FATHER'S DAY

Gift Ideas for Father's Day

Father's Day is around the corner on June 20, and since Dad is more lunch than brunch and more backyard than corsage, Chalet is featuring several plants and home and garden items that will help him chill out on his special day, and, for that matter, all year long:

• The outdoor version of the favorite TV room recliner may just be the Adirondack chair. Made from 100% recycled materials.  Just like dear old Dad, these chairs are both handsome and durable.
  
  
• What's green all over, a kid-friendly project and a gift sure to become a conversation piece? Living walls, often used commercially for green roofs, are now available in home-sized kits exclusively at Chalet and are perfect for a display at home or in his office. Pick up a "canvas", plants and instructions for a project that's as quick and easy to assemble as it is a thoughtful gesture of love for Dad - and all things green.
  
• His lawn will be the envy of the neighborhood if you hand Dad or Grandpa some Big Daddy Hostas from Chalet. As their name implies, bigger is better with this variety of the hearty hosta plant.
  

• For snoozing, reading or just plain lying around, nothing beats a hammock - and Chalet has the best quality available.

• Add more thrill to the grill with eye-catching, top quality barbecue tools including the 4-in-1 spatula (cutting edge, tenderizer, grill cleaner and bottle opener all in one!) and accessories ranging from patio lights to hamburger-and hot dog-themed serving pieces.
  

• Keep the fire going well into the night with a fire pit, perfect for rousing get togethers as well as family s'more making night or even a quiet, solitary respite. Our 100% copper pits are as sturdy and handsome as they come.

• Dads love tools - and that includes garden tools. Check out Chalet's line of DeWit tools featuring modern designs with old-fashioned craftsmanship that tackle special problem areas, ranging from rockery trowels to patio knives to disc weeders and seeding rakes.
