This is not intended as "how to grow all your food you ever need at home".

It merely provides the vegetables.

You still have to get your grains (and therefore the majority of your calories) from somewhere else.

I feel like the beekeeping is wasted effort if you’re going for self-sufficience.

It’d be like including a space for a liquor still. Super neat in concept, enormous effort in practice. Hell I’d be more in favor of the still over the beehives honestly, way more utility.

Don't forget that wax is super useful in a self-sufficient setup for prolonging the life of leather and wooden items. I've even used to protect my bike chain!

If I’m already getting the leather and wood from a neighbor, I reckon I’ll leave the bees to someone else as well! hahah
