Save Money And The Environment

[falanlar 0]

We all hear about the need to save money in those days. There is no question that any more with personal financial concerns than most of us were a year ago. There are many ways to save money, but some are less obvious than others.

It is a difficult balancing act to try and save money to improve personal finances, while providing balanced meals and entertaining activities to a family. One of the ways to do this is to garden.With children increasingly over-scheduled, found the time to have a garden, can not be the simplest advice, but unfortunately one of the “solutions” people and communities are on a budget is by cutting sports and other after-school programs. As such, there is a concomitant increase in free time.

Getting children involved in the gardening has many benefits for the whole family. While most families are not over the land to produce enough food to grow them get through the whole year, for the price of a few packets of seeds are still many opportunities for the growing of fresh produce that is healthy and on the road save to help after the cut.

Home garden can of window boxes to patches range in the backyard, and can produce enough for a couple of salads or a summer’s worth of corn, squash and potatoes. And of course, the cultivation of potatoes is always a good move with children, because they do French fries! There are several types of fruit and vegetable produce throughout the year, and others that grow seasonally. Growing a garden can be not only a great family activity, but it can also be a learning and teaching experience for both parent and child.

It is equally an unfortunate fact of the times that more of us are being laid off from our jobs. Gardening will not only help us go green, stick with our budgets and keep to a more balanced diet, but it has other added benefits as well.

Again, regardless of the size, it provides activity, either the more strenuous kind with a backyard garden, or the lower-impact provided by planters and window-boxes. Many medical studies have proved that activity of any kind can improve one’s physical and mental health saving money on medical bills, which is never a bad thing. Especially if one has been laid off and is having a difficult time finding employment, the satisfaction of growing one tomato or fifty ears of corn can be of immense value. Personal satisfaction goes a long way, not to mention that it is something unique and interesting to put on a resume.

Agree with you. However, not easy to carry out. Even when one is out of job, the tendency is to find another job or go for some kind of training that can land one on a job in future.

Here is Singapore, land scared lah, if one got "garden" meaning quite rich liao- "lay off" cannot apply . Even get laid off, still got many activities to carry on le, not necessary to become a "part-time farmer" to get green. Rich bowl is more important than to get green. Need $ to replendish soil, as well as to buy fertiliser. And the fact in Singapore is that the cost of growing vege for salad is more costly than to have the same in restarurant!
