I'm not saying you need to grow enough to feed a village on 30min a day. After I got everything prepared I water every other day if there's no rain and spot weed when I feel like it. My goal was enough for like 50 meals from a small garden and anyone can easily supplement their diet without that much effort. Hobby vegetable farming and industrial agriculture are two different things and as food insecurity worsens and costs go up, it'll be a valuable skill to have. For me it takes more work to preserve the food than it does to grow it.

Sure, absolutely it's a great skill to have just in case. Ditto for preservation.
