Verplanck Publishing

Making things for people who'd rather be outside.

We're a small publisher in Cortland, New York, named for the surveyor who mapped the Adirondacks. That's where we first fell in love with the outdoors, and it's still where we go when we can.

What we're about

Everything we make is meant to go outside with you.

The Forest Preserve belongs to everyone. What we make should help you use it well and leave it in good shape for the next person.

First title

Our first title is in the works. If you'd like to know when it's ready, send a note and we'll tell you. That's the only mail you'll get from us.
