Finding gifts for the gardener can seem overwhelming, especially if you're not a gardener yourself. While tools like shears, pruners, trowels, and gloves can be tough to choose for someone (lots of gardeners go through several versions of a tool to find just the perfect one!) gifts to spruce up the garden, try a new growing or preserving technique, or increase pollinator acticity are always a good idea!

When you only have .10 of an acre, sometimes your seed list is bigger than the space you actually have for seeds. These have all earned a spot in my raised beds through years of trial and error, for their tastiness, ease of growth, and large harvests in proportion to the amount of space they take up.

Cuts, scratches, rashes, sunburn--all common injuries for the gardener. These are some of my favorite ways to treat--or prevent--those pesky minor injuries.

These are the supplies I turn to year after year in my garden. One of the best ways to make a garden even more sustainable is to choose supplies that will last through several seasons' worth of weather, wear, and tear without needing to be replaced.

These books have helped me along in my gardening journey. Simple techniques for any space or budget and lots of ideas for how to use your harvest.
