Re: taxes and the best place to vegetable garden?

Actually, the soil in the hill country is pretty rocky.
The alluvial plains below it tho' are good, but then there is the danger 
of tornadoes and bad storms.

There is a reason I live in the upper areas West of IH-35. The hilly 
terrain breaks up the winds. The worst I've gotten here in this house in 
20 years is a couple of bad hail storms.

I garden in all raised beds and containers.
