Grow Some Food
Does this seem like an impossibility or too much like the “Good Life”?  Fear not! Anyone who’s anyone is growing their own food these days.
​
You don’t need a garden – you can chuck a few tomato plants in containers on a windowsill or grow herbs in pots on a balcony.  Growing your own is a great way to get some delicious food for next to nothing.  Herbs and salads are super easy to grow and will save you a fortune. Even better news – gardening has been shown to improve mood and make you fitter!  Check out the Royal Horticultural Society for tips on how to get started.
