Well, since there may be no worldwide distribution infrastructure, and
most societies will have collapsed, I'm sure the ability to locally grow
something will be very beneficial to the poor folks trying to scrape out
an existence.

Assuming that local warlords don't demand the crops as tribute; that
would be pretty consistent with human behavior in times of disorder.

Ah Yes all that cold and snow. so cold that the temperature in
Vancouver was 10 deg above average in February and so snowy that that
had to truck in snow for the olympics. Oh cold you mean when Alaska
breaks the old record for high temperatures for January and February.
Give it a rest. Sit down with a basic climatology book before you
prove beyond a shadow you are dumber than a third grader
