Sweetgrass Greeting Card

Our greeting cards are memorable, eco-friendly, celebrations of Canada!

Each folded A2 greeting card is blank inside and measures 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" (10.8 cm x 14 cm). With its elegant linen finish, the cardstock we have selected is the perfect backdrop to our unique Canadian designs. A quality square-flap envelope accompanies every card.

Both our greeting card and its accompanying envelope are carbon neutral (made with 100% wind power) and FSC certified. They are also elemental chlorine free and lignin free. Even the clear packaging that protects each card and envelope is eco-friendly: instead of plastic, it is constructed from a plant-based material!

Designed and printed in Canada.

Did you know?!

Sweetgrass, sometimes called Holy Grass, is a highly fragrant grass that can be found near rivers and other wet areas in many parts of Canada. It has traditionally been used in basketmaking, as a room freshener, purifying smudge and medicine. Increasingly, it can also be found in artisan soaps and candles.

An accomplished artist and natural scientist, the painter of this image of sweetgrass was Norman Criddle (1875-1933). As provincial entomologist for Manitoba, one of his accomplishments was devising a solution, called the “Criddle Mixture”, to the devastation caused to crops by grasshoppers. His family’s home in Aweme has been designated a Manitoba Provincial Heritage Park.
