I agree - there were fruit trees around Lorien , there was the river , they were not on "you" with growing plants and vegetables so , we can say that Lothlorien was in a very economicly advantageous location that allowed them to be this self sufficient community .
And I do not suppose that a starved elf and a happy elf are two phrases that go together , though it says in the book that the Elves of Lorien were joyfull . But that`s just a thought ...
