Americans with any amount of money would rather buy it plastic sealed and then whine about the costs.
I don't bother w/ a garden per se. A few tomato and pepper plants, but mostly herbs around the yard. Love thos fresh picked herbs when I am cooking up supper.

Reason: My time. It is more valuable in terms of earning money than it is pretending to be a farmer. By the time harvest time comes around, all of the organic farmers in the area are flush with a cornicopia of fruits and vegetables. I buy from them and use my time that would be spent farming on other areas of interest and work. Works for me and supports my local organic farmer.
