    25 Stocking Stuffers for Homesteaders

    Homesteaders, by nature, are minimalists. They are people who have chosen to live off the land instead of living in the land of excess – and so, you must be very careful when choosing which gifts to give them on Christmas. The trick to giving a gift to a homesteader is this: give them a gift that will enhance their homesteading lifestyle.

    Fancy cars and expensive jewelry aren’t what they’re after (thank goodness for you). Rather, homesteaders love a gift that drives them deeper into their hobbies, improves upon a homesteading skill, or minimalizes their lifestyle even more.

    We’ve scoured the market and found some great stocking stuffers that homesteaders actually want! Feast your eyes on this merry list…
