Glebe Cottage

Glebe Cottage is not a Fair Trade supplier but it is an environmentally friendly supplier of cards and paper products.  Glebe Cottage was founded by art college student, Scott Morrish back in 1993 with the intention of supporting his passion for photography. He set up an "office" in his bedroom (of his parent's house - the original Glebe Cottage) and a darkroom in a garden shed.  With the additional support of the Princes Youth Business Trust the first four Glebe Cottage cards were created, featuring images of wild Dartmoor scenes. Glebe Cottage now publishes over 400 designs from artists, Scott's photography and with a much valued partnership with The Wildlife Trust and supplies independent retailers all over the UK.

Materials used in production are either FSC certified or 100% recycled.  Envelopes are 100% recycled, ink is vegetable based and alcohol free and the bags are made of corn starch and compostable.
