If you're willing to put in the work you can grow most of your veggies for an entire year on just one acre.

But that means you give up some weekends to weeding, picking, cleaning and canning. It's going to require some output on your part. And of course once you have all those veggies picked and cleaned, storage takes up a fair amount of space too. Canning in jars doesn't require extra power once they're sealed but you need LOTS of shelf space, preferably somewhere cool and dark.
