BOSTON, Dec. 1, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Food Gardening Network, publisher of Food Gardening Magazine, has released their December 2021 issue, featuring their first annual gardening gift guide with more than 40 gift ideas. Plus, they share five ways you can keep your garden going in December, no matter where you live.
Discover 13 practical and exciting Gifts for Garden Lovers You Can Buy and watch the video to get a preview of all of them in action. Senior Editor Amanda MacArthur shares what she loves about all of them, saying, "Being a gardener, I can think of lots of ideas that would be great gifts for garden lovers because I have gotten so many myself."
You don't always have to buy gifts, though. In Crafty Gifts You Can Make From Your Garden, MacArthur shares instructions and detailed videos for making nine different gifts, from homemade bug spray and seed packets, to smudge sticks, vegetable dyes, and a gorgeous Edible Herb and Leaf Garland.
In Edible Gift Ideas From Your Garden, you'll discover so many tasty edible gift ideas you can make from your garden: hot sauces, jellies, herb blends, salad dressings, teas, you name it! You can infuse vodkas by simply adding herbs and vanilla and letting them marinate for a few days. You can create a fancy salt mix by combining dried rosemary with flaked sea salt, or you could infuse olive oil! Here are just a few of the ideas you'll find in this issue:
● Canned strawberry jam
● Blackberry jalapeno jelly
● Italian seasoning
● Herbs de Provence
● Homemade marshmallows with chamomile
For gardeners who aren't ready to give up on growing, How To Keep Gardening In December offers five gardening activities you can do right now in the comfort of your home, no matter how cold or warm it is outdoors. These include starting a hydroponic garden and growing microgreens.
The December issue of Food Gardening Magazine also includes in-depth articles about winter squash, potatoes, and thyme. You'll get a taste of five of the sweetest winter squash, including some varieties you may not have heard of. And you can find out which 10 plants make perfect garden companions for potatoes and sweet potatoes. Plus, discover some plants that you should never plant near your potatoes.
For thyme lovers, this issue offers several ways to keep your thyme plants growing and healthy year after year. There's also a recipe for Cheddar-Thyme Biscuits that turns traditional breakfast biscuits into savory treats that are just salty, sour, and minty enough to work with dinner, or at lunch with a bowl of soup.
The December issue of Food Gardening Magazine offers readers four feature articles, four accompanying videos (including a fun tutorial for making fun craft projects from your garden), and three Collection Close-Ups spotlighting Winter squash, potatoes, and thyme. These collections offer comprehensive, in-depth information about a single fruit, herb, or vegetable, from starting seeds to dealing with pests and diseases and from nutrition facts to delicious recipes.
