What exactly is a hobby farmer? The term hobby farmer in no way minimizes the dedication or work associated with their farm. It simply means they operate a small farm either for pleasure, supplemental income or both but not necessarily as a primary source of income. The average age of the American farmer is 58 years old and many of the “later in life” farmers started as hobby farmers.
If there is a hobby farmer in your life, you can rest assured anything on this list will be appreciated.
Let’s start with the basics. Good quality work boots are a must! These Ariat Work Hog pull-on boots are both stylish and durable. A version of this boot is available in steel toe, composite and waterproof.
It goes without saying, if you have boots, you need a boot scrubber. This Jobsite scrubber is affordably priced, built to last, and comes with a full refund guarantee.
Carhartt Jeans are a timeless staple for any farmer’s wardrobe. You simply can’t beat the quality for the price.
Just like Luke Bryan said – rain is a good thing. A dependable, quality rain gauge is a must have. How can you contribute to the breakfast conversation at the corner diner if you don’t how much rain you’ve had.
A portable solar charger is not one of those things you use every day, but when you need it, you need it. If you want to give a gift that shows that you put some thought into it, this is one that will make both the giver and the receiver happy.
Remember what Luke said, rain is a good thing. It’s also a messy thing and nobody enjoys wet boots. The Dry Guy Boot and Garment dryer is such a practical gift it’s almost a necessity.
You can never have too many pairs of work gloves. You need a tractor pair, a truck pair, a barn pair, and pair in the house. You get the picture. Telling a farmer they don’t need another of pair gloves is like telling a girl she doesn’t need another pair of shoes. Well, you just don’t.
