Each pencil has a love-related quote engraved to spread the love:
- All things grow with love
- Absence makes the heart grow fonder
- When we love – we grow
- Love is the flower you’ve got to let grow
- Let love grow
It’s a great way of showcasing sustainability and encouraging people to think about recycling and the environment.
Why Sprout Pencils are special
- Non-toxic and plant-based seed capsules, so they’re perfectly safe if you accidently chew on them
- Variety of non-GMO seeds including basil, cherry tomato, chia, sage, thyme, sunflower, carnation, coriander, daisy and forget-me-not flowers
- Plastic-free, lead-free, 100% biodegradable and will decompose safely
- Around 14 billion pencils are produced worldwide each year – imagine if all these pencil stubs could turn into plants in the way these pencils do
