We create our paper goods with great care and love in our studio in Palo Cedro, California! Loren writes and creates each design, often using sketching and handwriting, and then pairs it with the perfect paper color. Our papermakers transform natural fibers into beautiful, plant-dyed, deckle-edged sheets, and our press team prints them one-at-a-time on our antique letterpresses and packages them up for you! Scroll down for more details about our artisan making process.
Our team carefully packs up your order and ships it via the method you choose at checkout. Orders ship within one to three business days.
Please email us at shipping@farmette.co if you need your order to arrive by a certain date, and we will do everything we can to accommodate.
