I live where you can get snow from October to May, and didn’t need to adapt much, just follow the same principle with some different plants. Squashes, potatoes, sweet potatoes, apples, etc can be stored during the entire cold season, you just need to know which varieties.

National Food Day Calendar 2019

I grow so many fruits that I have to can because I don’t have enough freezer space (I have two, plus the one in the fridge). I started with 1/3 acre (1,300+ sq m) of lawn, and now have a food forest, with plenty of perennials that are edible (that most people don’t even know about) after 12 years and got started when I was 60. So I don’t agree. The only adapting I did was selecting what to plant. Followed the book.
