It's amazing the amount of money that can be spent on keeping up a yard and garden. Last year I remember investing large amounts just to keep the yard in city code shape and clean. It means that if you want to have a yard that keeps standard viewing, then you are going to spend money on it.
My vegetable garden cost quite a bit of cash as well. This leaves me to think about down sizing the coming year. I did the type of garden one is accustomed to having in the years prior to now. Back then you had a huge garden with all types of vegetables to support the coming harvests. Today, it's not feasible to have such a garden considering the things that just won't grow right in certain soils and the weather. Certain soils take a large amount of mulch to get it in shape for planting seasons. I'm one person who is not young anymore. I have to pay people to come and do the heavy work for me. Here in you have more expense.
This coming year I am considering having raised beds that can be easier controlled. The harvest will be less but I'm sure the area involved will produce better.
