Valentine’s Day Eco-Friendly Tips:
Consider a potted plant instead of a flower bouquet – better for the environment and likely easier on
your wallet!
Make your own cards/presents using recycled materials.
Give locally and ethically grown flowers where possible and be sure to add these to your yard waste
or compost once they wither.
Gift an experience that your loved-one will treasure, rather than an item.
Offer fair trade chocolates with ethically sourced cacao for your valentine’s sweet tooth.
Don’t forget to reuse or recycle paper cards and cardboard gift boxes after the 14th!
