Using a popular search engine and the keywords “ organic farming magazine” revealed over nine and a half million results. If you are shocked that there are that many possible organic farming magazine choices, keep this in mind: not only are there generic, across the board publications but those that are focused on different aspects of organic farming as well as those that focus on particular types of crops. Each type of plant or animal that can be raised on an organic farm may have at least one or two different magazines to choose from.
Some of the advantages of reading an organic farming magazine include the ability to read about the experiences of others, not only what has worked for them but those that have failed as well. There are other articles that can be of great use for the new organic farmer or for those that are just interested in the business. In many, there are other features that can make these a very valuable asset in your organic farming education.
In a rural area, there might be more than a few organic farming magazine choices in the local library, allowing you to read them for free. In other areas or in those areas where the library has very limited choices, there may not be any organic choices at all. In those cases, you have to purchase your own organic farming magazines.
If you are a writer and are interested in getting your name in print, you can try to submit an article to an organic farming magazine. While the circulation numbers for these magazines might be fairly small, it still looks good on your resume when you query other editors for future work.
Before you send any of your work to the organic farming magazine of your choice, you should understand how to make these submissions. There are different guidelines for each of the magazines including some that only accept submissions via email while others will take posted as well as emailed articles.
Another option is the chance to get your photography or artwork into the organic farming magazine. Again, make sure that you are reading the submissions guidelines before you send anything in. if there is a contest which has the potential for bigger money than what is ordinarily paid for the submissions, hold off and take your chances for the contest. If you do not win, it is possible that your submission would not have been published anyway.
Before you subscribe to an organic farming magazine that you are not sure of, request a free copy. In some cases, it is simply a matter of sending in a request form, however not all of these advertise this fact. Even if the magazine does not ordinarily offer free subscriptions, you might be able to get a backdated issue so that you can see if it is the right choice for you.
