I'm looking to spruce up my garden bed without spending a fortune. Does anyone know where I can find inexpensive landscaping rocks or bricks? I'm also interested in being eco-friendly, so I'd prefer to reuse materials that others no longer need instead of buying new.

In some areas, people often give away decorative rocks for free online, although they can be a bit dirty. For something low-cost, your local city might have free mulch available several times a year, but keep in mind that could require a bit of maintenance to keep looking nice.
Check out Facebook Marketplace! I've seen a lot of folks selling or even giving away landscaping materials there. It’s a great way to find what you need without breaking the bank.
You might want to try posting in local groups like Buy Nothing or Freecycle. You never know – someone might have some bricks or stones they want to get rid of! And if you’re feeling adventurous, driving out to the countryside could yield some free rocks too!
Thanks for the tip! I’ll look into that and see what’s available locally.
