Advice From A Tree... Stand Tall and Proud Sink your roots deeply Reflect the light of a greater source Think long term Go out on a limb Feel the wind and the sun and delight in their presence Look up at the moon that shines down upon you and the mystery of the stars at night. Let your limbs sway and dance in the breezes Be flexible Remember your roots Enjoy the view

Why Paper Culture Plants Trees

  • We’re a paper company: moreso than most, trees are truly our business
  • We ALWAYS use 100% post-consumer recycled paper and/or alternative renewable fibers like cotton or bamboo which means our cards do not result in the cutting down of any new trees, however, that simply means that we do no harm to trees. We wanted to take it one step further by actively contributing to reforestation by planting trees.
  • Honestly, as founders, we knew we wanted to do something on a consistent basis and it was as simple as, we all just love trees!
  • Trees do amazing things - check out our list of tree facts
