    I wonder what dating is like when you have so much money that you already have a garden. When I met my partner we both lived in shared houses.

      You can grow a really nice garden on a balcony or in windows. Tomatoes, cucumber and chili’s are great to start with and then just experiment

      People who are actually rich don’t have food gardens, they have flower gardens at best. A roommate of mine had a (very bad) garden when I lived with him, and my now-wife had a small herb garden in an apartment. You can definitely have food gardens in shared houses

        I briefly stayed at a multi-millionaire’s place. They did have a herb garden. Nice planters and automated watering systems. All provided and maintained by the groundskeeping company, of course. I sincerely doubt they ever planted anything, they just grabbed herbs when they needed them and instructed people what herbs they wanted.

        I imagine richer people might similarly have food gardens maintained by waitstaff. Maybe not around their primary residence, but what if the desire to cosplay as or claim to be a farmer or plantation owner strikes them?

      Unless you’re from very rural area - then you should kinda have the garden by default.
