Garden-Door Press

Garden-Door Press Garden-Door Press is an Ithaca, NY-based publisher of experimental poetry and hybrid writing Its two gardeners are Kina Viola and Marty Cain.

Garden-Door Press is a new micro-press currently growing in Ithaca, NY. It makes chapbooks and broadsides. It believes in process, in excess and overgrowth, in homegrown language watered by tears of the neighbors, in elevated beds that destroy property values. It believes in the DIY ethic. It believes in ruralness. It believes in artifice, in hands and the handmade, but also in the internet and it

For the foreseeable future, we’ll be donating our share of sales of Evan Gray’s THICKETS SWAMPED IN FENCE-COATED BRIARS to , a western North Carolina–based organization providing relief and establishing mutual aid hubs in the wake of Hurricane Helene. GDP would be nothing without the numerous Appalachian poets and thinkers who have influenced us, and our hearts are with the communities affected by the hurricane.
