Similarly gardening provides the hobbyist with an enjoyable pastime and opportunity for relaxation while at the same time reaping the rewards of his or her labor.
People take up to hobbies for interest, enjoyment and relaxation, rather than for financial rewards. Over a period of time you might be able to develop outstanding skills and start making money but ultimately the main aim of having a hobby is for personal fulfillment.
