Good evening everyone,  what length of a 6 lane motorway would be needed to provide a family of 4 for most of their vegetable and fruit needs for the yet? :wub:

Cheers,  Tony. (wub, what the heck is wub)???

I should say only about 20 ft.   But it would be quite difficult to cultivate and there might be a lot of damage from passers by.   ::)

I’d stick to grassy central reservations if I were you  :nowink:

Aunty, you are quite right, but I think that gardening outside those grassy reservations might be possible!  I think you could do it with Dowding-style no-dig beds, since digging would be out anyway.  They would probably need to be raised beds, and if the lanes between raised beds are wide enough, you might be able to set up toll booths, thereby turning a profit.  That only works if lanes are parallel to traffic lanes of course.

Problem-solver, that's me.  :)  You're welcome.  :wub:

You could even make a little bridge over it, have smart tech to advise on the correct speeds for various circumstances and a little parking area with a police man to catch any thieves! ::)
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.
