Some wonderful news
Same plants. Different garden.
After an incredible two years with Scribehound, the Garden Collective is digging up the shrubs, potting up the perennials, and putting the tools in the wheelbarrow.
We are off to our very own Garden Collective website, a link for which will be shared before we move.
What’s changing?
Our new home will make it easier to find what you love the most, to discover pieces you’ll enjoy in the archive, and it’ll be more obvious about how we all fit together as a collective. There will be more podcasts, talks and lighter pieces, and slightly fewer essays.
We’d love to have spaces to chat more too, and so there will be more opportunities to ask experts, and get involved in conversations about all things horticultural.
On a more practical note, we’ll also make it easier to make sure that you have the emails you want in your inbox without feeling like we are competing with actual gardening.
What isn’t changing?
So what won’t change? It’s still very much us. The Garden Collective writers and talkers that you know and love. Funny bits. Sad bits. Fascinating bits.
What do you need to do?
Absolutely nothing.
The house move will all be managed for us by Scribehound, who will be wrapping up all our precious articles and audio, and they will all magically appear on our new website. We'll be in touch about logging in to the new site in due course.
We hope that you’ll love our new gardening space as much as we do. If you have any questions at all, just hit reply to this email we'll get straight back to you.
What happens to your details
The Garden Collective is moving to new ownership, and from 8th July 2026, it will be run by Alitex Limited, who will continue it exactly as before. As part of that move, the information needed to keep your subscription running, your name, email and subscription details, will transfer to Alitex, who will become responsible for looking after your data (the "data controller") from that date. Alitex will handle your information in line with their privacy policy, which you can read here. Your subscription and everything you enjoy continues uninterrupted.
This is a change of ownership, not a sale of your data; your details move only so the Garden Collective can keep reaching you, and you keep all your usual rights: you can unsubscribe, ask to access your data, or ask for it to be erased at any time.
If you'd rather your data not move to Alitex, that's completely fine. Because our free tier means an account stays active even after a paid subscription ends, the way to opt out of the transfer is to delete your account in your account section before 7th July. Doing so removes your details so they won't transfer across. If you're happy to come with us, which we very much hope you are, there's nothing you need to do.
