Just to grow food. I read down through your post, and it seemed like a lot of red tape to me. It is always under the guise of protecting the public. Whatever.
How would anyone know who has the jurisdiction? If you were new to an area.
I was thinking you were telling us, that to sell to the public.
How about for yourself and your family? Should be OK to grow?
You put a lot of work into this post. To dig out all the pertinent information for California urban growers will take some time.
Thank you for this good information.@anwenbaumeister

It is a lot of red tape, and can be super frustrating! Each area has different regulations, I would call your city first to check in with them, and then county.
To grow for myself and my family there are no regulations. Though unfortunately some cities have restrictions on front yard gardening for "aesthetic purposes" regardless of who is eating the food. It's time to change some of the restrictions...
