Earthy but not crunchy, honest but not whiny, authentic without being preachy—how did the editors of H&F manage to create a cozy quarterly journal that I actually want in my home — and one that I truly feel is worth the subscription price? . . . Holding — and reading — H&F is a small yet comforting escape to a world where people consider the modern morass of cultural rot, but face it with hope—and blueberry picking. . . . I’m so glad I subscribed. Last quarter’s issue sits on my coffee table, next to our Sunday missals and Sandra Boynton board books. My 14 reads it and shows me his favorite articles. I drink my morning coffee from the subscriber’s mug. It’s all a blessing. These editors have my thanks.

A beautiful journal with beautiful articles about what really matters in life.

I’m overjoyed to have discovered Hearth & Field’s print subscription. I much prefer to read physical vs digital, and the paper and picture quality is stunning. The content is exactly my niche: from-scratch cooking, homestead knowledge, morally-grounded philosophical essays. A gem!

I always enjoyed the electronic version of Hearth & Field, but recently felt called to read less on screens. I started leaving my phone in the car after work. Needing more to read, but not always wanting a book, I took a chance and subscribed. I read the print version from cover to cover in about a week! I love it. I can read for 10-15 minutes and feel very satisfied. I also feel strangely connected to the authors and readership. There are more of “us” out there. Put down the phone and read something real!

Hearth & Field is like a retreat in print form. I savor the mornings that include pour over coffee and an entry from one (or two if my kids sleep in) of the thoughtfully selected authors. The journal has been the perfect mix of reality and a vision of heaven. Enough to reinvigorate me for the moment and leave me longing for the ideal

Hearth & Field's print edition is worth holding onto. The beautiful essays and art encourage a philosophical consideration of the farmer and craftsman life, based on God and nature, on growing and making, on family —ideas so old they're new.

I have thoroughly enjoyed Hearth & Field as a unique publication that emphasizes the importance of the work of our hands, together with the work of our minds. It's a joy to see a publication publish articles, recipes, poetry, and stories, that recognize the grounding effect that the work of the land and laboring with our hands gives us, all while conveying such content in a beautiful, high-quality way.

I have enjoyed [the] newsletter for years, but often wished I could have an edition to hold in my hand and refer back to and reread. Also it is such a pleasure to hold the marvelous artwork in my hands. This is a treasure! Your contributors are excellent and inspire me and give me hope. “A Quest for Real Life” is such a great subtitle and I think you are living up to it. So I think this journal is worth every penny.

I am an herbalist who enjoys milling around in my garden as much as my kitchen. Hearth & Field seemed right up my alley and did not disappoint-from the beautiful print to the whimsical artwork and the multitude of topics in their articles this is definitely a journal I will want to grow with as I go through this journey of life. 10/10 would recommend, and if I could give a higher rating I would. I love it so much! Thank you all!

I enjoy Hearth & Field because the writings always somehow bring me back to what’s important in life. Some articles remind me of childhood, some of my parenting of four children and some are just so well written with interesting topics that I’m reminded of how much I love reading. Living out on a rice and crawfish farm in rural southwest Louisiana sometimes you can feel like you’re missing something in city life, Hearth & Field often reminds me, I have it pretty good!

Hearth & Field celebrates the art of living with depth. Blending culture, homesteading, and poetry, it explores the unique facets of human experience, offering profound insights into our shared journey.

I've been waiting for a publication like this for years. The quality of the paper is a delight to hold. The writing is like ambling through a terrain you don't want to end. The accompanying artwork stops you in your tracks to engage even more of your senses. This is not a publication you would throw aside.

I have been a Heath & Field reader since its earliest days. I come from a small town and constantly think back to the simpler times. Times when neighbors helped neighbors. Streets and parks were safe, kids played outdoors until dark and all was right with the world. Reading the articles, recipes and short essays in Hearth & Field helped me to realize that we can go back. [They have] been able to bring out the best in humanity today while drawing on the lessons of the past. Personally it has kept me focused on my dream of creating small affordable communities with a spiritual foundation to give others a chance to discover life’s incredible possibilities. I cannot put into words how much Heath & Field has meant to me. You would do well to subscribe and see for yourself.

