They’re looking for short reported stories (300 to 400 words) for their front-of-book section. The stories should be “timely and relevant to an audience of landscape architects, planners, parks professionals, urban designers, and other allied practitioners.” They’re particularly interested in hearing from underrepresented regions and/or communities. They pay $400 per article and review pitches on a rolling basis. To learn more, read their contributing editor’s Twitter thread and their pitch guide.

This is the magazine of the American Society of
Landscape Architects, and they publish monthly. Their audience primarily
comprises landscape architecture professionals and students in the US and
abroad, as well as city planners. Their secondary audience is in allied
professionals such as architects and engineers, but also decision makers such
as politicians and public officials, university or corporate heads, real estate
developers, regulators, and a wide spectrum of people who collaborate with
landscape architects, such as scientists (botanists, ecologists), geographers,
horticulturists, construction specialists, and product manufacturers. They want
pitches on all aspects of the built environment – including designed landscapes, soil science, environmental justice, urban habitat,
and rural equity, all with a Climate Crisis frame. See their extensive guidelines on what kind of pitches work for them, and
which do not. Details here (Tweet) and here (contributor guidelines).

Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA). They publish on a monthly basis. They
are currently accepting pitches. Their acting editor has tweeted, “Did you know
we pay for stories on all aspects of the built enviro? Designed landscapes,
soil science, enviro justice, urban habitat, rural equity, just a few, all with
a climate crisis frame.” They “generally do not allow people to write
about projects they’ve worked on, and writers are expected to disclose in print
(and to the editors before assignment) any relationship to the story subject.” They pay $1 per word for most of their
stories. Send pitches to lam@asla.org. To learn
more, read their acting editor’s Tweet
