to little rain, worried about running the wells dry...
but I planted and watered everything anyway,
this year is less rain...
but I have way more motivation to want to grow food.
so I think back to my uncle's question of how to deal with where we live if the water goes away,
took me a few years to figure it out, and I never did get to tell him the answer before he killed himself ...
but I think I know now.
the answer is to grow summer crops in the winter in earth sheltered greenhouses.
