INFORMATIVE 
Tags: savings, money, gardening
There are many ways to save money, one way to save money is to have a garden. Here are some tips to help you save even more with gardening.
| | Save your own flower and vegetable seeds. Let some plants go to seed each year. Once you harvest the seeds and remove any debris, thoroughly air dry at room temperature and store in labeled envelopes. |
| | Join online or local seed trading groups. A wide variety of groups already exist. If you can’t find one to your liking, start your own. |
| | Trade seeds and plants. Organize a swap with gardening friends, or through a local garden group or farmer’s market. |
| | Start plants from seed. Put a shelf in a sunny window or install grow lights to get an early start with seedlings. |
| | Make your own compost. Convert kitchen scraps and yard waste into nutrient rich soil. |
| | Do your own landscaping. Paying to have yard and garden work done is expensive. Enlist family members for help with difficult or heavy tasks. |
| | Buy garden tools, flower pots and other items second hand. Great bargains are often found at yard sales and thrift stores. |
| | Watch for sales at your local nursery or garden supply store. Use coupons, whenever possible. |
