Issue 31: Simple -- Completely shipped! We've sent out every pre-order and subscription. If you haven't gotten your issue yet, please email support@chickpeamagazine.com!

Issue 32: Vintage -- On hold! Because of the coronavirus, we're unable to finish production of our issue, print, or ship in the large quantities we would normally be able to. We're working on as much as we can, but because of the nature of the quarantine, it's out of our hands currently to know when we'll be able to get it shipped. In the meantime, please check out our:

Special Edition: STAYING IN -- This is a 200 page, free digital issue featuring some of our very best work over the years, all centered around being at home right now. It includes tips and stories on self-care, help around the house, and of course, comfort foods and DIYs to make. If you haven't received it yet (we sent it out to all our subscribers & mailing lists), please contact support@chickpeamagazine.comor sign up for our mailing list to receive the issue.

Be sure to follow us on Instagram for constant updates about where we are in production, printing, and shipping. Our issues are meant to last, so we take extra care to make sure it's as perfect as we can get it - that means that we aren't like InTouch, Woman's World, etc, each issue is a work of love.

Currently, we ship all of our orders in uncoated cardboard with a strip of tape. We have decided to stop wrapping issues in plastic, even for waterproofing, because the amount of damaged packages is so small that it's worth it to us to not add to the plastic waste in this world. (If you do have a damaged package, please message us and we'll send out a new package ASAP, with plastic if you request!)

We're working hard to reduce our plastic waste entirely in our business, but there are some limitations to what we can do. All of our posters and calendars have to be shipped in a stiff cardboard backer and a plastic sleeve, to prevent damage which are much more likely with those products.

All of our store orders are shipped in cardboard with reused paper. All of our packing slips are printed on 100% recycled paper.

Areas we're looking to improve: using paper tape instead of plastic tape and using recycled plastic sleeves for posters.

We print all of our issues in limited runs, but every so often we'll print a few more if there's demand for it. You can join this mailing list to be notified when older issues are available again.

1. To print a magazine, you need a lot of up-front money. For the amount we print, it's a 5-figure number that we've just never had. (Remember, we don't have any advertising or investors!) If we sell a few before they're printed, we can actually afford our first payment, which gets the printing process moving. 

2. It lets us afford things like packing materials, without which we wouldn't be able to ship anything.

3. It helps us gauge how many people will buy the issue, preventing us from ordering too many and wasting money.

4. It makes us able to ship in bulk, which saves us an incredible amount of time.

5. Making a quality publication takes time, and with that extra time comes a beautiful issue.

Pre-orders are a necessity for us - without them, we wouldn't be able to pay our printer the large up-front costs of printing issues in bulk. They're great for you, too - you get a 20% discount on your issue total and you're guaranteed an issue in our small, limited runs of printing.

How do pre-orders work? We set up a dedicated pre-order time for about 2 weeks. At the end of that period,  we get the issues printed, which takes anywhere from 4-5 weeks. We then package everything up ourselves and send them out with lots of love, and packing tape.
