General Submission Guidelines

Submission Guidelines: Poems, Prose, and Art. Please do not submit more than 3 pieces. Do not submit any works that have been published before. Must be original work and no AI. All works must be inclusive, anti-racist, anti-sexist, and non-discriminatory.

Publication: Limited print copies are available for all future anthologies and poetry collections. Digital copies can be purchased in our online store.

Fee: Varies

We’ve proudly offered no submission fees in the past. As a small, independent press, we need to re-introduce a modest submission fee to help cover the costs of production, web hosting, printing, and paying the people who make this anthology possible. We deeply appreciate your support and understanding as we continue this work. If you are unable to pay the fee, please email us at plantsandpoetry.journal@gmail.com for an alternative submission process.

Please contact us through our submission form if you have any questions!
