MEANDER MAGAZINE - VOLUME 1 RETURNING TO PLACE

Meander is a magazine for bioregional culture, slow living, and regenerative futures. Regeneration starts with reconnecting to the land, the seasons, and cultural rhythms of place. Meander curates stories, practical guides, and creative insights that inspire personal and community transformation.

In Volume 1 Returning to Place invites us to reimagine our relationship with the living world through the lens of regeneration. For millennia, humans lived in reciprocity with land, water, and kin; in the blink of history, we forgot. This first volume of Meander asks: how can we remember, and reinterpret these ways of living for future generations?

Across 144 pages, you’ll find stories of bioregioning and bioregional weaving, a playful quiz, a river’s voice recalling her watershed since the Ice Age, and reflections on wild swimming as restoration. Bayo Akomolafe offers a poetic etymology of “meandering,” while other voices explore inner transformation, practical toolkits, and regenerative culture across geographies.

Structured into four streams – Reflections, Field Notes, Rafts, and Currents – each perspective offers a different way into regeneration: through reflection, through lived experience, through tools, and through culture. As part of your oder you will receive the weekly Meander newsletter with stories, ideas and updates - you can opt out at any time.
