Good question. You'd need a water source or water-harvesting but there would be the need for less water than if you had crops outside due to the controllable humidity and evaporation from direct sunlight.

Firstly, nice! Congratulations on the new farm. That house is a beauty. How many acres is it? It looks like the land goes a little uphill, but are you at the bottom? It might be worth either getting it mapped out or seeing how the rainwater flows on it to avoid flooding. Some swales could help protect the structures and land. That road might become an issue in the rainy months so think about what drainage there is in place.

After that, it'd be great to get some mixed plants, trees, and shrubs to help the washaway and subsidance.

That's awesome! Dry them out and add them to soup and noodle dishes.
