Food- grow your own.
Obviously, if you have a backyard, you can have a garden, grow an apple tree, keep chickens and quails, ( Japanese quails are awesome) and do all sorts of things like collect rainwater. Use your imagination to think of how you could make a greenhouse. We ripped the roof off our existing shed, added clear poly panels- instant greenhouse. I have a friend that has a little alley between his garage and his house- he threw some poly panels on the roofs to bridge the gap, and hung tarps on the sides- instant greenhouse. Use what you have. Don’t have a yard? You can grow strawberries and tomatoes in pots on your patio. Grow herbs in a sunny window. You can grow stuff in a closet, if you don’t mind paying the electricity for grow lights. See if a friend will let you garden in their yard, and share the veggies. Make friends with a farmer, and swap services for food. theres always something you can do...
