Comment on In this day and age is it possible to create a commune? With majority of vegetables coming from one acre and all put in to get wifi to our subdivision? So the bill is not that high?

Try looking for crops to grow that are nutritious but relatively low maintenance. Sweet potatoes, sunchokes, groundcover strawberries, asparagus, cherry tomatoes, etc. Bonus if you can grow excess to sell at local farmers markets for some extra income, though the easiest the grow ones probably won’t fetch a great price. Also, look for native options. Less maintenance, and local pollinators are more likely to help out.

If you’re not squeamish, rabbits breed very quickly and just eat grass. Chickens are good for eggs and meat.
