I tried to shorten my food chain. 107 degree Fahrenheit weather and $100 per month in water made it ridiculous to try to grow my own food.

    You could try living somewhere other than hell.

    There's ways to mitigate the amount of water used and it's retention in the soil.

    I also frequently have temps in the 100's in the summer here - it's meant that there's just certain things I can't grow and some that are risky. But there's plenty of veggies that can handle that kind of heat.
