I would go for hydroponics and forget about the sun and climate and all that. The land is useless as it sits, although it can produce if everything goes right, which is not often since the global warming peak passed a decade ago and the Ice Age is upon us. The native land is also becoming non-productive and even the bears are coming into town, which is not what they used to do.
go for hydroponics<<<
That will work, but will you not also need extra light?
You say the ice age is here, [laughter on my part], Gore says we are going to burn up..........
LOL, not attempting to start a weather hot or cold fight.
We have had a fairly warm winter.
Only a few days of bitter cold, instead of weeks and weeks.
I am aware of your thought that I don’t know bitter cold, but in this old mobile, I use wood heat and cannot do so with the oxygen generator going, so go with no heat, as the small electric heater is a danger with old wiring.
So goes life, livable in 4 to 6 layers of clothes.
