Why Fair Trade Wholesale Paper from Ganesh Himal?

The paper, made from the bark of the Daphne or “lokta” is renowned for its exceptional durability and wonderful texture. Daphne grows in the Himalayan forests of north central Nepal between 4,000-8,000 ft. Lokta cutters sustainably collect the bark of the daphne according to the “Lokta Management Plan” that implements a 6 to 8 year rotation cycle to preserve the fragile forest ecology. Harvesters sell the bark to families to use for making paper.Nepali’s have been producing handmade paper in their villages for over a thousand years and still use it in their daily lives. We work directly with producers to design a range of beautiful and functional Fair Trade wholesale journals, card sets, stationary, wrapping paper, paper wall hangings, gift bags and journals.
