Wonder if the PFAS water test kits are any good, or if I should just pony up the $500 and send soil sample off to a lab. Not that I could do anything about it. Still gotta eat.
Plant Hemp. It will grow fast and suck up most of those toxins and store them in the plant and roots. When harvesting just be sure to remove the roots and then till some compost back into the soil to fertilize it. You can easily get hemp from seed to full grown in 12-16 weeks.
Astonishingly enough, in my very, very flawed state, rain water collection is not only legal, there are tax incentives for it. Although with the way things are going, it’s probably only a matter of time before it’s made illegal as another means of control.
They’re already saying in some places the vegetables and eggs in your garden are contaminated with PFAS.

It’s great advice, but not if our local water supply is contaminated. I’d need more rain water collection than I have room for!
Don’t forget though that rain water collection is illegal in some places.

Ooh, yeah. That’s definitely a factor to consider.
