ISSUE #1
Summer Solstice 2025
INTRODUCING
ThePatch.News
A seasonal public journal and digital commons

Launching on the Summer Solstice 2025, ThePatch.News moves in step with Earth's seasonal cycles - honoring regenerative action across land, systems, education, and policy. It exists to recognize the people and projects shaping a future as part of living systems, not above them.
Each season, 8 Recognition Awards are granted to individuals and collectives making a difference in regeneration. Recipients are featured in the journal, receive microgrants, and hold symbolic NFTs.
This is not a pay-to-play platform.
There are no ads, no fees, no performances-for-hire - just transparent structure, lean operations, modest support mechanisms, and earned visibility.
