Intrepid Gardens is looking for gardeners and writers to build up the community

Our goal here at Intrepid Gardens is to build a comprehensive resource for tropical and subtropical gardeners to learn about permaculture and its multitude of applications. Though we are currently advertising our own services, we want to also create an informal global network of tropical practitioners where you have the opportunity to share expert advise and promote your services.

We invite you to collaborate with like-minded individuals who practice permaculture and urban food production all around the world. No formal writing experience is required as we will do all necessary editing and provide you with an audience and opportunity to hone your skills.

While there are many platforms for sharing this kind of information, we would like to build a go-to resource for tropical urban gardeners. Let’s take the bits we share on Reddit, Twitter, and elsewhere, and flesh them out for those eager to learn more.

Like what we are doing but want to contribute in other ways?

We are interested in building a strong, core team around this so please feel free to share your ideas for collaboration. Vloggers, Social Media wizards, forum gurus – all are welcome.

The Details

Our primary focus is subtropical/tropical gardening and urban food production.

Topics and content can vary based on our current categories – Farm + Garden, At Home, Technology + Design, and Community.

You tell us how often you can contribute (weekly, monthly, daily) and we will work you into the schedule.

Articles will be published under your name and can include a short author bio and appropriate links.

All content must be original and unique to the Intrepid Gardens website.

IG reserves the rights to the articles even after you stop writing for us, with appropriate credit to the author maintained.

*The Benefits

Remuneration is provided in the form of publicity and links to your own website or social media. If you have your own consultation practice or community project, these can be featured with your author bio. Write or otherwise contribute to the site for six months and we’ll give you a full page to build a profile and advertise your services.
