Each pack of seeds is $1.50- $2.50 at our local stores and my seed wish list for a Fall garden equals about $40 from Johnny's Select Seeds Catalog, so if you don't need soil amendments or mulch, that would be the only cost. The composted cow manure I purchased from Lowes was $1.49 for a 40 pound bag.
It takes a lot of time and work, though, and there is no guarantee that the seeds will sprout and that the plants will be healthy.
If you buy seedlings, it's pricier.
