If you actually want to feed yourself, just go to a Sunday market get 50kg of potatoes and plant them everywhere you can.

Low maintenance, hard to kill and great caloric yield.

Best to use certified seed potatoes so you don't introduce virus problems for anyone else growing potatoes in the area.

I guess you implied "at your home", but I do love the idea of guerilla gardening. Never done it with produce though, just flowers and trees.
