@kaa Having that kind of space would be a dream! Don't know your situation/experience, but a lot can be grown in pots. Start with herbs & greens, then radishes, beets, bok choy, tomatoes, zucchini, etc. A few plants doesn't seem like much, but the savings do add up, especially with the greens.

@kaa Another thing to consider is the extra food that would normally be trimmed off at the store. Things like the tops of beets/carrots/radishes can all be eaten, same with zucchini leaves and blossoms, along with many, many others. So you grow more food than you think and are reducing waste.
