Gene, that's what we see here for the most part. The people who are concerned about their food are generally better educated and make a decent living. Sure we have some poor people here who garden but they grew up doing it so it's 2nd nature. Most of the bums here only want to grow one thing and it ain't food.
Some other poster made a comment that they have offered to let people get stuff from their garden in return for helping in the garden. The 1st time I saw something like that was a guy I was in the Army with. He owned a little place in the country near Ft Knox. He came into work one day (we were all SSG E6 or higher, instructors, 36 of us) and says that he and his wife had picked everything they were going to take from their garden and anyone was welcome to come out and pick what they wanted. Now a lot of the guys I worked with were always complaining about money. Most because they were driving new cars. Not one did anything except tell this guy he should pick the stuff and bring it in. My wife and I were the only ones who went out there.
Sense I retired we have been raising a garden. My one BIL and MIL come and help but another BIL thinks we should just pick stuff and bring it into him. He ask me this year again and I told him, "look you are family. I'm not going to tell you that you can't have any, but if you get some you are going to come out here and at least pick it". Didn't see him till long after the garden was done for the year and he comes out and wants to hunt.

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery.
