U.S. inflation hit a new four-decade peak this summer, and the sudden shift in the economy resulted in a rapid rise of grocery prices.
One solution to improve the situation is home gardening, such as using the galvanized tanks (2x2x6), as my family did. Growing my own vegetables has saved us about $130 each week.
There are huge benefits for having a vegetable garden in your backyard:
- Cost savings on grocery bill around 25 to 30 percent.
- Health benefits: 100 percent organic vegetables with no chemicals and pesticides.
- Increase vitamin D intake which can help fight disease, build strength, promote sleep and maintain healthy lifestyle.
- Educational purpose: teaching children/teens where food actually came from.
- Reduce carbon footprint: minimize trips to the grocery market.
- Prompt family bonding time by working in the garden.
