This is not intended as "how to grow all your food you ever need at home".
It merely provides the vegetables.
You still have to get your grains (and therefore the majority of your calories) from somewhere else.

My home is on a 9k lot. Almost twice the size of this but I can't fit anything near that. I guess majority of my space is take up by the front lawn and driveway.
Your house is also probably a lot bigger than what's pictured.
"Can't fit anything because the space is taken up by empty space."
I mean ripping up a concrete driveway in a suburb isn't exactly prudent.
Well no, but it still comes across a bit weird to say
Right. The whole "you do have space it's just being used by something else"
And while I agree that the use of my lawn and driveway are not a good use of space, it's just not practical to have a homestead like the one shown in our current suburb. Which is what I'm assuming the 1/10th of a lot of land will be in. Because if you're anywhere in a rural area that can have a plot laid out in this style you'll most likely also be working on more than a tenth of an acre.
