It's kinda funny to see you all abandoning Mother Earth News. I gave up on them for the same reason more than 20 years ago.

Gotta say though, they were the first and it used to be an amazing magazine, full of useful information.

I made the mistake of advertising in there about 30 years ago, so I'm curious to know what it costs to advertise mags now. Then it was nearly 500 dollars as I recall, just for a classified ad. I was appaled at the initial cost, buy man, it paid off in spades! Taught me a LOT!

I subscribe to: Hobby Farms, Countryside, Outside, National Geographic Adventure, Trail Runner and Mother Earth News (which I happen to enjoy). I sort of feel the same way about Outside Magazine as many of you do about M.E.N. I've been subscribing to it for over 21 years, but lately, it seems like it has become not much more than a list of the Top 10 places you must live, the Top 25 Adventure Sports you must do, the Top 50 dream vacations you must take....etc...

My husband subscribes to Scientific American and Swim Magazine.

I have been subscribing to COUNTRYSIDE for nearly 15 years. I have several copies of MEN in the 1970's and they are more than great then. I'm probably going to let my MEN subscription lapse because we have little to nothing in common with Kennedy Jr. or the girl who played Elaine on Sienfield. We do have many many things in common with those who are struggling to make it financially day to day, who are trying to live more simple lives, and who are really trying to make a difference on their small homesteads....as are exemplified every two months in COUNTRYSIDE. We also truly enjoy Backwoods Home.

Countryside and small stock journal.


MEN went the way of "wall Street" so I no longer subscribe.

Well lets see, Small Farm Today, Mother Earth News, National Geographic (over 40 years and I have almost all issues), Woodsmith, Wood, Home Shop Machinist, Readers Digest, Smithsonian, Natural History, American Hunter (NRA), and the NCAA Bulletin. Took Organic Gardening many years ago but no longer, also tookCountryside for a year but didn't renew. Rural Heritage, Small Farmers Journal, and Hobby Farm all sound interesting I will check them out. That is a lot of magazines but I seldom sleep more than 5 1/2 or 6 hours a night so I do a lot of reading.
