    I'm glad you're not letting that stop you. You can get a TON of food in the suburbs with above ground beds and containers. I have a tiny yard and grow hundreds of pounds of food each year. I've spent the time over the years to identify the varieties that thrive in the microclimate of my yard, the type of gardening I can do in my yard and the growing season we have here. I even grow CORN in whiskey barrels! And not tiny suburban corn you see in a typical backyard. Look at how tall the corn is!

    Here are some pictures taken of the last many years. Pictures you see of piles of veggies are typical harvests every few days or so during the height of the season. Like the picture of the cucumbers is what I picked DAILY last year, for weeks. That was without a trellis. I ended up with around 130lbs of cucumbers last year.

    I move things around each year like a mini crop rotation but grow where I have good sun.

    Right seeds, good sun, right water, right nutrients, you can grow anywhere.
