Here at UrbanMommies we have a huge passion for gardening. And cooking. And sewing. And decorating. OK we really love life, but gardening is very close to the top of the list. It was hard to choose just 10 items for this guide, but we think we’ve made some fun choices if you’re in the market to get gifts for gardeners!gardener gifts

  1. Organic Vegetable Heirloom seeds are super special because you can save them year over year and they will actually reproduce – unlike genetically modified seeds. I know – icky, right?
  2. The Drunken Botanist is a fabulous book about growing plant in your garden to make cocktails. Sake began with a grain of rice. Scotch emerged from barley, tequila from agave, rum from sugarcane, bourbon from corn. Thirsty yet? This fascinating concoction of biology, chemistry, history, etymology, and mixology–with more than fifty drink recipes and growing tips for gardeners–will make you the most popular guest at any cocktail party.
  3. I discovered Weck Jars only last year and my canning has been truly elevated to the next level. Constructed all of glass, these beautiful velles warrant the work you put into your preserves! The only problem is that you don’t really ever want to give them as gifts. Or maybe that’s just me.
  4. Speaking of canning, this Canning Starter Kit is how I began, and the tools are still perfect today. The pot is also great for lobster and crab….
  5. Remember the birdfeeders of old? Thought so. Probably what made you think gardening was no fun! This Sagaform Modern Bird Feeder will change your mind. Or the gardener you’re gifting it to.. WINK.
  6. The Organization for Bat Conservation endorses this Bat House, which should be a staple for any homeowner. Wait for it. Just one bat is capable of consuming more than 500 night-flying insects in a single hour! And as an added bonus, bats provide nutrient rich fertilizer in the form of bat guano, a prized fertilizer with high levels of phosphorus and nitrogen, two of plant’s favorite nutrients. Told ya.
  7. This Propogator with Hygrometer combines a propagator with an electronic hygrometer/thermometer, so you can maintain and monitor greenhouse-like conditions throughout the seedstarting process. So, like getting a head start on growing season if it snows in your neck of the woods.
  8. Ever since we visited the Four Seasons in Vancouver, I’ve wanted onw of these. The Urban Cultivator Microgreen indoor garden growing system let you grow nutrient-rich microgreens that also make your food look like a zillion bucks.
  9. Adorable Spoon Garden Markers to make your beds look all artsy.
  10. Any pizza lovers on your list? Ha. Like everyone. this Grow Pizza Kit from Uncommon Goods is a winner.
