              It is SO worth it. I lived on a huge fucking hobby farm (and was the only person able bodied enough to farm aside from my gf at the time and she had less inclination and endurance by a good bit to LARP as a peasant). Had like a kilometer to mess with and then a giant forest beyond that to work with. It was no where close to self sustaining but I did grow a fuck load of delicious veggies. Tomatoes are easily thr biggest gap between grocery store and home grown. Potatoes are pretty much the same, most onions aren’t too different. Bell peppers are about even, my indoor spicy bois I dunno cause theyre hard to get fresh in Canada. Carrots are a lot nicer. Grew a fuckload of pumpkins too, theyre good eatin’ and having a giant pumpkin patch for haloween was a goal. Cucumbers are more flavorful and less watery. They also pickle better. Tomatoes are the biggest change tho, some grocery store beefsteak tom is mid af and is good for a sandwich I guess. A fine tomato from a garden can be eaten like an apple.
