With the holiday season upon us, it’s time to talk about gifts for gardeners. A subscription to Permaculture Magazine might suit an alternative kitchen gardener or someone interested in sustainable living – have a look at the online version to see a free online copy or find out how to get a free sample issue.

The Ethical Superstore have lots of green garden gift ideas, as do the Natural Collection. And Gluttonous Gardener do some very classy crates crammed with plants and edible goodies.

But good gifts for gardeners don’t always involve spending money, and so I talk about free and homemade presents you could give this Christmas. I’m sure you have lots more suggestions – so get in touch!
