"I am but mad north-north-west: when the wind is southerly I know a hawk from a handsaw."
--Hamlet, Act II, scene ii

Like Shakespeare's Hamlet, the contributors to Hawk & Handsaw know which way the wind blows. They know that a sustainable lifestyle can be messy and meaningful: that it requires reflection, deep philosophical commitment and, more often than not, a good sense of humor. To this end, Hawk & Handsaw celebrates the thinking and reflection that ground sustainable practices and practitioners.

Now in its third volume, the journal explores myriad approaches to creative sustainability through a rich and varied collection of text and visual art.  Our contributors include established artists and writers as well as emerging voices in the field.  In each issue, Hawk & Handsaw we look to offer contributions that challenge convention and tackle the tougher issues that stem from life in a fragile world. Most of all, we look for work that is fresh, honest, and evocative.

Hawk & Handsaw is published annually; our reading period is from August 1st to October 1st. For more information, please visit our submissions page or contact us at hawkandhandsaw@unity.edu.
