Growing food and eating it occupied most of their time.

When you are used, it disappears? All that pops into mind is Bilbo at his grand party. Sauron's love, his ring. But it does not to those who are stronger than the Maiar. So it has to be something else.

Am I a cloak of the Galadhrim that blends in with the surroundings the wearer is located?

Empty!

I never noticed your comment here, forgive me my good dwarf!
No, I am not a vessel, though I do have similarities. As a hint, I feature in two of the official "Who, What, Where" sources from the OP.

Hi ho, @Periantar - Happy New Year! I keep passing this thread by. Are you a book-case with a tag tied to it that reads:
For the collection of HUGO BRACEGIRDLE, from a contributor; on an (empty) book-case. Hugo was a great borrower of books, and worse than usual at returning them.
?

@Drifa No, I'm afraid I am not a book-case. Definitely in the Shire. Don't have anything to do with the stories when I'm empty.

@Drifa I feel genuinely bad for not having been around at all...
No, I am not a chair, I am on somewhat of a larger scale than a chair or a bookcase; still in the Shire, still don't have anything to do with the stories (Tolkien's stories) when I'm empty.

Yes, you could eat small amounts of me. I am unsure how your stomach would react if you ate all of me.

Yes, I am mostly plant-based.
