10 Gifts for the Gardener - $25 and less - grace grits and gardening

Hey, hey! It’s Christmastime again…

Today I’m spotlighting 10 Gifts for the Gardeners in your life. And guess what? These 10 gifts won’t break our gardening budgets. Do we have gardening budgets? 🤔

December is here in all her lovely holiday glory. My goal is to keep Christmas simple. Any gift-giving I do will be small and likely purchased online. The past few years in our family, we’ve been celebrating the magic of stocking stuffers. It’s true—incredibly good things come in the smallest packages.

Almost everything on this list will fit in a stocking.

Most are offered by small, local businesses.

Nothing cost more than $25.
