I would need to own a decent plot of land to get that started. That and historically I have a pretty brown thumb.
Same here but once I actually put some care and love into a bunch of planters I bought, green thumbs grew on me.
This is what I'm trying to get into. But only because I'm REALLY into it. Growing things requires learning which means doing things wrong, which means killing things. I've killed more plants than I have successfully raised. But I've learned a ton in my free time over the years and now I have some friends with property. Been working on one for two years now and about to go start a larger project on the other side of the country.
My point is that you don't need land to "start", nor do you need to be a green thumb type. So don't let those hold you back.
You can garden anywhere. I did 2 years of gardening using free pallets and old buckets on a concrete parking spot in the city. It wasn't exactly productive but I learned key things in the process and got to eat my labor occasionally.
It's not easy, but if you're interested you can start growing things almost anywhere.
