Thank you to my secret Santa from work who gave me this lovely gift!
The present had to be under $10 in value and they did a great job fitting a lot into this box, including:
- 3 packets of seeds
- Zucchini
- Beetroots
- Beans
- Rosemary
- Chives
- Mint
- A cake of Seasol soap, and
- A bunch of roses.
A lovely gift and with all the home grown produce it is also a great money saver (for the giver and receiver), although I think my secret Santa was particularly generous as this must be a lot more than $10 worth!
I hope that I can come up with some equally creative, innovative and home grown or home-made gifts in the future.

What a fabulous Secret Santa idea! I am going to borrow that – or some part of it – if I’m in a Secret Santa next year. Growing things (and things that grow) are always good presents with my kids too. My sister bought them a fruit tree each (she asked me what they’d like, that I’d also like them to have!), for Christmas, and they love them! A pot with seeds has made popular presents for some of my nine-year-old’s friend’s in the past too.

Great ideas Kirsten, I think I am going to have to get more creative with my gift giving.
