Not really that hard? You also don’t have to grow 100% of your own food. It’s fun, you save the gym fees, and the powerful have less power over you. Plus we eat like kings even in times of crisis. No need to romanticise, it’s actually a really neat thing to do.
Somehow I know thank my parents who forced me to help them garden as a kid: I know that’s not fun and hard work. If you like it, more power to you, but I am happy to code hard most of the year. I can give a hand the day of the harvest if you want, but fuck having to tend raised beds or weed almost daily a decently sized garden.
Where does this romanticization come from anyway? It’s fucking hard work to have enough for the whole year.
