The holiday season isn’t really about things, but things can help a homestead run more efficiently and enjoyably. Tools, knowledge and resources make a real difference.
Homesteading is also a way to make the most of the resources you have. So, we want to hear your ideas for smart, practical gifts that could be useful throughout the year.
We hope to have a list ready by the end of the week so you can use it if you’re taking advantage of sales on one of the country’s biggest shopping weekends. Homemade ideas are welcome, too.
What gift would make your homesteading life easier, more efficient or more enjoyable? What gifts have you received in the past that helped you? What great things are you going to give this season?
Maybe it’s a book that changed how you run your farm, a tool or gadget that made chores easier, a handmade item that kept you warm or an offer of someone’s time and skills. If it made your life better, we want to hear about it.
Your answers may be used in a future story.
