The landmark being Wickard v. Filburn which established that grain you grew on your own property and sold to no one, using it to feed his family and animals act

The landmark being Wickard v. Filburn which established that grain you grew on your own property and sold to no one, using it to feed his family and animals actually fell within the Commerce Clause because if he didn't grow that wheat he would have bought it in a store, and the wheat in that store would have likely crossed state lines, so wheat he grows on his own property that never leaves his property nor is sold is actually interstate commerce
