Garden Hours Sunrise Till Supper Funny Gardening Hoodie

About this design

Gardeners don't keep business hours; they keep daylight. Here's the real schedule for the person who vanishes into the yard after breakfast and reappears when someone hollers about dinner.

Drawn as a little wooden sign hanging from a nail, with leafy vines over the top corners. It reads “GARDEN” in deep green, “HOURS” in terracotta, then “MONDAY – SUNDAY, SUNRISE TILL SUPPER” and “(weather permitting)” in orange script. Terracotta pots flank the bottom, one with white daisies and one with a leafy green plant.

Wear the hoodie on early spring mornings when the seedlings need checking and the frost hasn't lifted.

Who it's for

Mother's Day is the obvious occasion, but it also suits a newly retired neighbor with seven-day garden hours or the office plant lady. Bring it to a retirement party where the next career is tomatoes.
