How did people living in castles get their food?

Answer 1

Castles were self sustained they had farms around the castles and food was taken from them - and prepared by their serfs in the castle kitchens :) there is a castle in Ireland called Bunratty Castle where you can go for a medieval banquet great experience they even throw someone in the dungeon lol .................

Answer 2

They grew it, bought it and forced people living on the Lords land to contribute to their stores.

The castle was an open place except for when being attacked by an enemy. Daily life wouldn't be too much different than you going out to the store. They had store rooms inside the castle walls to keep provisions.
