Eight gardening and garden-themed gifts for the holidays

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 2 Nov, 15:06 · Archive

A guide to gardening gifts including raised beds, tools and smart technology.

Gardeners can choose from eight gift options spanning tools, technology and accessories this holiday season. The Vita Urbana keyhole composting garden, priced at $239.99, combines a vegetable garden and composter in a single four-by-four-foot raised bed. The lightweight PVC structure assembles without tools or screws and allows kitchen scraps to decompose naturally at its center to nourish surrounding plants whilst retaining soil moisture. Vita supports sustainable gardening programmes in Africa and around the world.

For those seeking hand tools, the Sneeboer Great Dixter Planting Spade offers a hybrid design between a long-handled shovel and trowel. The Dutch-made tool features a hand-forged, stainless-steel blade with an angled curve to scoop soil efficiently, paired with replaceable ash hardwood handles at 16½ inches long. Priced at $109, the heirloom-quality spade suits work on knees in established gardens.

The gift guide also recommends more unconventional options. The Birdfy Bath Pro is a solar-powered smart birdbath and fountain, whilst Crop Tomato Organic Vodka offers an award-winning USDA-certified organic spirit distilled from non-GMO Minnesota corn and infused with vine-ripened tomato essence.
