## Why use this tool

## Questions

### Should gifted produce be counted as shopping avoided?

Not unless it actually replaces your household purchase. Keep that value separate from household savings.

### What should I check before using Kitchen Garden Savings Calculator?

Check Inputs, water and other costs, Produce, Usable harvest and Replaces purchased share. Use the exact units shown beside the controls and replace any example values with your own inputs.
