I know it might be somewhat sexist to assume that grilling is a guy thing, but most guys I know are more comfortable behind a grill than at a stove. So here's an idea of Father's Day gift for any dads in your life who might thrilled by the grill.

You can follow these instructions for a Pizza Herb Garden and just change out some of the herbs.
Also here are some tips on getting started:

This is a great, green idea for an inexpensive, long lasting father’s day gift! I did something similar to this last year and my dad enjoyed it all summer long. I used http://www.greeneutopia.com to get some ideas. You can buy eco-friendly products on there, but it also has a lot of useful tips and tricks. Lots of gift ideas, too, if you’re feeling creative
My youngest sister is about to move into the city and won’t have a yard and wants me to make a “patio garden” for her, too!
