Don't forget to compost if you can. We built a space for our compost pile out of cinder blocks our landlord left behind from another project. Does the job and didn't cost us anything. Great tips.

Granted the containers, earth boxes, some things cost $ to begin w/but that was one time fee. I have my Nature Mill composter (again one time expense) and I have compost going now in the laundry room so no expense on soil any more. But not even the money issue but the simple benefits of knowing exactly where my food came from and the convenience is worth it! Great info and I’m doing a container garden on my 3rd floor apartment!
