The people who refuse to buy stuff at the grocery store and grow all their own food seem less and less nuts these days... :(

  Unless their soil contains lead, arsenic, cadmium, or mercury, which in a lot of places it does. Have your soil tested before planting a food garden.

    Doubly so if you were ever warned that your property may contain unexploded ordnance. That sounds shocking, but is a red herring. Unexploded munitions are a malfunction-- being warned about it means someone detonated a large amount of it in your area. Same goes for former/adjacent shooting ranges. Assume the soil is contaminated until tested.

  In what world is insulting self-sufficient and independent people acceptable? "Ah, these people who live life a different way, less reliant on incompetent government and malicious businesses are crazy fringe conspiracy nuts". Millions of people grow their own food for a plethora of reasons, yeah maybe everybody should just be eating poison-laced big box food because they don't want to be labeled "nuts", only to be proven correct time and time again.
