The Idea

What if you didn’t throw away pencil stubs, but instead planted them and enjoyed watching something delicious and beautiful grow? We asked ourselves this very question and invented Sprout. We are excited to present the first growing pencil!

Material
Non-toxic - contains no lead; the writing material is made of graphite and clay. Eco-friendly winner - awarded as the most environmentally friendly product in the world in 2013. High standards - high-quality pencil body made from sustainable cedar wood.

How it Works
Getting seeds to germinate and nurturing a large, beautiful plant is not easy. It requires active care and attention for fresh herbs to grow from the pencil. The Sprout pencil contains organic seeds. Did you know that the Sprout pencil contains no lead? Therefore, planting or eating the herbs that grow from the pencil is completely risk-free.

Planting
Sprout is a high-quality pencil made from cedar wood. At the end of the pencil, there is a seed capsule activated by water. When exposed to moisture, the seed capsule breaks down and begins to germinate.

Growing
Water your Sprout regularly and ensure it gets plenty of sunlight. The pencil needs direct sunlight to germinate and grow. Expect 2-3 weeks for the pencil to germinate, and 4-5 weeks before you can use your fresh herbs for cooking.

About Sprout
The pencil is made from cedar wood sourced from sustainable forestry. It contains no lead, only graphite and clay. After writing and planting, a small pencil stub remains. While it is non-toxic, it is still there.

Made in Poland.
