Struck by cupid’s arrow? Consider these Valentine’s Day green gift ideas: Make your own message-in-a-bottle by reusing a glass bottle and including a romantic letter. Give live flowering plants instead of cut flowers. Consider organic fair trade chocolate. For a romantic outing, skip the traditional dinner out and take a walk together in a park or garden. Battle Park, Carolina North, Coker Arboretum, and the North Carolina Botanical Garden are all fantastic local options.
