Northern California’s Environmental Magazine
About Terrain
The Best Small Magazine Going
Published in one form or another since 1971, Terrain is Northern California’s premier environmental magazine. Regional news and analyses and features on themes such as vineyard expansions, drought, oil spills, development, anti-GMO legislation, and food security attract a broad swath of readers, urban and rural. Terrain serves up incisive interviews with academics, authors, and activists, and we aren’t afraid to ask hard questions. We’re independent journalism at its best—in a world where the independent media is an endangered species.
