Wonderground Journal Issue Four is a biannual print journal that positions nature, culture, and care as urgent, intertwined subjects — gathering ecologists, writers, musicians, and gardeners into a single, richly layered conversation about how we relate to the living world.
About This Book
Published by Planthunter Projects, Wonderground has carved out a distinct space in the landscape of nature writing by refusing the binary between grief and optimism. Issue Four holds both: like a healthy forest, it carries light and dark in equal measure. The contributors here are not decorative — ecologist David Lindenmayer brings scientific rigour to questions of biodiversity, while writer Inga Simpson reflects on her wild family farm, and musician Paul Kelly connects love, poetry, and trees. The journal's consistent strength is its willingness to sit with complexity, making it essential reading for anyone thinking seriously about ecological culture and the Anthropocene.
