My partner asked how much the new garden would really cost, and I had no solid answer. I’d been buying things piece by piece and never added it up. When we finally did, the number was a surprise.
I put together a rough figure using the garden cost estimator on Gardenvoila, including soil, plants, tools, and irrigation. It came out higher than I’d hoped, but at least we agreed on a budget. We’re phasing the project over two seasons.
How do you handle big garden projects financially? Do you do it all at once or spread it out? I’m also curious which items people skimp on and later regret, since I’m tempted to buy cheap tools.
