This is an honest and inspiring interview by Madeline Mckeever of Brown Envelope Seeds in Cork and a great example of how you can turn your life around by opening up your mind http://silvercircle.ie/voices/620-saving-the-seeds.html.
We started our veggie garden on a shoestring - there were weeks when even a bag of compost was too expensive, and weed membrane and wind break fabric were a distant dream. We've always tried to re-use/recycle as much as we can - our beds are edged with old roof joists from the house renovation. You don't need a big budget to grow veggies, just be prepared to let people know you'll take their rubbish!
That was an inspiring interview, thank you for sharing the link. It sounds like they will need to hire a couple more people soon.:)
