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.

The United States imports about 15% of its food supply or

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.

Cindy gets very nasty when she has low blood sugar, or when Trump is in power. I think one of the two must be the explanation. =/

We do not have a food shortage.  We import for variation of products
and for out of season goodies.  We export fruit in summer and import in
our winter, for example.  Overall, we export far more than we import.
The only charts that don't show us as the top nation exporting foods,
are the ones that treat ALL the EU countries as one, in which case they
have an edge.

This is the truth! Carol wins again. Fun fact, due to "climate hysteria" europe is currently in the process of buying up farmland and shutting down farms. So what ever position europe is in, you can be sure it will fall when it comes to its own food production.
Sometimes it is as if europe is just begging to self destruct. I really don't get the death wish you european politicians. =(
