Magazines of Agriculture Interest
Mary Jane Farm Magazine: Deborah Needleman, House & Garden editor at large,
says:
"MaryJanesFarm is charming and well done —
hugely appealing. It is homey, and smart and interesting ... part Martha
Stewart Living, part Oprah magazine, part Organic Style, part Nation, part
Ladies Home Journal ... full of tips, ideas, and information."
Hobby Farm Magazine: HOBBY FARMS is a magazine for small-farm owners. Many of our readers come from urban rather than rural backgrounds and are new to their industries. They are engaged in a wide variety of activities, including livestock and fruit and vegetable farming, beekeeping, winemaking, etc. (They are also based out of Lexington, Kentucky!)
CountrySide Magazine COUNTRYSIDE is the truly original country magazine (established 1917) serving that branch of the Voluntary Simplicity movement seeking greater self-reliance (homesteading), with emphasis on home food production. This includes gardening, small-scale livestock, cooking, food preservation, resource conservation, recycling, frugality, money management, alternative energy, old-time skills, home business, and much more. COUNTRYSIDE features reader-written personal experiences and photos straight out of our family albums, making each issue just like a long letter from friends who are living the good life, beyond the sidewalks.
Small Farmer's Journal Conceived in 1976, Small Farmer's Journal is a large (11 x 14 inch) handsome 132 page black and white quarterly which is more community odyssey than magazine. It is packed to over-full with more information than you might find in three or four conventional magazines. Supported 100% by its readership, this folksy and feisty publication, a true clarion of free speech in the best old sense of the phrase, has been a vibrant and exciting platform for engaging far-flung ideas about anything pertinent to the small family farm experience.
Farm Journal Farm Journal, the
largest national U.S. farm magazine, is a prime source of practical
information on crops and livestock for farm families. Published 12 times a
year, the magazine emphasizes agricultural production, technology and
policy. As the flagship of Farm Journal Media, Farm Journal has a rich
history spanning more than 125 years of service to U.S. agriculture, quality
journalism and innovations in circulation technology.
Farm World World Media publishes "Farm World" newspaper. It is the largest farm newspaper in the midwest and features Kentucky in several of its articles. You can also find out the latest with auctions and farm machinery/livestock sales.
