One Christmas you're hoping for UGGS, earrings and gift cards to fancy restaurants and then the next thing you know, you've started a garden and your wishlist look more like this: seed-spacing stick, compost sifter, titan tomato cages, bamboo trellis system, and garden hat. What happened, you say? Well, my friends. You've been bitten by the garden bug and there's no turning back. This is your new life.
Welcome.
We know because we've been there! We've also tried many different tools, plants, seeds, gimmicks, and gadgets in our own gardens- so we know what works and what's worth it!
We've created 3 gift lists-stocking stuffers, great garden gifts, and kitchen gifts. Bookmark this post and send it to whomever is in charge of buying you gifts this year!

Dibber- If you thrive off of precision and you wonder if you're planting your seeds deep enough, this is the type-A tool for you.
