Does gardening pay off? Part 2

A month ago I did a blog post detailing an inquiry I have about whether gardening pays off in the wallet.

I did a little better price checking earlier this week during my lunch break.  I made a trip to the MOMs Organic Market closest to work and recorded current prices for produce similar to what I'm growing.  Bear in mind that this is getting to the end of the prime growing season for much of what I have in the plot.  It's notable that they only carry organic produce, though. 

Here's what I found:

• Garlic - $7.99/lb
• Shallots - $5.99/lb
• Watermelon (similar in size to what I grew) - $7.99/ea
• Green Beans - $3.99/lb
• Roma Tomatoes - $3.99/lb
• Bell Peppers - $2.99/lb
• Note: For comparison's sake, a pepper that was approx 3" x 4" long weighed in at 1/2 lb.
• Radishes - $6.99/lb
• Daikon Radish - $1.99/lb
• Scallions - $1.79/ one-half lb

Some of the prices are close to what I found in my research last month.  Some are a bit off which is partially attributable to change in growing season and the fact that much of what I found in my online searches weren't organic produce.

Once I'm done with this year's growing season, I'll do a final post including a screenshot of my spreadsheet.  When I do that post, I'll also show the prices I ended up using in my calculations.
