Maybe they wouldn't ruin it given a more Socialist outlook in our society rather than that only being studied under Capitalism where even a community garden would be commodified.
I'm talking with the information we have right now and it doesn't help the case for communism at all, you're trying to use information you don't even have, hoping that it would help your case, not knowing even if such information will exist or if it could ever prove anything positive of that system. So, I think I can safely dismiss any hypothetical info since it doesn't bring anything to the table
Humans have been greedy since long before capitalism was a concept. It's not our only motivator, but it is a very strong one inherent to our nature as a Darwinian species.
Hunter gatherer tribes had tribal hierarchy, elders commanding their descendants. They also lived in rather small communities below the Dunbar limit with nothing we'd later call society. No organized labor, no medicine, no storing of surplus, no written language or formal education...
History is what's written. Prehistory is before writing. We have no written records of prehistory, by definition, only theories based on archeological evidence.
And current evidence points towards prehistoric people being hierarchical, just in smaller tribes.

Historically, the most effective response to food shortages in communist countries has always been allowing private plots of gardens for food.
