The most essential gifts for a perfect summer in Owsley County

12edited

There’s nothing worse than trying to find a gift for someone and not knowing what to get them.

To take the guesswork out of gift buying, we’ve found practical and helpful gifts for any occasion, sorted by theme to help find everything you are looking for.

Top 5 “Summer Essentials” Gifts

1) Mason Bee Barrel
Hang a Mason bee barrel in a sunny garden spot to give solitary bees a home of their own. These industrious bees will help pollinate flowers, fruit, and vegetables. The nesting canes in the habitat are designed to attract young, non-swarming bees who will move in during the summer and emerge as adults in spring.

2) Hummingbird Swing
A hummingbird swing gives the tiny birds a perfectly-sized place to perch. Hang it close to a feeder or nectar-rich flowering plant—and in a good viewing spot—to enjoy watching these beautiful birds in action.

3) Cat Gourd Birdhouse

4) Ladybug & Insect Lodge
Attract garden friends with a home of their own. The ladybug and insect lodge is made with FSC-certified timber and features bamboo tubes in its lower chamber, perfect for ladybugs, lacewings, and other invertebrates to get cozy in. Its hinged roof lets you add things like cuttings, twigs and more to enhance the sheltered environment.

5) Flower Design Bird Feeder
