Garden Magazines

Gardening Magazines are one of the best informational resources available for any home gardener.
Here’s a great selection, available at great prices for yearly subscriptions (sometimes as low as $2 per issue!) with Amazon:

Better Homes and Gardens (1-year) This magazine has a mix of decorating ideas, recipes, gardening, and fashion. It is not all one or the other, so it is kind of like getting four magazines in one.

Mother Earth News This is a country lifestyle service magazine focused on do-it-yourself living, personal achievement, outdoor recreation, thrift and the blending of the old-fashioned with modern ingenuity. Its articles cover equipment, tools, gardening, health and home remedies, home building and repair, fishing, natural food and cooking environmentally-friendly products, recycling, country lore and small scale farming. Currently only available in the US.

Organic Gardening (2-year) Who Reads Organic Gardening Magazine?
Organic Gardening readers are women and men who enjoy growing and eating the freshest food, want a yard that is beautiful year-round yet safe for people, pets and wildlife, and take deep satisfaction from working in harmony with nature. They rely on Organic Gardening for well-researched, in-depth reporting on the best plants to grow in their conditions, the most effective pest and weed control strategies, tips and techniques for keeping plants healthy, plus ideas for sustainable living indoors and out.

Country Gardens (1-year) Discover the secret behind glorious gardens! Perennial, meadow, butterfly, herb ? gardens of all kinds. Beautiful color photos, easy-to-follow planting diagrams, helpful how-to gorgeous results! 4.5 Stars by reviewers.

Fine Gardening Who Reads Fine Gardening?
Fine Gardening is written for gardeners who are passionate about their existing gardens, and are looking for ideas and inspiration for future gardening endeavors. Published six times a year, It presents readers with engaging information and gorgeous four-color photography, in a format that is both educational and accessible. While some gardening experience is assumed, and home ownership is usually implied, much of what is included in Fine Gardening will be of interest to anyone who feels the call to garden, of all levels of experience. You may find yourself saving issue after issue, since all are filled with valuable, practical information, and back issues are valued due to their seasonal nature. 4.5 Stars

The English Garden An English-style garden is, arguably, the quintessential ideal of every serious gardener; THE ENGLISH GARDEN magazine, quite simply, the only magazine devoted to this idyllic gardening tradition. Published bimonthly. Reviewers give this 4.5 stars.

Canadian Gardening Contains stories and photos of homes across the country, new trends in flower and vegetable growing, and landscaping ideas. No Amazon reviews yet, but I buy this one and would give it 4.5 stars for Canadian readers.

Prairie Garden Currently only available in the US, with no reviews yet.

Greenhouse Grower Geared to commercial growers.
