Heather Goesch has planted a tree in honor of Apollo Poetry

A tree for a poet.. Very fitting,.. Since creation + heart =’s the start. Where as, Paper meets ink,.. giving form to such an art.. And (among other things) We share deep roots & symbology in ink of poets, trees, and poetry where it meets skin. And this tree, I am dedicating not to you, but to us.. As a symbol of our symbiotic nature. As it grows, May we grow.. Both as individuals As well as together.

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!
