Wow some people are really lost when it comes to growing food. Buy soil? Make your own. Buy fertilizer? Not unless you farm large scale, otherwise a compost heap costs nothing. Collect some bones and let them set in the sun until they are dry, grind them up and make bone meal. Dried pigs/cows blood becomes bloodmeal. You can get all of this for free in small amounts at any slaughterhouse or butcher shop. Just ask. No containers? Don't be so fucking lazy, go to a grocers deli and ask if they have any food safe plastic bucket containers that you can have for free. You will have so many containers you won't know what to do with them all.
This shit isn't hard. Some think growing food in a container or garden costs a bunch of money and forces you to buy soil, amendments, fertilizers, and whatever else advertisers have convinced you is needed.
Seeds don't cost shit to buy. $20 in seeds will provide you with enough produce to keep you well fed for months.
Why don't you just make the argument that poor people are so malnourished that they don't have enough energy to move let alone start gardening. That would be more believable than arguing you have to drive far far away to some secret gardening center and buy everything at high prices which makes growing food in containers out of reach of the poor.
