I think most people that own homes don't have gardens, although I think it would be a good idea if most people did if they had time to do it (I didn't this year except for a single indoor basil plant, but I did have a small one in previous years, and plan to try again next year). There's some good personal health and environmental benefits to having a home garden[1]. It doesn't have to take a ton of brain cycles either. Buy a raised garden bed, fill it with soil, pick out some seeds, water them regularly, periodically check them for disease, etc. Doesn't take much more effort than five minutes a day, usually, beyond the first couple of weeks. If you screw something up one year, try something a bit different next year. But it doesn't seem to be the norm to have a garden. I only know one couple that have a home garden of the people I know.
