Unbelievable..... No, strike that. It’s believable. This country has really gone down the crapper. I’d usually say, “God help us” but it seems he’s leaving us to rot.
This is a problem. Shall we see it illegal to grow food even for your own consumption, since it hurts the sales of grocery stores and government give-aways with SNAP/food stamps?
What garden? No, that’s a weed patch out back.
It is already retty much, if you believe, along with the US Judiciary, that Wilkard v. Filburn rulz.
"Filburn was ordered to destroy his crops and pay a fine, even though he was producing the excess wheat for his own use and had no intention of selling it."

I thought the Food Safety Modernization Act was dead.

Passively refusing to cooperate is not enough. What is needed to defeat a data mining operation is garbage data.
If enough people submit bad and conflicting data, not about themselves, but about other places, the data mining will be ruined.
So for example, list plants that do not grow there, like bananas and mangos in vacant lots, federal and state lands, inside buildings, etc. Imagine the statistic that shows Utah as being the biggest banana producing state.
Lots of plants already have intrusive regulation, so they would be a hoot to list as being grown as backyard crops. Like noxious giant hogweed, tobacco, or just ordinary wheat would make USDA inspectors jump in their cars and speed to where it is supposedly being grown.
And who says you can’t grow 5 acres of tomatoes in an apartment? Because you make your own sauce and you really like spaghetti.
If 10 or 15 people, using different computers hither and yon, inputted data like that, it would monkey wrench the whole corrupt machine.
They're coming for the gardeners now!

First they came for the flower gardeners, and I said nothing.
Next they came for the vegetable gardeners.....
Don’t forget the drones and the Hi-Res satellite shots. Googleearth, anyone?
Gardening ping!

Ha! I’m safe. Govmunt will never believe anything will grow on the rock pile I live on.
I’ve been raking rocks and turning them into fence posts.
I saw this earlier and added some keywords. Thank you so much for sending out the ping. Living here, I’d never comply. This is truly ridiculous, but then again ammo is getting banned by Herbert, and, after all it IS ILLEGAL to gather rainwater in Utah.*
(*You are now, as of last year, permitted to get a legal permit, allowing one to gather a few hundred gallons of rainwater, our benefactor’s gift to us peasants, just a small token of the government’s benevolence.)
