Nancy Ray has planted a tree in honor of In memory of my mom, Dorothy
You taught me how to reuse paper making Christmas gift tags from old cards and even cutting off the backs of cards to use a book marks and grocery lists. You saved the paper from the packages that backed your stockings. It was always fun to see what you had in your craft cupboard and helped to make me a better Kindergarten teacher. I miss you mom!

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!
