Enjoy Ayurvedic Rituals Together With Umm Skincare
Ayurveda is a great way for couples to boost their well-being. UMM combines ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern science, creating products that improve both inner wellness and outer skin health.

Book a Rural Retreat at the Peaceful Bloom Farm
This is at the top of our list of Valentine’s day gift ideas this year. We love Bloom Farm, a new regenerative concept in Pennsylvania’s Oley Valley. Bloom Farm believes food is a key medicine. Now, it sits on 60 acres of preserved land next to a limestone ridge. They are passionate about using nature’s rhythms to nourish their regenerative practices. They want to create a vibrant ecosystem of forests, pastures, and protected waterways. Bloom Farm is very careful in how they approach and steward their land. They use regenerative principles to help heal the land. Minimizing soil disturbance, adding diverse organic matter, and avoiding artificial additives. We love this place. It’s a mindful destination for solo or shared time. There are many conscious activities, from yoga classes to farm tours!
Diamonds From The Sky! Lab Grown Diamonds From Skydiamond
Founded by Dale Vince OBE, Skydiamond is the world’s first carbon-negative diamond. They alchemise their diamonds in England by harvesting carbon from the atmosphere to hold it forever in a diamond. They combine carbon with hydrogen from rainwater captured in the Cotswold countryside. Wind and sun provide their energy as their entire process is powered with their own renewables provided by their sister company, Ecotricity. Skydiamond work in harmony with nature’s own processes to create something beautiful and give people a creative solution to our environmental crisis.
Take A Course On Sustainable Flower Design!
One of our creative Valentine’s Day gift ideas this year is a flower workshop. We love the idea of growing our own sustainable flowers. It helps reduce carbon from shipping and pesticide use. Plus, we get to enjoy the beauty of our own flowering gardens! A top teacher on this topic is Milli Proust from Alma Proust, the sustainable seed shop. Paris Alma and Milli Proust run the farm. They grow everything organically. Sustainability guides every decision they make. Milli offers workshops to show you how to use their amazing sustainable flowers.

Book a Romantic Eco Retreat in Comporta, Portugal
We love Portugal for conscious travel, and Quinta da Comporta is a top spot there. This wellness retreat is as beautiful as it is thoughtful. Quinta da Comporta reflects local life in its architecture and décor. Every detail connects to the nearby natural reserve, creating a true inward journey. The neutral tones come from salvaged materials like wood, wicker, glass, and stone. Local artisans design the décor motifs, adding authentic color to each space. They power the hotel with solar panels and have an organic kitchen garden that provides seasonal cuisine!
An Avocado Delivery Subscription to Support Californian Farmers!
We recently searched for a sustainable avocado delivery service. We were excited to discover Primavera, which is both beautiful and thoughtful. Paul and Alice, a husband and wife team, run this family-owned company. It’s a great choice for those who support a seasonal food system. Primavera offers healthy avocados that are sustainably grown. They pick them only at peak ripeness for the best taste and nutrition. We love how easy it is to order too!
Grow An Organic Dress With Christy Dawn
Christy Dawn is one of our favorite ethical fashion lines. You can simply buy their lovely organic cotton dresses. Amazingly, you can grow a dress for that special loved one too! You invest $200 in the Oshadi Collective partner farm in India. This money supports regenerative cotton farming on 4,356 square feet of land. Helping Oshadi Collective care for this land makes growing regenerative organic cotton easier. This leads to the creation of beautiful, ethical dresses!
