I'm sorry to hear that! I just don't know how people live with out a good veggy garden. Bread and butter pickles are a favorite!
We've had a lot of rain but many of my beds are raised. Few years back my son got me some 4 ft dia x 10 ft long metal drain pipes that he cut in 1/2. He welded the ends shut (allowing drainage) and used cement blocks as a frame to mount them. I put a river of pea stone in the bottom, completely filled them with leaves, branches, straw and yard waste and topped them with over a foot with good garden soil (the weight compresses the afore mentioned compost). I have added additional manure and worms over the years.
It has done wonders for my back. Of course some plants needs space like corn and taters need room but the rest do well climbing on hog panels that form arches between each set of two.
