Top of Town: Pampering Like a Valentine’s Pro
Originally produced by 360Durango
1. Passion Flower Bouquet Farm ($-$$)
Forego the single Valentine’s bouquet for a whole season of them with a bouquet subscription from Durango’s Passion Flower Bouquet Farm. After all, from girlfriends to old friends and all of the budding romances between, there will always be someone in your life who needs a bouquet to brighten their day!
You won’t get one in time for Valentine’s Day, but the gift will come back tenfold while the flowers are in season, May through October. Passion Flower is a local Community-Supported Agriculture option, meaning your subscription helps the farm purchase seeds and cover labor for all your beautiful bouquets to come (a worthy investment). The flowers, vase, and season help guide each week’s unique bouquet, and you’ll receive newsletters throughout the bloom so you can see what’s coming and pick which ones you want to opt into!
Through the month of February, Passion Flower is offering 10-percent off of their 10-bouquet subscription. It’s a unique way to support local business and extend your love throughout the year.
(Pssst, April’s Garden will also be showcasing Passion’s flowers in their bouquets this year if you want to get a whiff)
2. Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory ($-$$)
From Valentine’s Day gift baskets to a cute, fuzzy stuffed bear and a mini box of truffles for your sweetheart, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory has the goods that are guaranteed to provide instant gratification. Nothing says love like decadent chocolate!
Chocolate-dipped strawberries. Classic heart boxes of traditional chocolate assortments. Red velvet truffle bars. Apples dipped in gooey, bubbling caramel stirred in a traditional copper kettle and then rolled in a rainbow of tasty toppings. These are a few of his and her favorite things, so what are you waiting for?
