Thanks for checking out this sustainable valentine’s day gift guide. Valentine’s Day is the perfect occasion to celebrate love, and what better way to do so than with thoughtful, sustainable gifts? This year, consider expressing your love with products and services from brands that are not only plant-based but also committed to ethical and eco-friendly practices.
With this, I have to recognize that usually the most sustainable gifts are either experiences and services, or physical gifts that are homemade, locally crafted or second-hand. So I encourage you to go out to your favourite local market (or online market, like Etsy), create something, or even see if you can find some treasures at your local thrift store, to gift to your valentine this season.
However, if you are searching for some gift suggestions that happen to be from conscious brands, here are some of my personal favorites:
