Whirl 30 min drive is a days walk.. half a days bike depending terrain. A walk that far with food would be risky even if armed if you had to do it.
Farmed animals and crops changed us from cave nomads to civilization. Crop failure ends civilization too.
Without a animal you control how will you compete against the 100 or thousands of city people for same resources? Big city they can’t gather but they can rob you on way back. Single source of food what happens when dogs start going feral from city? Not like anyone stopping them from rabbit hunting in park.
Whirl you give good advice on the gunsmithING, this sounds like you have given up, always a way through under or around. Using one costco steel rack some plastic and a south-facing window you could do enough micro green in nunavik for a family of 4 except the total dark time without additional light.
If the can grow enough on both poles to feed staff, no reason you cant. No environment harsher than that. For soil you can make it, look up recipes for humus soil there are many ways for each area with local plants.
Mass heater rocket stove version you heat once maybe twice a day if extremely cold takes 30 min for it to heat ie you feed kindling in then it radiates heat for up to 3 days. While you tend your plants you feed the fire 45 min a day for fresh greens is minimal work.
Can’t cut wood no time? You can buy pre cut or buy coal, just use a coal burning Insert. Always a reason not to, only reason to do something is you consider it worthwhile and make time for it.