Hearth & Field is a wellspring of thought-provoking articles and art that help me not only escape the world of computer screens, but also reminds me how I hunger for beauty and the wholesome aspects of life. Heart & Field has sparked lively and normative discussions with friends and family, and reminds me that there is an analogue world waiting to be embraced. The quality of the publication lends a tactile as well as visual delight to the reading experience. I am considering gift subscriptions for my family members. It is wonderful to experience such quality and substance in our day and age.

I have recently finished reading my first subscription of H&F cover to cover and can't say enough good about it! Each day I would read an article with a cup of coffee. It was sheer delight! Their truly is something for everyone, short story, history, recipes, poems, gardening tips, animal husbandry and much more! It makes a wonderful gift as I know first hand. My mom gifted it to me, my sister, and later my brother. He was over at my house about a month ago for a birthday party. And as it was lying on the coffee table, he picked it up and was hooked. With Christmas coming up in a few months, it can sometimes be hard to find just the right gift. This year H&F has make it easy.

I felt like a kid at Christmas receiving the best toy ever when my Hearth & Field print magazine arrived. My post office had tempted me for several days saying there was a package on its way to me . . . and then the package finally arrived. Wrapped carefully, it lay on my doorstep just awaiting to go inside and get comfy with me. And get comfy we did. . . . so very much temptation and so many lovely things to read and then read all over again. I tempt guests by leaving my copy out on the ottoman and they lose themselves in it as they scan and ‘ooh and aah’. Bravo! Well done! Keep up the good work! Thank you for spoiling me with a beautiful print edition in an age of cheap lesser dones.

When I pick up my copy of Hearth & Field, the weight of the binding moves me toward the most comfortable chair in my home; pages of pleasing figures and colors complete the seated scene of a warm and nicely appointed room. Then the conversation begins—ideas shared among old friends and friends I'm happy to meet for the first time.

After reading something in the Magnificat by Gina Loehr a couple of years ago, I did a little research and it led me to Hearth & Field, which I promptly signed up for. I love all the heartwarming stories of people's everyday life, and the fabulous recipes, and the artwork throughout is so special. I do love reading G. K. Chesterton and all the stories of long ago. Some could be written for today. One more thing . . . [the editor's] stories are full of life and laughter!

My husband . . . gifted me [the] print subscription for Christmas, and it was one of the loveliest presents I had the pleasure of receiving. As a homemaker, I feel "buoyed up" both intellectually and spiritually by the edifying and joy-filled content . . . . It is a pleasure to delve into your articles. I love the diverse mix of poetry, essays, recipes, and interviews. Like I mentioned before, it fills both my head and my heart with beauty.

Hearth & Field is a refreshingly antiquated periodical. It is not flashy, nor is it sensational. It is, however, wonderful. The articles and artwork are timeless, the quality of the actual printed product begs for a long term spot on a bookshelf, and it is wholesome, uplifting, at times funny, and always informative. When I received my first issue, I felt bad because I wasn't sure that my subscription cost was enough to cover the quality I received. I consider those who write, edit, publish, and print it to be a blessing to my life directly, though I've never met any of them. In short, Hearth & Field is well worth my dollars and my time.

I was given a subscription to Hearth & Field and am very impressed with the first print edition. Beautifully bound, the quality and care are evident. The essays, recipes, and garden tips are a curious mix but combine beautifully. Thoughtful writers best savored at leisure from the comfort of your favorite reading chair.

An oasis in this chaotic world and a sign of hope for our future. And [the] sense of humor is very welcome!!!

The first issue of Hearth & Field was a delight. I’ve been reading their work online for a few years now, but the print version is a beautiful and aesthetically pleasing volume that better suits the nature of their work (and, dare I say, us readers). It is a thoroughly enjoyable antidote to the inhumanity of our times.

I do so enjoy reading Hearth & Field from cover to cover. The writing is so good and inspiring. The art work that is included is very good and beautiful. I think that this magazine chases after truth, beauty and goodness!

A sanctuary from AI and other soul-deadening trends, Hearth & Field restores my hope for the future! I couldn't refuse the offer of becoming "less scattered and more grounded," and can testify that this newsletter delivers on that promise in every issue. Thank you, H&F, and may God bless you!

