According to distributors COMAG: Launched in 1942, not only was Organic Gardening the world’s first organic magazine, but it was the first title in the Rodale Incorporated portfolio. Providing well-researched, practical and timely information and reviews of useful products and services, Organic Gardening has been the essential gardening resource for more than 70 years.
Building on the success of the title and brand, Organic Gardening is relaunching as Organic Life, which Rodale says will be a “stylish guide for living naturally in the modern world.”
More than just growing food, the organic movement of the 21st century is a way of life and mind-set, which is why Organic Life will cover the world of ethical and environmental living.
Featuring food, fashion, health, home, travel, wellbeing, exercise and of course gardening, Organic Life will have everything that readers are looking for in a lifestyle guide, every issue will turn creative inspiration into authentic action for the things readers care about.
With higher-quality paper stock and brighter photographs than its predecessor, Organic Life will have regular features from celebrity chefs Mario Batali and Tom Colicchio, former U.S. Congressman Dennis Kuchinich, as well as many other experts in various fields.
The May/June issue of Organic Life will have articles on yoga, “holistic air travel” and an in-depth feature about walking. Taking in the health benefits of the activity, as well as a political metaphor, the launch issue of Organic Life will have 55 ways that walking changed the world.
Obviously organic gardening and food will still play a huge part in the new magazine and the May/June issue of Organic Life will have 30 of the best seasonal recipes around.
Reflecting all aspects of ethical and sustainable living, new Organic Life will bring together everything for the environmentally-conscious reader who understand that the basic principles of food, home, garden and wellbeing are built from the ground up.
