Carolyn Moran's Living Tree Paper Co. is a tiny Eugene, Ore., firm making forest-friendly paper. Instead of virgin wood pulp to make printing, writing, and specialty papers, Living Tree mixes imported industrial hemp and flax fibers with recycled office paper. The chlorine-free product-- marketed as Vanguard Recycled Plus-is virtually identical in appearance and quality to standard white office paper. The hemp-flax content gives the paper its strength to stand up to copying and printing.
