Letter from the Founder
By Zola Ellen
June 29th, 2026
Welcome to Issue 00 of Yarrow Magazine.
In the beginning of Cancer season — after Juneteenth, before Black August — this is a love letter to my Cancerian daddy, who is no longer earthside but deserved a little more softness while he was here.
Told through storytelling. Through wit and whimsy. Through the radical act of slowing down and showing up for each other.
Grace Lee Boggs said, "A revolution that is based on the people exercising their creativity in the midst of devastation is one of the great historical contributions of humanity."
Every person in these pages is proof of that. Every person reading this work is proof of that.
