This is like if people who re into cottage core thought about what a homestead would look like, without doing any actual homesteading.

I've done it. I mean, worked a farm. Worked cattle, and a half acre vegetable garden, chickens and pigs. It's not for the faint of heart. It isn't for redditors and people who post on twitter.

That's not enough room for ANY of that. That veggie garden will provide for a few months at best, in optimal conditions. Less so if you're growing multiple seasons. The fruit trees take YEARS to produce anything worth harvesting. It takes more than two trees of a few varieties, which are in season at different times of the year. There's so much about this that doesn't work.

Fucking larpers man. Are they gonna post about it when none of that works?

yeah i was about to say it looks like a nice hobbyist project that would take a lot of effort, but at best that's going to be a supplement to your total food income and you're still going to be buying 80% of your groceries at best. Not that it doesn't make it worth it as a hobby but come on man, you can't subsist one person off that
