Grow a garden and cash in
You may have seen the story today on Good morning America about how people are growing mini farms in their own back yards and making money off of them. I love the idea and would do it myself but I live in the middle of farm land so there is not a huge demand for produce here. In a city though I could see it working even with a small garden
This would be a great home based business for someone who wants to stay home with the kids or just can’t work because of a disability. It’s also great as a part time job for someone who just wants some extra cash. Some of these people brought in $200 or more a month, that would pay my car insurance and a week of gas. Not too bad. It’s also an easy start up all you need is a yard and some seeds and a few restaurants or neighbors to sell to. Keep your prices lower then the distributors the restaurants normally buy from and your in business.
The best part is if your a stay at home mom or dad you can get the kids involved and get them out and doing something that helps the family and gives them the much needed exercise kids need. Oh and don’t forget about the bonding time with them.

You know, that’s not a bad idea at all! It’s also a cost effective way to supply some groceries for yourself:)
