                                          An estimate for this area is 41 m .
                             (This is just an example. Your garden is different of course.)


               If your grid is 1 foot by 1 foot, then the area will be in square feet.



               Why should I want to know the area of my garden?


               There might be lots of reasons:

                     You want to re-turf the garden. How much grass should you order? How much
                       will it cost?
                     You want to plant the garden with tomato plants. These have to be planted a
                       certain distance apart. How many plants could you plant? What will be your
                       expected yield of tomatoes?
                     You want to hold a barbeque party. How many people could comfortably fit
                       into your garden?
