Partnerships
Genuine Garden Guide considers collaborations that suit its focus on garden design literacy and remain clear to readers. We accept selected partner placements across the site when their subject is relevant and their presentation does not blur the line between editorial material and promotion.
Suitable collaborations
Possible projects include clearly identified sponsored articles, campaign material, relevant partner listings and other agreed placements. Proposals should explain the organisation or offering, the intended placement, the audience and any claims or links involved. We do not promise coverage, favourable conclusions or editorial influence in exchange for a partnership.
Clear labels, separate judgement
Sponsored and partner material is labelled plainly wherever it appears. Partner placements are distinguishable from independent editorial recommendations, and a paid placement is not a product test, endorsement or claim of verification by Genuine Garden Guide. We may decline work that is misleading, poorly matched to the subject or difficult to label clearly.
Start a conversation
Send a concise proposal through the Contact page using the partnership option. Include the proposed format, subject, intended placement and relevant disclosure details. Any collaboration proceeds only after its scope and reader-facing label are agreed.
A garden is more than its plants
Paths, edges, materials and views all shape what we notice. Looking closely can change how an existing garden feels, without asking it to become something else.
