This is simplistic, but do you have a job? How do you manage what it takes to do all this if so?

Second, you seem to have a lot of expertise. Where did you learn about planting, what can be planted together, and how to preserve what you grow?

Third, what's your growing zone? Do you have to deal with colder winters or dry summers?

I'm looking forward to more of your entries in this project!
