Are there any gardening magazines with practical information that is specific to the Pacific Northwest?
There are numerous newsletters and small magazines from Northwest organizations like Seattle Tilth, Plant Amnesty, and Washington Park Arboretum. There are relatively few mainstream magazines that only discuss PNW gardening issues. Here are two which are published in British Columbia that you might try:
GardenWise (B.C.)
Gardens West (B.C.)
Feel free to come into the Miller Library and browse our periodicals collection, which includes the newsletters and magazines listed above.
The Miller Library website has many links to online resources, many of which are Pacific Northwest-specific. For example, you can find local organizations and plant societies, as well as websites specific to gardening in our region.