Hearth & Field showed up in my mailbox just as I was just trying to find more room in the farm freezer for our blueberry harvest. Please bear with me. This was relevant because a significant portion of the first issue was dedicated to blueberries. I like that randomness, that eccentricity, such as the piece on wondering around Paris as a child and fearlessly greeting adults, that made my investment seem worthwhile. I hadn’t been sure what to expect when I subscribed, sight unseen, to a noble effort to launch a print (you can hold it and save it) publication. But an excellent recipe for blueberry jam, among so much else, was just what I needed. Looking forward to seeing what comes next.

Where do I start? Hearth & Field has proven itself to be a source of rich, intelligent information and perspectives. I find myself staying up long past my bedtime engrossed in an article on the prophetic writings of technocracy from one hundred years ago or finding inspiration for my family's next meal or experiencing fellowship with an author sharing the same struggles that I do in caring for and keeping a home. But most importantly, Hearth & Field — and its smart, witty, and relatable writers — have given me permission and space to create a life grounded in the peace of reality, whilst surrounded by the hungry, consumption-driven world that waits outside my door. Thank you for creating such a brilliant publication.

Having reached the sparkling age of seventy, Hearth & Field is an oasis in the desert of our current American culture. In correcting some of the wrongs of the past, it seems the baby has gone out with the bath. The goodness of faithfulness to a Christian religion, traditional family, community-building get-togethers, genuine work ethic, and solid personal integrity seem sidelined, in fact marginalized and hated. Thank you, Hearth & Field, for promoting all these good and beautiful aspects that once were a vital part of the American way of life.

My younger son asked me what I was reading a couple of days ago, and I found myself trying to explain to him what Hearth & Field was. I told him it was a periodical about a lot of different things from how to raise chickens to poetry to favorite family recipes. It also includes great essays and thoughts from both contemporary and classic writers like Hilaire Belloc, G.K. Chesterton, and Willa Cather. In the end, I told him it was about being human. Hearth & Field is full of humanity and how to slow down and enter into that humanity. It reminds me how to be a real human being, a full human being. When I feel my humanity slipping and getting caught up with the myriad distractions of the world, I pick up Hearth & Field and am drawn back to reality.

Thank you H&F for publishing such beautiful writings. The printed edition has not only become a lovely coffee table book, but also my favorite read. The writings are 21st century storytelling! Bridging what was cherished of the past with relevance of today, and always with a touch of humor.

It was a rather tangled yarn ball that led me to Hearth & Field; and once I arrived, I felt right at home. The magazine and newsletter have been such a joy to read. It's obvious that much care and thought is put into each article, work of art, and quote. Peace and rest is a gift we are given from our Lord and Savior, not as the world gives for it is a different and lasting kind of peace and rest; when I read through the refreshing and restoring words written by my fellow brethren I feel rested, blessed and at peace. It is a worthy and uplifting work that they have put their hands to and I am grateful to be connected to them in this way.

Having discovered Hearth&Field a few years ago, I immediately found an intellectual home and enjoyed the writing style of [the editor], and the atmosphere and pictures of every issue. . . . . The first article in the print issue of Heart&Field kept me glued to my seat: “The Prophets of Technocracy” by Ben Reinhard: how he traces “a fundamental sympathy between the technocratic scientist and the diabolist magician” . . . .In the article “The Robot Barons” by Samuel Butterofen, the monopolists are ruthlessly ingesting the wealth of the world . . . I was surprised to learn about the German background of Aldo Leopold in “Integrity & Beauty” by Dr. Jeff Gardner. And now I know what to do “With all this Swiss Chard.”

"I first fell in love with Hearth & Field via the email subscription. It was the only email I would read in its entirety and then patiently await the following months issue. When the print issue became available, I immediately subscribed without hesitation. . . .[M]y inbox is constantly overflowing with the demands of the world and I truly appreciate Hearth & Field's ability to "transport" me and provide nourishment for my very weary mind and soul. . . . The authors are brilliant, the topics diverse, and the staff are a truly kind and caring group of people. If you are seeking a periodic escape from the chaos of this world, that includes deep and meaningful words put to paper, subscribe to Hearth & Field."

Hearth & Field has been a source of light in dark times when many other lights are going out. Contained within its pages are humor, wisdom, and practical advice to lighten the heart, fortify the soul, and pave the way for new adventures. I cannot express how uplifting it has been to read the first two issues, and my wife and I eagerly await each that is to come. Consider us subscribers for life.
