In 1984, we started Chelsea Green with the conviction that growing your own food is inherently political. Today, we're the leading publisher of books on the politics and practice of sustainable living. We lead the industry both in terms of content — with foundational books on organic farming, integrative health, organic gardening, sustainable food and drink, sustainable business, green & renewable energy, and ecology & the environment — and in terms of environmental practice, by printing on recycled paper.
Because of our commitment to the politics and practice of sustainability, we want you to feel that being a part of our community means more to you than just buying our books—we want it to be about spreading the word about the work of our authors, the value of their ideas. You can do that through social media, like Facebook and Twitter, but you can also do that through your conversations with friends and family.
To help you spread the word, we're offering 25% off your next purchase!
Thank you for everything you do.
