Now that the weather is warming up, I’d like to personally challenge you all to start a small vegetable garden. There’s no harm in preparing for the local market to completely shut down, and it’s a great opportunity to ever so slightly liberate yourself from the chain of supply.

For those that already have one, please share some tips on what you think is best for beginners to grow and why.

Wheat and corn. Both can be used to make multiple food items, as well as distilled spirits.

The question was related to crops that I'd live off. I wasn't even thinking about earning a profit.

Wheat and corn are good choices. There are really only four potential choices: wheat, corn, rice, and potatoes. Those are the staples of life that feed the world.

Are you implying most modern farmers run profitable businesses as opposed to massively subsidized frankenfood production operations?

I live in rural farm country and I see first hand home some 'farmers' are quite literally destroying the land. Most environmentalists are raging leftwing retards, however, they aren't wrong about modern agro destroying the topsoil of their acreage, to the point where literally only monsanto poison could possibly grow.
