How to submit

• Process

  Email

• Cover letter

  In your cover message, please tell us something clever/witty/appropriate about yourself that we can use for our “Contributor’s Page” if we use your piece of garden writing.

• Eligibility

  No specific eligibility requirements

• Formatting

  We don't have formatting requirements for this magazine

• Author's rights

  We pay on acceptance, buy First North American Serial Rights (unless you’ve already published it somewhere else first; we’re happy to reprint garden writing pieces—as long as they’re good!).

• Additional info

  We want the best, personal (important word, that) garden writing we can get. We focus on the human side of gardening. On the people as well as the plants. Make sure your story includes real people (with names), dialog, a “show, not tell” approach, and a strong ending. We’re happy to reprint garden writing pieces—as long as they’re good! We generally can’t find time to read submissions until the month after an issue deadline. So your garden writing submission is likely to lie fallow until late in February, May, August, or November.
