It is very therapeutic to garden, though. (lemmy.today)

I have some land prepared for a garden. It was pretty well laid out by the previous owner of the property. I'll have some costs in getting it going, since the last guy used it mainly for flowers, so I want to put in some raised beds and something to keep the animals away from my food, beyond that, it's all planting and waiting. It rains sufficiently here so no need for irrigation, and there's plenty of sun. The soil is pretty decent too.

Direct financial costs will be minimal, year over year, and then it's just the indirect cost of my time to tend to it as it grows.
