Focus on Food

How does your garden grow? If you’re smart it grows well, with healthy fruits and vegetables to supplement your food budget.

If the gardening bug hasn’t bitten you yet, you might want to check with your friends and neighbors to see what works well for them in our climate. Collect their tips, as well as suggestions from the local agricultural extension service.

Offer to relieve friends and neighbors of their overabundance of zucchini, tomatoes, etc. And then check out the prices at the grocery store for inspiration.

Savvy families freeze or can their yields to enjoy year round. If you have the space and time, a garden can save you and your family a lot of money on food expenses throughout the year.
