- Doc and I live in a rural township in the dry Mid North of South Australia on three town blocks giving us a total of half an acre. We endure extremely hot and dry summers only to be greeted with frosty mornings during our increasingly dry winter months. Despite this harsh climate we manage to grow much of our own food. Water is scarce and many measures are taken to utilise every drop we have. Our garden beds are shaded (during summer), heavily mulched, humus rich and most are now converted to wicking worm beds.
