A well-thought-out plan helps you prioritize what matters most, whether it’s cutting water bills with smart irrigation or supporting local ecosystems with native flora. By estimating expenses upfront, you avoid surprises and can focus on building a space that’s kind to both the planet and your wallet.

FAQs
How accurate is the cost estimate for my sustainable garden?
Our tool uses industry averages for materials, plants, and systems based on garden size and sustainability focus. While it’s a solid starting point, actual costs can vary depending on your location, local suppliers, or specific design choices. Think of it as a detailed guide—add a little buffer for unexpected expenses, and you’ll be set to start planning!
Can I mix different sustainability focuses in one estimate?
Right now, the tool calculates based on a single primary focus to keep the estimate streamlined and accurate. If you’re blending ideas like rainwater collection and native plants, try running separate estimates for each focus to get a rough idea, then tweak as needed. We’re working on adding multi-focus options soon, so stay tuned!
What if I enter the wrong garden size or budget range?
No worries! The tool checks for errors like negative sizes or incomplete selections before running the numbers. If something’s off, you’ll get a friendly error message prompting you to fix it. Just double-check your inputs, and you’ll get your cost breakdown in no time.
