Buy plants that do well in your zones and soil, that are easy to care for and will store well.
For example, Broccoli is good but only produces for a few months and can only be stored by freezing. Poor choice if you don;t have a big freezer or you have no power.
Corn on the other hand can be frozen, canned or dried and can be companion planted with beans and squash, each plant helping support the other.
Your life may depend on your choices is all I'm saying.
No biggie, right?
Are you looking for help with a question about your garden, lawn, finding a farm or anything agricultural? The solution is your local county extension agent from the Cooperative Extension office; and they're free! To find your local county extension agent's office, just click on your state on the map below! The Cooperative Extension System is a nationwide, non-credit educational network. Each U.S. state and territory has a state office at its land-grant university and a network of local or regional offices. These offices are staffed by one or more experts who provide useful, practical, and research-based information to agricultural producers, small business owners, youth, consumers, and others in rural areas and communities of all sizes.

Brilliant - S&F!
The cheapest I'd found was for one acre at $200 - this is 75% off! Many thank you's!
