Could possibly live off our land, but I would miss a lot!

Ok, so we'd have a enough veggies, lots of potato's and have a fair number of fruit tree's with bushes such a blackberry, gooseberry etc.
Local woods would provide seasonal treats such as mushrooms, birch sap and blueberries and wild plums.
Over all I'm sure we wouldn’t starve but the lack of grains for flour, so no bread or pastry and dont even want to think about no coffee, yes have tried dandelion ok but no caffeine.
Meat, well the bloody rabbits are always trying to raid the garden as well as roe deer, both taste good and are eaten by the whole family.

It's the things I couldn’t grow or hunt I'd miss, the list is too long to even start on.
