I've grown my own food to a degree.
If you enjoy doing it as a hobby then it's great. If not (like me) then give it a pass. If you're worried about chemicals and stuff like that then buy organic. You'll still come out ahead.
Exceptions might exist for guys that have a fair bit of cash and enjoy automating things just for the hell of it. Small scale agricultural irrigation can actually be kind of fun, but again, if it's not something you implicitly enjoy then don't bother.

The public will judge a man by what he lifts, but those close to him will judge him by what he carries.
