With all the crazy bullshit going on, I’ve often wondered how realistic it is for people to leave the city and farm. Like going the Amish way. I have zero knowledge other than my garden, so I’m looking for more information.
Have there been any good studies or analysis of how realistic it would be to abandon modern work culture and return to farming?


Correct, you need planing permission to live there and if the land has that it will cost a lot more than I can afford.
I would be allowed to buy it and put the cabin there, up to a certain size anyway. I could even sleep in it a few times. But living there is illegal. You can only stay overnight 28 times a year.
