Is gardening really worth it financially? The answer is a resounding “yes!” The cost of food is going up, and if you figure in what you spend on fuel and time to obtain that food, you’ll see how you could help your budget by growing at least some of it. Whether you live on a 40-acre property or in an apartment, you can grow food, and in doing so, save money and even the environment. But before you can figure out how much you can save, take a serious look at how much you currently pay and, just as importantly, whom you’re paying. Factor in your time, and the cost of getting to the supermarket.
