I doubt subsistence farming will work out for one in a thousand city people if they have to start from scratch. It takes about one year to get new ground to produce right and I think that even if they try, very few will even subsist one year. Almost all farmers will be glad to help good people plow and cultivate adequate size gardens to get started but when it comes to the necessary supplies, I can barely afford my own. And there is no rich farmland for the taking or cornucopia of excess food; it’s all spoken for already. I want to let ya’ll know that you better prepare beforehand to have the means to actually produce food on your own because I think those supplies will be very expensive or nonexistent when Hussein’s paradise comes into full bloom. And I should have added some firepower even if you are a gun free zone metrosexual who doesn’t want to end up being some cute darling predators food.
A tiller and some packets of seeds with no skills behind it are just a way to die hopeful.
