We have several vegetable gardens, so don't "farm" in the traditional sense. However, we have a very long growing season with the only really down time being July and August.
We harvest rainwater and hand water the plants we want to carry through the summer (tomatoes, peppers, herbs) and plant cool season vegetables in February and again in late September.
When we had the record breaking drought a few years ago, we had to let some plants go. Found out that record-breaking drought=heart break. One bright spot was that all the native plants survived. Now we try to go with natives in the flowerbeds, and whenever possible in the food gardens.
