    And that doesn’t even count the cost of materials to get started.

    Definitely not against gardening, me and my partners are in the process of getting our garden going in our new place, but dirt alone could easily eat up the cost savings if you have to build out your planters.

      Yeah I’ve had gardens all the way up until covid when prices went bananas because it wasn’t feasible anymore. I can buy from a farmers market for less than the materials/time/water. I need to build a gray water capture system.

      Now I just grow herbs and tomatoes.
