With plenty of opportunities to shop and celebrate Valentine’s Day with local offerings, True Dakotan readers are encouraged to peruse through the pages of this week’s print and e-edition for gift ideas plus dining and entertainment options for a fun Valentine’s night out.
Gifts Galore available locally
From flowers to sweet treats, local businesses and student groups have every Valentine covered no matter the taste.
On Thursday February 13, students will be selling baked goods at the home double header basketball game during the “Sweets For Your Sweetie” event. What could be sweeter? All the proceeds raised go toward Sanford Children’s Hospital.
In a unique, local business collaboration, Ranchy Stems, Sweet Grass and Springs Food Market have teamed up to provide a variety of unique gifts. For those who enjoy the vino, fresh bouquets from Ranchy Stems paired with locally crafted Corner Post Wine will be available at Springs Food Market.
Two favorites in one, a fresh flower bouquet from Ranchy stems paired with a large latte from Sweet Grass is also available for $20.
No Valentine’s day would be complete without Sweet Grass chocolate-dipped strawberries. They sell out fast so pre-orders are suggested.
The newest kid on the block when it comes to floral design and delivery is 2nd and Bloom. Find out more about the retail florist in the adjacent story.

Looking to treat your sweetheart to something special? Sweet Grass is featuring a supper for two which includes two drinks, two main entrees, salad bar and dessert to split. Heather and the girls suggest calling in soon for reservations.
