Smart Garden Gifts

Listen to this podcast to learn more about each of these five items (or the article for even more ideas).

 

1. Self-Watering Containers 

These are smarter because they help you keep your plants well hydrated where you only need to water them once every 2-4 weeks, in most cases. They have an easy to fill hole at the top of the container, a drain at the bottom, are sealed so they don’t make a mess, and keep plant roots hydrated with bottom-up water soil capillary movement.

 

 

 

2. Dramm Watering Wand

These wands are smart because of all the different options on the wand nozzle, it’s sturdy, aluminum construction, and the durable nozzle end. Plus, they come in many brite fun colors. You get to personalize this gift with a great color; orange, red, yellow, purple, blue, or green.! Check them out!

 

 

 

 

3. Tumbling Composter

This compost tumbler is smart because you can lower your food and kitchen waist to turn into usable nutrient-rich compost to add back to your own garden. Pretty sweet! Reduce your waste and make your garden healthier! Plus this compost tumbler is on its own stand, and fits in smaller areas.

5. True Leaf Market Gift Certificates

All seeds are from non-GMO sources, and the gift certificate lets your giftee choose exactly what they want.
