Founded in 2025, Southlands is a media company celebrating the wild South in all its forms—and the diverse ways Southerners connect with the natural world.

Our flagship product is our biannual print journal: two 140+-page issues each year, printed on high-quality stock in an oversized 9.5"×12" format and designed to be kept, not tossed.
