What are the pros and cons of a small garden?

Pros

1. Equipment – When your garden is more miniature, you don’t need massive or expensive tools. Typical hand tools should work perfectly fine for most small gardens.
2. Fill space – If you have small, unused space around your yard, a small garden would be great for filling spaces like this. A small garden can spruce up small nooks and crannies.

Cons

1. Work – A small garden requires less work than a more extensive garden, but that does not mean no work. Small gardens still require maintenance and care to reach their full potential.
2. Noticeable crop loss – Because the garden is minor, diminished growth becomes more apparent. Covering up or hiding may be much more challenging when crop loss occurs.

There are many ways to organize your garden and use every inch at your disposal smartly. Getting services like The Local Tree Experts will surely be worth it once you see the result of the project.

Small gardens do not cost as much as more extensive gardens. They take fewer resources and require less preparation. Greens under 500 square feet average only $483. This can vary depending on your space and the steps to get your garden ready.
