Knowing what to buy the gardener in your life can be hard…especially if you don’t have any gardening experience yourself. Sure, gardeners need gloves and shovels but some of the best gifts for gardeners aren’t always so clear.
Maintaining a garden is good for the soul but it can be hard on the body. Luckily there are some tools our there that can make life a little easier.
These are some of the tools that I personally use and own that have made gardening a bit easier for me through the years. We hope the gardener in your life loves them too.
One of the best gift for gardeners is this weeding hoe. If there ever a tool that a gardener needed, it’s this one!
Simply push and pull the tool through weeds and lift them with ease.
It has cut my weeding time by more than half and has saved my back from aching at the end of the day.
The gardener in your life will appreciate how easy pulling weeds from vegetable and garden beds will be from here on out.
It also comes in a cute handheld version as well!
Another of the best gifts for gardeners is this soil blocker. It really is a game changer when starting seeds.
Not only has it has saved us so much money because we no longer have to buy plastic seed trays or add to landfills when they inevitably crumble and have to be thrown out, but it is so much healthier for the plants to use blockers.
This particular model is made in England and super sturdy and reliable.
I love this gardening set and I love this company. This gardening set is the only gardening set a gardener will ever need. It’s pricier than our other suggestions but it comes with a lifetime guarantee. I’ve owned mine for the past 10 years and I have yet to have a problem. Truly is one of the best gifts for a gardener.
I have never had to replace the shears and all the tools remain as sharp as the day they were purchased.
4. Raised Bed Garden Bed Kit
This raised bed makes a great gift for anyone looking to start a garden or anyone looking to add to an established garden.
They are easy to put together and work really well with the square-foot gardening method to grow vegetables or herbs this gardening season.
Even better, pair it with our square-foot gardening guide for one of the best gifts for a gardener!
If you have a small gardening space, you will want to use the square foot gardening method.
This seeding tray makes it easy to plan out your garden and comes with a quick reference tool for all veggie spacing.
The tree has color coordinated spots for different veggies based on the square foot gardening method. It makes it easy for gardeners to plan out their beds.
6. Gorilla Grip Extra Thick Kneeling Pad
Our next suggestion for one of the best gifts for gardeners is this extra-thick kneeling pad. This pad has saved my knees on more than one occasion and I’m certain the gardener in your life will appreciate the extra knee support as well.
7. Hemp Cream Maximum Strength
My favorite cream to sooth deep aches and pains after a long day gardening. Often times we overlook simple creams or salves for the gardeners in our life to help soothe away a hard day’s work.
This cream would make a great gift idea to include in a gardening basket.
8. Leather Garden Tool Belt for Women & Men
I love this gardening belt! Not only because it looks great but because it holds everything I need when walking the garden.
Did I mention it looks great?
In all seriousness, this is a high-quality leather belt that will hold the tools your gardener needs to get the job done!
9. HANDLANDY Rose Pruning Gloves for Men & Women
We love these gloves. Not only are they thick enough to protect the gardener in your life’s hands from sharp sticks, brambles, and rose thorns, but they are extra long to protect their arms too.
They are one of the best garden gloves we have used and are sure the gardening enthusiast in your life will love them too!
10. Mobile Garden Potting Bench
A potting bench like this one is a great addition to any gardener’s arsenal. It will save their back from bending over during seed starting season as well as when repotting plants during the growing season.
