If you’re looking for a corporate gift that’s useful, memorable, and genuinely eco-friendly, a plantable seed paper calendar is hard to beat. It sits on your desk for 12 months—and then turns into flowers or herbs instead of landfill waste. At REIGN GREEN, we make plantable calendars from biodegradable seed paper so your brand can grow goodwill, not trash.
What Is a Plantable Seed Paper Calendar?
A plantable calendar is printed on handmade seed paper—paper embedded with real, non-GMO seeds. When the month is over, you can tear or cut the sheet, soak it in water, plant it in soil, and watch it sprout. It’s a purposeful twist on traditional calendars, designed for sustainable offices, CSR initiatives, and eco-conscious events.
