When it comes to ordering paper supplies for our business or recommending eco conscious suppliers to clients, we always struggle. We have the option to buy post consumer recycled paper, handmade cotton paper and even hemp paper in Toronto, but sadly, at the end of the day most of that paper still makes its way to the landfill. Thank goodness for plantable herb/wildflower/veggie seed paper – it’s your zero-waste option and oh ya, it’s also gorgeous. You can find paper that grows garden herbs (cilantro, basil ect.), wildflowers, carrots, peas and many other fruits and vegetables. Just make sure that any flower paper you order is native to your region and won’t be invasive to plants in your area.
Custom designed seed paper can be used for:
Bridal Shower and Bachelorette Invitations
Save-the-Dates
Shower Thank You Cards
Greeting Cards for Family and Friends
Vow Books
Programs
Readings or Prayer Cards
Menus, Ceremony Signs
Drink or Dessert Signs

We ordered custom plantable herb paper – a parsley, basil and chive mix – from Whole Weddings for our business stationery needs this year. Kendra, the owner of Whole Weddings believes in less waste and more love – a theory we can really get behind. She has designed all her invitations tri-fold style – meaning that the card folds up to create an envelope (a super creative way to cut down on waste). Now we have a variety of herbs on our kitchen window sill grown from our used paper. How awesome is that?
