Gardening Mama (Japanese: ガーデニングママ, Hepburn: Gādeningu Mama) (stylized as gardening mama) is a gardening simulation-styled minigame compilation video game for the Nintendo DS, and it was later ported to iOS in 2010. It is a spin-off from the Cooking Mama series.

The gameplay is similar to that of Cooking Mama, with players using the stylus to plant bulbs, dig trenches and water plants. Players can also make items such as jack-o-lanterns and jams from their fruits and vegetables, and players can trade their produce with others.

A sequel to Gardening Mama, Gardening Mama 2: Forest Friends, was released for the 3DS in September 2013.
