Farming is not practiced in the polar regions because of the harsh weather conditions like extremely low temperatures, and the snow. You could try it in the warmer seasons, but fishing and hunting would be much easier. Many plants especially ones that are harvested don't like it there because of low temperatures, and the snow and can't grow there. There would be very little nutrients if a plant was there. However, algae and moss grow there, but they are not edible.
