Sharing know-how about UK gardening
3. Subscriptions and other online gift ideas
These are the ultimate when it comes to saving on postage and wrapping paper. Just organise a subscription and everything is sent to the person's home on your behalf. Simple.
- Magazines - for general gardening and specialist topics, weekly, monthly, bimonthly or quarterly. Look at the titles on Great Magazines' website.
- Membership - of societies and associations, often with benefits of newsletters or magazines, advice, discounts on show and garden entry fees. For ideas look at our page of associations
- Charity gifts - great when buying for those that have everything. Spend your money on essentials (tool kits, livestock, plants etc) that go to someone in need and your friend or relative gets a card to show what's been bought. Present Aid is run by Christian Aid; Unwrapped is run by Oxfam
