If you’re like us, nothing brings you more joy than being out in your garden. Whether you’re cooking up a storm, being a social butterfly or making your own mulch – your garden is your own paradise. It’s little surprise then that 27 million (almost 50%!) of us Brits have green-fingers. So, it makes sense that our go-to gift involves gardening. Even less surprising is the gardening retail market being worth an estimated 5 billion – they’re raking in the sales. So in this blog, we’ll run through our ideas for gardening gifts for men, women and the whole family!
Gardening Gift Ideas
As previously mentioned, being a 5 billion pound industry means there’s an abundance of options for gardening gifts for men. Obviously, it’s dependant on the individual, but let’s run through some ideas for all budgets!
Gardening Gifts for Men £0-£50 budget
£0- 50 If you’re on the hunt for a gift to give your green-fingered grandad that’s also budget-friendly – you’re in the right place! Firstly, what does he do in the garden? Why? Because for under 50 you can get a gift as individual as him. Is he the life of a party with a garden bar to match? Or, is his garden a gateway to peace and tranquillity – well-personalised gifts are a great idea. Places like Etsy and Not On The High street are great for a tailored touch. Personalised birthday BBQ – they’ve got that. Personalised toolset – they’ve got that. They even have personalised gnomes and who doesn’t love gnomes.
