Long term self sustaining food and water plans?

Ive seen wild raspberries in the mountains so I know those will grow. What about some livestock? My parents have chickens. Very low maintenance and they pop eggs out daily.

Sure raspberries grow in the mountains, but how much sustenance will they really provide for you?
I've eaten wild raspberries, and I tell you what, they were pretty delicious, and I wasn't scrounging around for food, near starving to death. I can only imagine how wonderful they'd taste if I were short on food.

Your definitely right, they probably wont sustain life for long. I was just adding to what others have mentioned as to what will grow.
