Yup.  I'm still working on it but only trees really work for me,
though I get other things in smaller amounts.  Lettuce and green
onions equal to our needs.  Most years lots of bell peppers.
 
Current project, source some plant warmers and better seedling pots
yhat I can use year after year.

 
The United States imports about 15% of its food supply or
$204 billion worth.  People fucking around in their backyards
are never going to make up for that.

Cindy, tank you for saying those of us who enjoy a food garden as a
hobby are 'fucking around'.  I'm sure we will all stop because you
don't like it.

I'm not asking you to stop.  I'm asking you to realize that Americans
will never grow enough in their back yards to make a dent in the
amount of produce consumed in this country.

From what I've seen, the vast majority of people don't grow anything,
except maybe a herb here or there. I doubt this is different in the
US.
