Garden savings calculator
Estimate what your garden's harvest would cost at the store, and compare it with what you spend. The starting yields are rough averages for a decent season; real harvests vary a lot with weather, soil and care, so adjust them. Use your local store prices. Nothing is stored.

Keep a kitchen scale by the door and weigh what you pick. By the end of the season you'll know exactly which crops are worth your space. The free Garden Savings Planner has a harvest tally page.
