12 Gifts For MIgardener Obsessed Gardeners in 2019

Written by - Kaitlynn from MIgardener 

We all have at least one friend who gardens wherever/whenever possible, even in the dead of winter. The one who can’t seem to stop themselves from adopting yet another plant baby. The person who you can call in any plantmergency. The one who’s supposedly watched every MIgardener video in existence, from the beginning of time. The truly garden obsessed. 

For someone who knows their stuff when it comes to gardening, it can be tricky to choose something you know they’ll use and appreciate. This gift guide goes out to you — the MIgardener Superfan Club. Here at MIgardener, we carry products we love and know to be high quality and long-lasting. A recommendation from us is essentially a guarantee. So here’s a quick list of our favorite gardening products, the ones we like so much that we sell in our very own store, in one place for you to discover the perfect gift for your garden obsessed loved one this holiday season. 

1. Hori Hori

This multi-purpose tool is a family heirloom in the making. The perfect gift for any gardener. Use the heat-tempered stainless steel, hollowed back blade for sawing, digging, and slicing. Below the comfortable walnut wood handle is a twine cutter to keep you from rummaging through your garden shed. Made to last for generations, the Hori Hori is a must-have in the garden.

2. The Autopilot Garden

Whether you've watched every MIgardener video or not, this gift would be perfect for anyone of any skill level! Train your garden to practically grow itself with this gardening guide from Luke and Sindy Marion, founders of MIgardener. Instead of slaving away year after year, work smarter (not harder) by strategizing to help your garden become self-sufficient. Learn to break down traditional thinking and implement systems that will save time, hassle, weeding, water, and space wherever you live. Create an organic garden that allows you to enjoy the rest of the season on autopilot. The best gift to get a gardener who needs to find a healthy life/garden balance.

3. New Gloves

It may seem simple, but no gardener will ever be upset by a new pair of gloves! Because of the quality and amazing price point, my recommendation would be these amazing bamboo gardening gloves. I would be delighted to get these in my stocking this year!  They are a perfect size and elasticity for getting into tight spaces in the garden.

4. Clyde’s Garden Planner 

The ultimate complete garden planning & planting guide.
