A beautiful, well-kept garden. That’s what I think of Willa’s newsletter, Dark Properties.

Here's how the editor-gardener sums up her project: "a future-focused newsletter connecting personal and planetary ecologies."

Her interviews and essays connect to that spine:

A retreat into darkness☽
What can we learn by reframing our darkest moments?
Tech support for a heated planet
Sanjana Paul on studying data centers, leaving NASA, being a “climate person,” and incrementally building our decarbonization muscles.
Skincare at the end of the world
The algorithm wants me to think that aging is ugly. Is it?

If you're a newsletter publisher, don't miss this tech stack piece highlighting ownership and intentionality. She takes the form as seriously as its content.
