A magazine crafted like a book. A record of endings and beginnings. A companion for the times we’re living in.
The first print edition of Schumacher Magazine is a meticulously crafted, coffee-table-quality gathering of essays, art, stories, and ideas from the extended Schumacher community. Its 166 pages invites readers into a spacious, beautifully designed journey through the themes of transition, grief, imagination, and renewal that define this moment.
This inaugural issue – The Great Turning – features contributions from Helena Norberg-Hodge, Satish Kumar, Fritjof Capra, Phoebe Tickell, alumni from across the world, and many other relatives and friends of the Schumacher lineage. It brings together ecology, philosophy, craft, animism, economics, and spiritual practice.
Born from the closure of Schumacher College in 2024, the magazine carries the College’s ethos forward as a living commons: a place where learning remains intimate, attention is devotional, and beauty is treated as a form of truth.
Printed in a limited run and designed with high-quality materials, this edition is crafted to be kept, shared, and displayed. It is a piece of the Schumacher story you can hold in your hands.
Inside you’ll find:
– Essays, long-form reflections, and field reports
– Artworks and photography
– Poetry and ritual pieces
– Lineage voices from across decades
– A weaving of head, hands, and heart
This is more than a magazine. It is a companion for the turning of an age.

we are the storytellers
of a future that is free
we are the future weavers
unravelling from me to we
we are the future troubadours
singing songs of emergence
we are the future guardians
of heart-led intelligence
we are the future midwives
birthing beauty for the whole
we are the future magi
spell casting from our restless souls
we are the future blacksmiths
hammering shields and spears
we are the future warriors
defending life and facing fears
we are the future growers
tending to our weeds
we are the future harvest
ripening fruit of forgotten seeds
we are the future drummers
keeping time with love
we are the future ancestors
of beings bright as stars
we are the future sailors
on rising future seas
we are the future elders
what will be our legacy?
