I invested 13 dollars in nothing but garden supplies, and plants, into my garden last year. Minus, the water, and rabbit litter I dumped into the soil. Including that I lost money last year because of an immature set of blueberry bushes, and crappy new plot of soil. This year I have sunflower seeds from the rabbit food that Fawn doesn't eat, green bean seeds from the food pantry, cherry tomato seeds as my valentines gift, turnip seeds from the junk draw labeled 2008 all that I didn't have to pay for. I paid for two seed starting greenhouses 5 bucks total, the topsy turvy strawberry planter 3 bucks, the seed starter mix 2 bucks, the garden soil 6 bucks, and finally the strawberries 4 bucks. Let's see if I make back the twenty dollars I invested in food I don't have to buy this year.
