Calling all lovebirds: ready or not, Valentine’s Day is tomorrow! There are many ways to celebrate the holiday, but we’d like to share a few of our favorite green gift and date ideas.

These Valentine’s Day dates will make that special night a little greener and your wallet a little happier:

• Cook a meal at home—Use organic, local produce of course!
• Enjoy the great outdoors—Start a garden, go for a hike or simply take a walk through the park.
• Go stargazing—There’s something romantic about the constellations. Bundle up and enjoy the stories told by the night sky!

No Valentine’s Day is complete without a gift for your sweetheart. These gift ideas will show that special someone just how green your heart is:

• Buy organic—Conventional flowers are filled with pesticides. Buy from local or certified organic sources instead. Even better, try a potted plant for love that’ll never wilt.
• Life is like a box of chocolates—If you buy organic, she’ll know exactly what she’s going to get.
• Handmade green gifts—Nothing says I love you more than a handmade gift. Use upcycled materials to create anything from a candle jar to a one-of-a-kind greeting card.

How green is your special day going to be? After all, this Valentine’s Day, green is the new red!
