Why subscribe?
Pinch of Dirt is a monthly newsletter about nature, outdoor adventure, and the environment.
It was named one of the “Best Outdoorsy Email Newsletters” by Outside Magazine in 2021.
For even more outdoorsy content, follow @PinchDirt on Twitter.
Who writes Pinch of Dirt? I do! I am a journalist, an enthusiastic hiker and backpacker, and an urban/backyard gardener.
Why? I started this newsletter in 2017 to share the best nature, travel, and adventure writing I found on the internet, and to try my hand at crafting some of my own.
Where did your logo/image come from? I snagged the illustration from the public domain. It originally appeared in a book titled The Gardener’s Assistant: A Practical and Scientific Exposition of the Art of Gardening in all its Branches.
How can I show my support? While paid subscriptions are paused, you can share the posts you like most on social media and forward the newsletter to your friends.
