The Phoenix is different: In a world where scrolling & superficial understanding is the norm, I’m asking you to sign up and support local journalism. Here’s why I started The Phoenix.

And here’s how you can help!

Sign up for my email newsletter! It’s free, and it’s every Friday. Lots of community news headlines + event listings.

Want to read the stories? Please subscribe! Know that when you do, you’re directly supporting independent, credible journalism written just for Peachlanders, by a fellow Peachlander. With newspapers leaving, and big media companies pulling reporters out of smaller areas for more regional coverage, all that small-town stuff can be lost: The nuances and history of our District council (I’ve been covering them for five years now), the community events, and all those little things that wouldn’t otherwise get media attention – that’s what I do! So, if you want to be informed – and you’re willing to take the time to read – The Phoenix is for you! Just $6 a month, and your first month is free.

My website can always be found when www.thepeachlandphoenix.com is saved in your web browser’s bookmarks.

And you can also donate directly to sustaining local, independent news here in Peachland.

One thing I’m really thankful for in all this? After four and a half years, I have some amazingly solid support. People who understand why community news is important. People who are involved in making Peachland better. People who want to support a fellow Peachlander, and a unique small business. So, whether you advertise (only $75 / week!), sign up for the emails, subscribe, or just spread the word – all of it is very much appreciated!
