Day 25 - A Dollar Earned...

My garden has earned its first dollar! Yes, it's cost me $31 to set up, but shouldn't cost anything to maintain - assuming I manage to keep everything alive (not guaranteed). The cash crop is definitely basil. Costing $7.28 to set up, the basil has earned 53 cents in one week. With basil costing about $43/kg in the local supermarkets, it's really worth it. Add to that the fact that it pretty much grows itself and you'd be mad not to add it to your kitchen garden.
