Spread love this Valentine’s Day without breaking the bank!
Let’s not forget how Valentine’s Day has turned into a big commercial extravaganza; at the heart of it all, it’s all about spreading love!
Cheers to tummy-friendly delicious bouquets, massive love, and bacteria-filled Valentine’s bashes every single day!
- Sprinkle some magic this Valentine’s Day by gifting your sweetheart a flourishing rose bush or a majestic tree (maybe a quirky organic fruit tree for a fruity twist) to plant in your little love nest.
- Swap out the usual landfill-bound chocolates for homemade goodies like heart-shaped biscuits or cakes that scream “I put my heart into this!”
- The heart – the epicentre of love, dreams, and desires – a mysterious beauty like no other.
- Craft a love-filled pie with “I Love You” baked right in.
- Ditch the store-bought gifts and get crafty! Think self-painted pottery, a snapshot you captured, cosy hand-knitted socks, a sweet serenade you composed, or a thoughtful donation in their honour to your favourite charity.
- Whip up a charming basket brimming with homemade delights, jazzed up with garden ribbons and sprigs for that extra touch of love.
- It’s easy to make a small heart shaped wreath. Wrap kitchen herbs and flowers along two equal lengths of wire or vine. Bind together at one end, then form a heart shape. Decorate with ribbons.
Why not start the special day with a candle lit breakfast?
Make a Herb Pillow with fabric scraps and ribbons etc. - Air dried herbs work best. You may cheat a little with some pure essential oils if stocks are low in the garden.
Try Rosemary, Basil, Scented Geraniums etc…
Candles (paraffin-free), flowers (organic), ribbons, and handwritten, heartfelt messages. - These are the magic ingredients to make a celebration…
- Add edible flowers to your fermentation projects – kimchi and sauerkraut come to mind
Plan an evening stroll through a nearby park, forest, or beach. - Hold hands, stare at the stars and moon, and listen to the sounds of nature.
- If it’s raining, find a covered vista or gondola and kiss to keep warm.
- Wake up early when the sun rises and collect foraged flowers and greens and ferment for gut – loving goodness!!!
Have a family picnic under the stars or make reservations at an eco-friendly organic restaurant, or don your chef’s hat and prepare an organic feast that’s good to the taste buds and good to the planet.
“When I say I love you more, I don’t mean I love you more than you love me.
I mean I love you more than the bad days ahead of us, I love you more than any fight we will ever have.
I love you more than the distance between us, I love you more than any obstacle that could try and come between us.
I love you the most.”

A wonderful feeling of belonging, feels great, dispels loneliness and opens doors to feelings, communication and the list goes on.
