Most homesteading moms have wish lists that are a little bit different from moms who don’t dream about chickens and tomatoes. I put together a list of homestead mom gift ideas that are are at the top of my wish list. I am sure that the homesteading female in your life (mom or not) has at least one of these on her list as well!
This may or may not be a hint for my husband…. (Husband, this is most definitely a hint.)

2. Cast Iron
Give a gift that will last a lifetime…cast iron cookware! Mama can cook just about anything in these pans & she can pass them on to her kids and grandkids.
3. Canning Supplies
Preserving food by canning is a huge part of homesteading. Give mom a new hot water bath canner, pressure canner, or jars & other supplies to help stock her pantry this year!
4. Plants
Many homesteading women love plants of all varieties… house plants, vegetable transplants, herbs, flowers for the porch, fresh cut flowers, and you can never go wrong with succulents!
5. Essential Oils
We use these in ev-er-y-thing! Essential oils are used for cleaning supplies, air fresheners, laundry, natural remedies, and in the barn! If you don’t know which oils to give mom, I suggest Lavender, Peppermint, and Tea Tree to start. 🙂

9. Something Handmade or Handpicked
Mothers love heartfelt gifts! Husbands can write a letter to her or make her something special if he is into woodworking. Kids can pick mom some flowers, draw a picture, write a letter, or make a craft.
10. A Massage
Maybe this is a little cliche for Mother’s Day, but we don’t care! Homesteading mothers are on their feet all day raising plants, animals, and kids… they NEED a good massage every now & again.
11. A Homestead Journal
Give her a journal filled with blank pages for her to jot down her thoughts & farm data in or The Homestead Mama Planning Pack that has categories & checklists pre-made for her 🙂

Ok… I live as far from a homestead as is possible! BUT according to the list:
what gifts would a homesteading mama like to get….I would like everyone! … including the chickens ( if I could).
I have a postage stamp size garden that I’m amazed at what God gives us out of it. I love fermenting vegetables, baking real food from scratch. I’m living small in a big way. I’m like a sponge soaking up all the info I can. Thanks I used to blog… it was called, Journey Down the Garden Path. I had to take a break because of health but I would love to go back to writing. I think I’m going to enjoy your posts
