Hi,
I have some questions for homesteaders in the wettest parts of the Northwest. These questions would be for people in any of the following counties and any other areas getting 80+ inches of rain a year:
Oregon
Clackamus, Clatsop, Curry, Hood River, Licoln, Linn, Marion, Multnomah, Tollamook
Washington
Chelan, Clallam, Clark, Cowlitz, Grays Harbor, Jefferson, King, Kittas, Lewis, Pacific, Pierce, Mason, Skagit, Skamania, Snohomish, Wahkiakum
Being that you are located within temperate rainforest I know that trees grow like they are on steroids and you do not have to worry about forest fires or drought. What I would like to know is how well do your gardens grow? You must have mold and fungus problems, how do you deal with them? What are the pros and cons of gardening in these soppy conditions? The next thing I would like to know about is how dose your livestock cope (worms, hoof rot, etc.)? What breeds of livestock have you found that thrive in these conditions? What are the pros and cons of owning livestock in the wet Northwest?
Thanks
John
