  • I’m not saying you need to grow enough to feed a village on 30min a day. After I got everything prepared I water every other day if there’s no rain and spot weed when I feel like it. My goal was enough for like 50 meals from a small garden and anyone can easily supplement their diet without that much effort. Hobby vegetable farming and industrial agriculture are two different things and as food insecurity worsens and costs go up, it’ll be a valuable skill to have. For me it takes more work to preserve the food than it does to grow it.


  • The goal I had for my first vegetable garden was to produce enough food to last a month. I was able to achieve that for under 50$ in parts. More recently I’ve been getting into fruit trees which has been a little more expensive because I’m not doing to grafting myself. You don’t have to feed the entire neighborhood yourself, and will like 30min of effort a day you can have more than enough for your own needs.
