It is our mission, at Green Writers Press, to spread a message of environmental activism through the words and images we publish. We also publish books that, while not quite related to that goal, speak to our quality of life and the beauty of nature. We use only FSC-certified papers printed at the following printers: in Vermont, at Springfield Printing Corporation and Villanti & Sons Printers Inc, and at a woman-owned printer, McNaughton & Gunn, in Michigan, along with our main printer, Bookmobile in Minneapolis. We adhere to GWP’s commitment to preserving and protecting the natural resources of the earth. To that end, a percentage of our profits is annually donated to environmental and social activist groups like 350.org, The Southern Poverty Law Foundation, and other groups that are actively seeking a better world for all people and the Earth.

Our books are printed with soy-based inks on paper made with a chlorine-free process, utilizing digital short-run printing, and offset technology. We adhere to GWP’s commitment of preserving and protecting the natural resources of the earth, utilizing responsible environmental, social, and economic practices. Environmentally responsible and sustainable practices are embraced within this, our mission statement. We are exploring printing on other materials as well, such as organic hemp from Canada, kenaf, and Arundo donax (similar to bamboo).
