The Valentine's Day Phantom Strikes Portland Again ❤️

For the 47th year in a row, Portland's downtown has been covered in hundreds of red hearts!

In 1976, Portland's city dwellers woke up to red hearts plastered around the city. Who did it? No one knew, but the mysterious tradition has continued ever since!

We still don't know who is responsible for the festive decorations, but it's easy to see why there is so much love in this city.

We chose Maine for our U.S. headquarters because of its incredible community and appreciation for Earth’s natural resources, and we couldn’t be happier here in Portland 🥰

❤️ Thank you, Valentine's Day Phantom(s?), for spreading the love! ❤️
