Some stuff you can def grow yourself easily and not have to buy at the store. I don’t have to buy tomato's all summer just from a few plants. Never buy herbs. But yeah sustenance farming I am not. Support local farmers!

Local farm has a dirt cheap produce subscription. $40 a week for locally grown produce!

That's super expensive... 40 a week for just veggies? I spend 40 a week on all my groceries at most.

Where do you live? I'm in central Europe and hit the local currency equivalent of 60$ per person per week...

I live in a quite expensive Spanish area and we usually spend 50ish for 2 people's worth of food. We do go out or order food on the weekend sometimes but being vegetarian we don't spend more than 15€ on produce a week at most so 40 a week sounds a lot.
