We have one in my town. It's an old hardware store that has been there for over a century. There aren't even any old farmers around here but at this store, guess what. Old farmers. I don't even know where they come from. It's fucking awesome. You wouldn't even know anything was different about the store from the outside though. It looks extraordinarily inconspicuous near a pawn shop and a used car lot.
We have a 100 yr old hardware store too. For a minute I thought we were from the same town. But our used car lots are quite a distance from the hardware store, so, nah.
It depends on your location, but try to find out where the old farmers go to get their seeds.
What works easy peasy for me here is definitely potatoes and squash. Butternut squash are hardy. Also delicious.
If you want some greens that are easy, arugula (aka rocket.) They're a little spicy so the bugs don't eat them as much.
They go to the Old Farmers Seed Store. Of course.
