With Valentine’s Day coming up, Greene County residents are encouraged to think, shop and celebrate locally.

Jefferson Matters Executive Director Matt Wetrich says there are a lot of options for people to treat their loved ones this Valentine’s Day.

“There are a lot of great things around Greene County to do on Valentine’s Day. We’ve got a variety of places in the surrounding communities and within Jefferson to go out for dinner, you’ve got different places you can get flowers, live flowers, for your sweetheart here, if you’re that kind of Valentine-giver. But a lot of neat little gifts and trinkets around town too, a little extra something-something for your sweetie. Shop locally here. Again, Valentine’s Day, you can show your love to your significant other, and to your favorite local businesses as well.”
