Instead of running it like a base where people just find shelter that is relatively safer and still struggle to survive and eventually starve to death for lack of ability to scavenge for supplies themselves, we could provide shelter and a means of survival.
Moreover, we could teach cultivation to those who are talented and willing to learn, especially the young children. They are much more likely to master cultivation techniques than adults.
We could also plant our own food to ensure enough supply all year round. With wood-type ability users, we won't have a problem accelerating the growth of crops and ensuring that we have several cycles of harvest every season.
I have watched my mom train her wood ability. Accelerating the growth of plants helps to improve the superpower and also shortens the duration needed for crops to mature."
