    West coast would be fine. California grows over 50% of the fruits and nuts, and 30% of the vegetables for the entire US. The “farm belt” states mostly grow cash crops for animal feed, energy production, and overseas export.

      But how would eastern California go? I feel like if states were breaking from the nation, that eastern California is risky to go with the red half.

      California farm country is loudly libertarian. And most of California. Not just yellowbelly flags, but coin operated toilets at fuel stations. Not kidding. The west coast is only blue in the cities.
