About Pip Magazine
The aim of Pip Magazine is to share ideas, information and inspiration about living more sustainably using permaculture principles. Pip Magazine is printed with 100% vegetable inks on a 100% recycled paper cover and FSC paper pages.
A visually beautiful publication, the gorgeous illustrations and photography inspire people to pick up a copy, and while flicking through it will find something that inspires them to make positive changes in their lives. The articles are practical, clear and accessible; you don’t need to have extensive knowledge about permaculture or sustainability to get something out of it. But it is also relevant to those who are already living a sustainable life and want more ideas and inspiration.
Pip Magazine’s articles encompass no-waste living, growing food, making compost, foraging, seed saving, preserving, fermenting, beekeeping, keeping chickens, green building, repair, DIY, crafting, recipes and much more.
