I wasn’t on your Island but been there. This was the last time quite a few years back still wearing my water proof nurses watch. You got a great garden going and a good barter system. We have lots of rivers here with salmon and other fish ducks and geese flying around and deer and bear if necessary and grow food too. Just not as close and convenient as yours which is good. It will probably come out sideways for some reason but that’s good it can get passed by tomorrow. Lol
Full Disclosure: That pix is not my yard… but that is exactly what the wild lot next to me looks like, and it keeps creeping over the fence into my yard. In fact, a few years back when I bought the place that is what my back yard looked like too, before clearing.
I get 150 inches of rain a year here and yes, stuff grows! I have a Taro patch (sorta like hawaiian sweet potato) and a couple of pineapples, beans, berries. Mountain apple, Lychee, Breadfruit, Lemon, Papaya, Avocado, Mango, Guava, Tangerine. On the fence is bittermelon and squash.
The problem is… this is the lava flow of 1840 on the lot. The trees mostly put down roots into cracks and grew that way. Most of the yard is a very thin veneer of organic that barely supports a lawn. I removed 30 junk trees in the back and had them chipped up and spread that among the stumps and uneven rocks in back. It is slowly decaying and supporting a lot of viney weeds that I cannot go over with the lawnmower, so those areas get the weed wacker. So I’m ‘deep mulching’ some areas for more garden space.
No… I won’t starve. Neighbor raises chickens for eggs, and a fisherman down the road sells regularly….. or I can go 2 miles down to the shore and catch my own. I selected the place as a survival platform. I’ve long been a student of ‘Long Wave Economics’ and I expected a great depression in my lifetime. Welcome to the future.
With these stay at home orders.
On top of causing stress which can lower the immune system to many they’re coming out of winter with less sun. Now they want to lock you inside. Sun helps make vita D through your skin. You know the benefits to your immune system.
