You can buy live tree seedlings and seed favors from the GreenWorld Project. The trees make an environmentally and earth-friendly addition to weddings, receptions, bridal showers, or other gatherings. The spruce, pine and cypress trees are matched to the shipping location to ensure viability. Because they can be planted, they can be a lasting memento for their recipients.
Along with tree seedlings, the site sells birdseed for weddings (it’s more environmentally friendly than rice) and has a number of packaging options as well as personalized cards and plant hang tags to choose from.
