Plants are autotrophic and produce "food" in the form of simple sugars through he process of photosynthesis.
Physically the process of photosynthesis requires: light (not necessarily sunlight), Carbon Dioxide and water - and releases oxygen as a byproduct.
While the plants still rely on external sources of nutrients (macro and micro elements) in order to perform other necessary metabolic functions.

Why does a plant cell have on large vacuole?
In plant cells, large vacuoles are needed to store water. In animal cells, other things are stored in the vacuoles including food and waste, therefore there are many small vacuoles. The main reason plant's vacuoles are so big is to keep the plant from bursting. Plants can absorb too much water. Without the enlarged vacuole, the plant would burst.
