Frugal Gardening:
A home garden is one of the oldest and most cost effective way to save
on the grocery budget. Even one prolific tomato plant will
save on that grocery bill. By choosing to grow our own vegetables,
fruits, nuts, or herbs in our own gardens, balconies, or in community
gardens (in some cities), we can eat fresh food at the peak of flavor
for minimal cost. Squash, spinach, and tomatoes often do well in
containers. Learn about more plants that can thrive in alternative
spaces, such as roofs, balconies, and windowsills, at
(containergardeningtips.com). If you don't have the space for a garden,
community gardens in your area can be found at (communitygarden.org).
Most of us can have some type of home garden. Depending on your space
available, you can choose which of the following fits your
needs and resources the best:
- Container
Garden
- Row Garden
- Raised Beds
- Square Foot
Garden
- Hydroponic
(Including an AeroGarden)
