Through two issues of this young magazine, Cypress takes readers on road trips, hikes, nature walks, and neighborly gatherings. Inspired by the natural world and the communities connected to them, Cypress began as a series of hand-carved linoleum block prints. This magazine understands that the handheld nature of printed media allows for a closer connection to the photos, essays, and field notes that shape these stories.

At 6x9 inches, this magazine isn’t asking to be placed on a mantle or on a delicate coffee table. With 104 uncoated pages, the thin and small construction of Cypress is designed to be able to be thrown in a tote bag or the pocket on your overalls as you wander.
