I loved MAP and loved writing my Gardenlust column for them, this is such a sad loss, but what an exceptional resource and what incredible writing they have supported 💙

@MAP_magazine's totally unique publishing platform will be much missed. I've always been grateful to Alice and Laura for giving me and Suzanne the opportunity of a lifetime as guest editors back in 2016. The archive remains a sparkler✨
