FAQ
Good questions deserve answers.
Every month you receive a real physical envelope containing: a cultural story letter, a recipe card from the featured storyteller, an original art print by our Artist in Residence, a botanical illustration card (common name, Latin name, and origin on the back), and a sticker.
Letters go out on the 1st of every month. Subscribe before the cutoff — one week prior to mailing — to receive that month's letter. Subscribe after the cutoff and your first letter ships the following month.
Each month's featured storyteller selects a charity meaningful to them. We donate 10% of that month's subscription revenue directly to their chosen cause. We share the charity on our website alongside the storyteller spotlight.
Letters are sent via USPS Forever Stamp (standard postage) so tracking is not included. Please allow 5–7 business days for delivery within the US.

Yes and yes! We are actively looking for storytellers from all cultures and backgrounds, and we welcome artist applications for our quarterly residency program. Reach out via our contact page — we'd love to hear from you.
