Congratulations! Your tactical vid's have been certainly been of value. Yeah, some of us have been doing the prepping, farming side for a lifetime. One REALLY needs to be working on the agricultural side...food/water or your screwed. Yeah, guns and gear are cool, but... As for chickens we keep Delaware's and Buckeye's in different chicken tractors. In the spring we switch the roosters and then collect/hatch which gives you a great foraging meat bird [red rangers]. The dairy goats and Jersey cows have their purpose as well. Remember, set it up with the idea there will not be a feed store one day...
A Clover cover crop will bring a lot of nitrogen into the soil. Buckwheat cover will also do a lot for the soil as well. Peppers like the heat, watch the water schedule not to much, or they'll drown out. Another note, Keep hot from sweet by a distance so the bees don't cross pollinate them haha Great video man! Keep up working on being a warrior in a garden! #skillset
For vining tomatoes you want an "indeterminate" variety. Bushing tomatoes are a "determinate" variety. This applies to cherries, beefsteaks, romas and all other tomatoes. -hydroponic tomato farmer
The word you're looking for is "autonomy." Look into Geoff Lawton's permaculture stuff. Chicken tractors, swales, etc. You should dig a small pond at the top of that hill and a series of swales with a pond at the bottom. It will cause moisture to accumulate and saturate that soil. Also look for somebody that does tree work in your area and tell them they can dump all their wood chips on your property. You'll improve the soil of that property 1000x covering every square inch you want to grow in with wood chips. The chickens will scratch through it eating all the little bugs and manure it at the same time and it'll lock a lot more moisture into the soil.

Impressive you took the personal stand at great cost… at least delayed
