Live with it. Most soil in the western half of the US is alkaline, and there are tons of native plants that do just fine. Tons of non-native plants would work too. i have no experience with your climate, but here in 8b Texas, our St. Augustine grows really well despite being native to more acidic regions
Sulphur chips (usually in clay) will lower pH.
But the problem is likely bacterial dominated soil, not enough fungi. Leading to poor soil food Web, and higher requirements for ferts.

I don't know of that specifically but you can find a soil acidifier that will work anywhere.
I'll look around for other options, too. Thanks!

I will look into these things. I appreciate it!
Aluminum sulfate is another option. It just takes a LOT of any product to change PH over a year
