Unpainted Pencil: Our favorite pencil ever. Made from sustainably-forested incense cedar by General’s Pencil Company in New Jersey (one of the last American pencil factories), and not sullied by a coat of paint that creates micro plastics when sharpened (paint is plastic).
Metal Sharpener: German made, compact, and equipped with two replacement blades built in.
Wax Highlighter: These "china markers" have been around for ages, and their bright yellow wax makes them the perfect replacement for disposable plastic highlighters.
Stainless Steel Pen + Refill: Available as an add-on. This substantial stainless steel ballpoint pen is a handsome reminder that pens should not be disposable. Even the extra ink cartridges are plastic free.

+ Unpainted, Sustainably Forested Pencil
+ Metal Sharpener, 2 extra blades

Hundreds of millions of plastic, vinyl, nylon, and canvas pencil cases are eternally stuck in landfills, and millions more sit on store shelves soon to be added.
Our recyclable aluminum pencil tin is intentionally slim and fitted with the essentials you need, and nothing you don't.

SHIPPING
Orders typically packed within 24-48 hours Monday - Friday.
Orders ship via USPS or UPS. Shipping prices are the actual rates we pay (the true cost of shipping from Northern CA. - Sorry Maine!). As we grow, we will negotiate more favorable shipping rates, but for now, we pack every order (plastic-free), load up our cars, and deliver to a post office in a nearby town because our local Post Office refuses to accept or pick up the “large” number of packages we have outgoing on a normal basis.
Thanks for your patience while we navigate how to scale what we’re doing!
I've been looking for a notebook and pencil set for a long time! This is perfect for my crochet & knitting needs. I can jot down my notes to patterns. I love the pencil case. It's quiet because of the soft wool. I don't hear the rattling when I take it out of my bag. My favorite part is I'm not being wasteful with lots of paper everywhere. Everything I need is compact thin and not bulky.
I am over the moon Happy!
Unique
This little box is so well made and beautifully done. I love the wool lining inside and all the good things that go with it! I can highly recommend this to anybody that cares about saving our planet.
Bought to place in an emergency kit. Perfect! Thank you!
I ordered a pencil tin set as a graduation gift. I was accidently sent someone else's order instead of my own. Wisdom Supply immediately rectified this situation by shipping what I originally ordered in record time, so I was able to give the gift. I love all the products in the pencil tin. I have one, my husband has one. And we enjoy gifting products we love and enjoy and are sustainable. I'm impressed that the customer service performs at the same level of excellence as their products.
Introducing the newest edition to our favorite set of zero-waste writing essentials -

*Produced in small bacthes - limited quantities avaialble
New features based on teacher survey feedback:
+ Monthly At-A-Glance Expanded to two page spread accompanied with a full notes page
+ Months visually tabbed to easily flip to current month
+ 6 columns per weekday - 3 columns per weekend day
+ Optional header line for subjects
+ Perforated corners
Highly requested additional note pages.
We received a number of requests for additional notes pages in the Weekly Planner, but this year the page count was increased a full 16 pages due to the inclusion of monthly spreads throughout the book. Adding 4 more notes pages (requires increments of 4) pushed it beyond our wallet zone with paper availability scarce, and costs at record highs.
